• Why is There Only a Class I Trailer Hitch for my 2025 Toyota Corolla Hatchback?
  Hello Eric. Congrats on the new 2025 Corolla Hatchback! Yes, the only hitch that I see for the 2025 Toyota Corolla Hatchback is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11567 which is a Class I with a 1 1/4" receiver. I checked the previous years and it looks like they only had a Class I as well. When a vehicle only has a class I available, it's because that vehicle is not supposed to be hauling anything heavier. I would check your owners manual to see what Toyota says the vehicle can handle....

• Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver to Fit 2013 Volkswagen Passat 2.0L Diesel
  For your 2013 Volkswagen Passat Diesel I recommend the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24880.

If you're going to be towing a trailer with your Passat you'll also need a wiring harness. The...

• Is Stabilizer Strap Really Required when Using Trailer Hitch on 2014 Volkswagen Passat
  The stabilizer strap like part # 18050 is required by Curt on their lighter duty trailer hitches like the # C11234 you referenced when carrying a non-supported load like a bike rack. I attached a video that shows exactly how it is used typically. Since I personally wouldn't want to mess with using the strap I would recommend you go with the Draw Tite hitch part # 24880 instead as it does not have this requirement. These hitches are pretty simple to install. A DIYer like yourself would...

• Can a Trailer Hitch be Installed on a 2015 Chevy Sonic Hatchback with Upgraded Exhaust
  Trailer hitches are designed for and tested on stock vehicles so there isn't an easy way to determine if any of them would be compatible with the aftermarket exhaust.

  As long as the gross trailer weight is under the 1,500 pound capacity and the tongue weight is under the 150 pound capacity of the 2015 Honda Crosstour then you will be good to go as far as occasionally towing the trailer.
