This Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver gives you a dependable way to tow or carry gear every day. It’s rated for 3,500 lbs maximum gross trailer weight and 525 lbs maximum tongue weight, so it’s ready for small trailers, cargo carriers, or bike racks. The 2" x 2" receiver opening is the standard size for most hitches, meaning your existing accessories or new ones will fit right in without extra adapters.
You get a sturdy hitch that doesn’t ruin the look of your vehicle. The concealed cross tube keeps everything tucked up under the bumper so only the receiver and safety chain loops show. That means better ground clearance and a cleaner, more OEM-style appearance once installed.
This hitch is built for an easy DIY install. It bolts straight to the frame with no drilling or welding needed, using the included mounting hardware. The fully welded steel construction ensures a solid fit and lasting strength once it’s on there.
The gloss black powder coat finish sits over a protective base coat that fights rust and corrosion. Combined with precision, robotic welds and a sturdy square-tube design, this hitch stays solid through years of towing and hauling. Ball mount, pin, and clip are sold separately.
Ratings & Reviews
This product is no different than any other Curt hitches in that it is made very well. Installation was very straightforward and easy. I definitely recommend this product. etrailer sent the hitch out very quickly and it arrived on time. Great company to deal with.
A lot easier install than I thought it would be. Followed directions, took about an hour. Final installation looks fine and pretty unobtrusive. Using the hitch for a bicycle rack for now but plan to add wiring for light trailer towing in the future.
ETrailer sent the hitch quickly and it was as-described. Honestly I didn't install the hitch myself. Pep Boys did it for $50. The mechanic said it was an easy installation.
Good fit, best to have a helper or at least a jack stand to hold one end up while working with the other.
This is not the first time I have purchased products from Etrailer. In both instances I was very pleased with the whole experience. The Etrailer web sight makes it easy to get correct part for my application. With the hitch purchase special tools were included to make the installation easier and faster. The etrailer web sight videos showing how to install the hitch were a great help. I also was very please with the speed at which I received the hitch.
Great setup, bolted right up
Nice hitch! The Buick Envision Installation Video does not show how to slide the hitch inside the bumper on the driver's side. This side is more difficult because of foot kick tailgate release sensor. I was afraid I might break the mounting sensor bracket when forcing the hitch under the bumper. I removed the two top mounting bolts knowing they could be difficult to re-install once the hitch was in. I was glad I did. With the right length 1/4 tool extensions it wasn't to hard. Hitch looks great installed.
Trailer hitch was well built. I would recommend measuring the width before working it up against the frame. Mine was 3/8 inch wider than the frame holes. Simple fix, I stuck it in the vise and tweaked it. Couple extra steps taking back out and in. Really nice hitch.
Great delivery time.
Arrived 2 days earlier
Thankyou
Pretty easy install, took me about an 1-1/2 hours to install by myself. Watched a couple of the videos on my make and model. Plus one on the wiring.
This is the third hitch I’ve installed from etrailer, they were all easy.

I sold the car two months after installing the hitch, so sorry no 1 year update.
I reviewed this the other day, but wanted to add a couple of Pictures. Job was pretty straight forward. I did it by myself (68 year old) without a hitch... oh... I guess I did have a hitch... but installed it without any problems. I just put one side in first and the bracket holds it while you slip the other side in, move it into position and bolt it up. The little wire used to put the bolt in place works very good. Nice outfit! My only regret is that I didn't research the products well enough. same hitch made by Drawtight has a higher weight capacity than the Curt, but it is not by much. It also sticks out just a bit more. I am pleased!

I continue to be very happy with my hitch. Still looks great and does the job for which it is designed.
Looks good,looks like it should go on easy.....more after installed
This hitch was a little difficult for me to install, while working alone, being 75 years old at the time. But, I can assure you that with a hydraulic jack to lift my car and with jackstands for safety - I did it. It would be much easier with two people. The directions were perfect. The fit was exact. It looks like it came with the car.. The wiring directions and and installation were perfect. I am very, very pleased with this hitch.

Great. No problems. I stand by my original comments.
Installed the hitch with no issues. You tube video help the installation greatly.
Quick and easy install I had the hitch on on less than an hour following etrailer video tutorial delivery was fast and product came in great condition
Received as promised excellent quality and fit. Very satisfied with this purchase. Staff at etrailer is a pleasure to work with extremely helpful and knowledgeable about all towing needs.
Fast shipping and great communication, item is as described and best part was the easy installation! Can’t wait to mount the bikes and hit the trails with the kiddos !
Fit perfectly on my Buick 2020 envision. Took about 30 minutes to install the hitch as someone who is generally handy and has a set of ramps and needed tools. Received the parts on schedule (3 days) with free shipping. Would absolutely buy again.
I installed my new receiver hitch on my new 2019 Buick Envision so we can attach our bick rack on it. The installation was very easy and no hidden surprises. It took about 1 hour the instructions were easy to read. We are very satisfied with this product.
Took me longer to gather the tools than to install the hitch! The one thing I did was to remove the lift gate control from inside the bumper so as not to break the mounting. Once the hitch was in place I put the mount back inside the bumper. Works perfectly and is really a breeze to install. I really like the way it's all tucked up inside the bumper cover, it makes it look so much more factory!
The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2”
(Item # C13405) was a perfect fit for my 2019 Buick Envision. As described by eTrailer, it was a simple drop-in installation with no modifications needed.
The instructions recommend two people for the installation, to help maneuver the receiver frame into place. This involves some flexing of the plastic bumper and sliding the receiver frame around some bumper brackets on both sides. However, I was able to do this myself, with the vehicle on the ground (no lifting needed). I used a small tool box to support one end of the hitch frame while I jockeyed the other end into position and onto the stud. With one side in position, I moved to the other side and was able to get the frame fully into place … and then bolted in. It would have been easier with two people, but it can be done by one person with some planning and patience.
The instructions were thorough and easy to follow, and the entire installation was completed in ~ 30 minutes.
The Envision is equipped with a hands-free power lift gate, which is activated by kicking your foot beneath the sensor at the rear of the vehicle (driver’s side). There were some questions about whether or not this sensor array and wiring would interfere with the installation of the trailer hitch receiver. In my case, the sensor array and wiring were out of the way and did not impact my installation … and the lift gate sensor works perfectly after the hitch receiver was installed.
I purchased and installed this hitch receiver primarily to mount a bike carrier. Since this hitch receiver is set back a little bit underneath the bumper, which is visually more appealing, there was a concern that the bike carrier (which swings in and out of place for access to the lift gate) would not have enough clearance from the vehicle and bumper. However, I confirmed that the location of the hitch pin hole (which is 6 1/2” set back from the bumper’s outer edge) would allow the bike carrier to be installed with more than enough clearance.
The attached photos provide some ideas about the spacing and overall appearance of the hitch receiver and bike carrier.
I am very pleased with this hitch receiver. It is well made, very sturdy, and easily installed. The ordering and delivery process was quick and efficient, and eTrailer provides a lot of useful information and videos to support the installation process. I would certainly recommend this product and supplier to my family and friends.
Install was simple and as described by instructions. Fit well and looks good
Everything is fine except the relays - they click very loudly every time the turn signal or brakes are applied. I think I'll have to spend the money to get different relays now.
Thank you the timely shipping
Absolutely loved the installation video! Accurate time estimates for installation. Fair price and great package tracking.

After a year, I’m still perfectly satisfied with the hitch. Works well for our bike rack.
