I would be worried doing something like this in the states. To many sue happy lawyers wanting to eat anything alive for free. In Canada, I would certainly do it if needed. We are not talking hauling a camper long distances on a regular basis. More like I need to haul some materials from the local home depot once in a blue moon. The car is actually rated to take 1200lbs towing capacity in Europe and by adding brakes to the trailer you up that to over 1500lbs. This basically says the weak point is only braking up to 1200 lbs and then other weaknesses kick in after 1500lbs if you take care of the braking. My wife's Nissan cube is rated for 0 and so is the Versa. This is most likely based on the cvt tranny and it's 10 year 200,000 mile warranty

That being said, we do have a hitch on the cube and we do occasionally tow the PWC in summer and the sled in winter. We do not tow across country, longest distance ever covered is about an hour. If the tranny does ever have problems on the cube and they ask about the hitch, no problem, we are avid cyclists and do have a bike rack for the hitch. We never tow anything as this is not allowed.
