Pretty simple install. Even ordered a wiring kit for the 14 Cruze for trailer lights also. It takes a little level of knowledge but pretty simple install for both kits.

Curt hitch for my 15 Cruze diesel. The kit was superbly easy to install in my driveway on my back. Hardware was easy to spot and use, the hitch itself is well built and bolt on with 0 modifications. I used the etrailer [video] page that outlined my cars install video. All of it was identical to their video and paper instructions. Price beat amazon, the video and paper instructions where clear and perfectly useful. None of those instructions that are English translated and hardly make sense here. I combined with the curt no cut wiring kit. Wow was it way easier then cut and splicing like the old days. Factory brake harness plugs into the little converter box for trailer, the hardest Part is running a power wire from battery to trunk For the box. The kit made child’s play of the wiring and worked perfectly for my LED trailer. Sure it’s 80$ but worth it not to hack up your factory harness and risk upsetting the body control module. I also used manufacturer [installation] video from curt and it was 100% my car in the video not a approximation.

Trailer hitch has been a fantastic edition to our Cruze diesel. Normally used for hauling around my bike rack, but recently came in handy on a road trip where I needed more storage space. Bought a hitch rack and was able to easily haul everything I needed to without an issue. Having the hitch on the car has greatly increased its uses for me and I highly recommend it for any Cruze owner looking for an easy to install hitch.

Purchased hitch for my wifes new Chevy Cruze Diesel so she can haul a few bikes. Installation was a snap. Took less than 30 minures from start to finish. Looks good and works great.

Fairly simple to install I put this one on solo and didn't have to trim anything and only had to drop the exhaust in one spot when directions say 2 places. Took me solo about an hour and it was the first hitch I've ever installed.

Second time ordering and both times product is exactly as described and good price. The problem is with the shipping. Paid for 2-3 day shipping. Was notified the same day that I placed the order that they verified the order and that it was in stock. It took them a week to ship it from the wearhouse. And then another 5 days to get to me.

See what our Experts say about this CURT Trailer Hitch
- Can 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Tow a Trailer with Curt Trailer Hitch ReceiverThe Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11282 is confirmed to fit your 2014 Chevrolet Cruze as long as you don't have a diesel engine. If yours is a diesel you'll need # C11371 instead. I checked an online copy of your owner's manual and your Cruze is able to tow a trailer that is 1,000 pounds or less. You should verify with your printed copy to be sure. To tow a trailer you'll also need a ball mount, hitch ball, pin and clip, and trailer wiring. To power the trailer's lights use the wiring...
view full answer... - Comparing Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 11282 to # 11371 for 2014 Chevy Cruze FitThe Curt # C11282 for gas models of the Chevy Cruze and # C11371 for diesel models of the Chevy Cruze are identical in the mounting locations. The difference is in the drop of the # C11371 for diesel models is 5-1/4 inches for exhaust clearance compared to the drop of the # C11282 being 3.88 inches from the mount to the top of the receiver tube according to my contact at Curt. The gas model will give you better ground clearance and will only work on the gas model where the diesel model...
view full answer... - Which Curt Hitch Fits 2016 Chevrolet Cruze LTHi Tim; right away I can tell you that the # C11371 does not fit your 2016 Chevy Cruze LT. This is designed to fit the 2014 - 2015 models. I can't add that picture you linked here since we don't have the rights to it but I believe you have a 2016 Cruze Limited LT. You can compare it to the picture attached below. If you aren't sure, I recommend checking with your local dealer. Based on this and your measurement I believe the correct hitch would be the # C11425. The distance between the...

- Can the Curt Trailer Hitch C11371 be Used to Tow a Trailer with a 2014 Chevrolet Cruze The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11371 can absolutely be used to tow a U-Haul trailer. However, the towing capacity of your Cruze is only 1,000 lbs so the trailer cannot exceed this figure. I was able to look up a few of the U-Haul trailers and there are some under this capacity. In addition to the above trailer hitch you will also need a trailer wiring harness like the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # C56214, a ball mount like the Curt Drawbar part # C45522, and...

We have not had a chance to install this harness yet so we do not have an installation video, but I went ahead and linked the written instructions for you. Since you do not have spare tire access you will just need to route the harness a different way to get to both the passenger and driver side connectors. If...
view full answer... - Hitch Recommendation for a 2015 Chevy CruzeIf you have a gas engine in your 2015 Chevy Cruze you would want the Curt Hitch part # C11282, if you have a diesel engine you would want the part # C11371. For a ball mount you would want the part # C45522, 1-7/8 inch ball part # 19256, 2 inch ball # 19258. If you are looking for a bike rack the Swagman XTC2 part # S64670 is a great option. It's one of our most popular racks and has been reviewed very well.
