A cover assembly for a hitch assembly includes a cover and a cover lock assembly. The cover is coupled to the body component for movement between an open position and a closed position. In the open position, the cover permits access to a hitch lock assembly configured to secure a hitch to a hitch receiver and in the closed position, the cover inhibits access to the hitch lock assembly. The cover lock assembly is configured to releasably secure the cover to the hitch receiver when the cover is in the closed position. The cover lock assembly includes a locked configuration and an unlocked configuration. In the locked configuration, the cover is inhibited from moving from the closed position to the open position. In the unlocked configuration, the cover is permitted to move from the closed position to the open position.
