Tech Tip
No drilling through vehicle frame required for installation , Exhaust must be temporarily lowered for installation , Underbody trim panel must be modified or trimmed if present
What sold me is that that your product is made in USA and had a 50 lb greater weight limit compared to other receivers on the market. Everything fit perfect.
I went together well. Fit and finish are good.
great product, as advertised

fantastic
Purchased this for my 2017 Regal and had a local mechanic install it for me. Probably could have done it myself, but was not so inclined. Has worked out just fine, no complaints. I use the hitch for my Thule bike rack.

Still nothing to complain about. I have used this for long distance transport of heavy ebike and rack and it has held up without any issues.
I purchased this trailer hitch for my 2020 Chevrolet Impala. They said the Car is rated for 350lb tongue weight,
and 3500 lb tow capacity (same specs as the Trailer hitch).Watched a couple [online] videos before tackling the install. Backed the car up on car ramps and got started. Install was not difficult at all. I've used the hitch for pulling a small utility trailer, a bike rack for my bikes and even a 6'x12' V nose enclosed trailer. I definitely recommend this Trailer hitch.
I've had nothing but positive experiences with E-Trailer on previous purchases so on my new car I kept my business where it deserved to stay, shopping around locally I found eTrailer was actually the cheapest for the same hitch that others in my area wanted $300 for. Install was extremely simple, muffler would need to be lowered but luckily for my the factory mufflers were removed and replaced with flowmasters making install extremely simple, easy to install at home, will need an extra pair of hands to hold the hitch up till its bolted then smooth sailing, I installed this to tow my Jet Ski and already used it and didn't let me down. Highly recommended.
Product arrived seemed promising watched all the install videos the issue came when installing it myself. I was installing on a Chevy Malibu 2015. The clearance for the exhaust is terrible. You will either have to replace the exhaust hanger to account for sag from being a few years old. After getting install there was still a rattle from the rear exhaust hanger touching. Wrapping a rubber hose around the hanger easily fixed this but still annoying. I have not actually used the hitch yet but as other stated it hangs pretty low. I’ll update the review after a couple uses.
I can't say enough good things about the experience with etrailer or the product they sold me. I got the best price and free shipping within 5 days from order date (MO to SC). They even fortified the box where pressure points would be in shipping to ensure a safe and quality product was delivered. Curt makes a great product and I hope to use both etrailer and Curt in the future.
the only recommendation I will make is, if they ask what vehicle this hitch will be installed on so they are not wasting shipping weight and steel on sending two brackets for different installations when connecting to the suspension mount.
This worked great on my 2018 Impala LT and the installation instructions were pretty clear as to which bracket to use for my installation .
I also bought the MAXTOW 1.25 to 2 inch adapter with a 4.5 inch rise for my accessory (Cargo Basket). While the actual tongue weight drops to about 100 pounds (factoring in the weight of the adapter, cargo basket and extension-physics) I only intend to store bulky light weight items on the basket and free up space in the trunk for beach trips!
In a little less than 1 hour we were finished with the install, approx. 5 min. was used to unpack the hitch. Once the muffler was removed it was very easy to install the rear bolts but make sure you replace the muffler before securing the back of the hitch to the frame.
The trailer hitch will be used to carry our bikes to various trails and to the beach.
The hitch receiver itself is fine and bolted on fairly easily once I deciphered the somewhat unclear instructions. I found the directions somewhat lacking and they contained some incorrect hardware sizes. (referenced 8mm bolts that needed to be removed on the exhaust hanger when in fact they were 13mm.)
I found video on (online) much more helpful than the pictures in the included directions.
Good product that fit my car without much fuss. Glad I bought it to pull small trailer for mower or few supplies.
I installed this receiver on my new 2019 Impala to keep from putting gas cans in my new trunk, the installation was simple and works great . Just what I needed and would recommend it to others.
My item was ordered and received in two days. KUDOS for the team that made it happen. It was just in time to have it ready for our weekend trip.
The installation was a breeze even though I didn't have a car lift at my disposal it still only took my son and myself an hour to install it.
See the finished photo below with the bike rack connected.
Everything in great condition. Part missing quickly replaced. Love the videos for installation.

Had to sell the car with hitch on it, have 4 others. Will get another when deciding on vehicle to use moving forward.
The receiver is a perfect fit and install was quick and easy (even without a helper). Hardware and install instructions are exactly as described. We can now easily take our bicycles to some cool new places to ride.
This custom hitch is a perfect fit on my 2015 Chevrolet Malibu LT the installation was easy and fast with only having to chase the threads on the car's unused muffler mounting brackets This hitch has had no effect on the vehicles handling The only thing to think about with the hitch is when crossing ditches or speed bump like entrances/exits as the hitch will hit the ground. Another great feature is it required no alterations to the car and is only noticeable if you look for it
THE PRODUCT IS ON THE MONEY.AND REAL FAST DELIVEREY ..THEN HAD IT INSTALLED FOR 50.00..FOR AROUND $ 200 WITH A GREAT PRODUCT..WHEN OTHERS WANTED TO SELL ME A CHEAPER HITCH WITH INSTALL FOR 375.00
This hitch is very nice and heavy duty. Installation was easy and I did it by myself. But a helper would have made it even easier. The wiring was easy as well. Only hard part of the hole installation was getting the black cable through the fire wall and ev ed n that was not to bad. Just attach the end to a hanger with electrical tape and carefully push through rubber grommet. And the fact that there's no drilling is a plus. The cheapest local shop wanted almost $400.00 installed, I saved around $200.00 , love it. Thank you etrailer. My go to place for all of my trailer needs.

Great, working as it should.
This will make a good hitch for a bike rack or light towing but I would not use to tow a large trailer. Attachment points are to sheet metal that holds up the exhaust system and to a frame attachement for the rear suspention. These are not very beefy and would be concerned about damaging the car, but great for a couple of bikes

That was for a Buick Lacrosse which I do not have anymore but I was happy with the hitch
I have used allot of e commerce companies in the past but my experience with e trailer has been nothing short of perfection! From the Customer Service to the prices do the fast delivery I could not be happier! If you need a hitch or a bike rack this is your place! Thank you E trailer.

Excellent, love it!
Still holding strong. It held up real well for my cross country trip in December 2018 carrying two bikes from South Carolina to Nevada. That’s over 2100 miles through heavy rains & snow with absolutely no issues.
I ordered several parts to complete the towing set up. All parts came at the same time in just in a few days. Tracking was easy to follow and arrived on time . I followed video instruction that I found on web site. Pictures and instructions came with shipment, and was easy to follow. When installing the two bolts , one on each end , I added flat washers before applying the two nuts, to finish the job.

I have used this hitch many times, there are no broken welds, no broken bolts, I truly trust your product.
Very well built. Instructions are easy to read and follow. It only took about a hour to install which is pretty good considering I am 72 years old & did it by myself. My only objection is the box says made in U.S.A. but the parts say made in China!!! That's why no 5 stars.
Excellent rack, the directions are pretty poor, but the etrailer videos makes up for that. Installed easily and works great with my Kuat rack.
I purchased a trailer hitch and trailer wiring harness for my 2013 Chevy Malibu. The hitch was very easy to install on did not take long. The wiring harness was a plug and play variety for it was pretty easy as well. The only difficulty came in running the power cable under the car to the battery up front. Overall I am very well pleased with the products. The instructions that came with it were ok, but the online videos were great.
