Very good Company to order from. The hitch was easy to install

Worked perfectlyGreat product, installed with ease. Would have no problem buying this brand again. Installed so easily. Watch the video first then install. Great product, fast shipping and easy installation.



by:

It was a little slow for a beginner but, had fun putting it together in my garage. Very Happy with the purchase.



by:

If the hitch goes in as easy as the video shows, I give it a 5 star rating. If it doesn't you'll hear me curse from upstate NY to Arizona. Excellent quality and fast shipping. Will do business again.

2010 Dodge Journey

Curt Trailer Hitch for the 2010 Dodge Journey T Best customer service by far oreder my hitch this morning and it has already shipped out.

Titus was A-1 great customer service will post pic soon as hitch is on.



by:

product went on just like they showed in the video but the one thingI think should be added is how hard it actully is to get the exhaust is to get off without the specialty tool that they mention, but it did come off and the hitch went on witout a hitch.



by:

The hitch installed perfect, very easy and looks good. Customer Service was GREAT with notifications on receiveing the order and tracking information, very refreshing to see, kudos. On the wiring part the right turn signal wire was about 2 feet short and was also described this way in the installation video. This was the only frustrating part for me I do have a stock of wire but of course did not have any the right guage or length so I had to run to the store with another car to get some. It would be a lot better for all if the manufacturer would make the green wire a little longer.



by:

Great Product/Great Price!I am VERY happy with the service I received from etrailer.com. Not only was the price great, but they upgraded my shipping for FREE! They kept in constant contact and I received the hitch much sooner than expected!! I would DEFINITELY recommend etrailer.com to anyone! The installation videos were awesome and shaved hours off the installation! We were hauling our first load to to the dump within an hour of the delivery truck's arrival! So thanks, etrailer.com, for providing the excellent customer service you promised!! :D I couldn't be happier with our choice to use you guys!!

2010 Dodge Journey

I ordered the Curt Trailer Hitch and wiring harness for my 2010 Dodge Journey RT from etrailer. My order was processed quickly and I received my hitch and harness in record time! Between the video instructions on the website and the advice from etrailer, the installation was a breeze. Both products are of excellent quality.

I can't say enough good things about your product. I viewed the video on your page showing the install and to be honest with you I thought " YEA RIGHT, It can't be that easy " I was wrong! This hitch was a pleasure to install and looks great on my Dodge.
I will be pleased to tell people where I bought this hitch and plan on buying other things from you. IE, a bike rack and a tool box.
THANK YOU

I found your company searching online and was immediately impressed by the video demonstration on my car model. After reading the many positivie reviews I decided to order the hitch. It arrived within 2 days of ordering. After watching the video and reading the instructions I began the install. Keep in mind I am a novice and did not have a lift but like the instructions said it should take about 90 minutes and it did! It looks great, was easy to install and your service was fantastic. The bike rack I ordered along with it was another great product. Thank you for delivering excellent service and providing us less experienced folks with the confidence to complete the work.

I purchased this same item for my car and was so pleased with it that i had to repurchase one for the wife car it was very easy to install and truly l@@ks factory installed. I rate this product and company as Excellent.
Plus on my second order of this unit i received it in only two days. Thank you Etrailer.

Dodge Journey

The trailer was really easy to install and looks great on my journey. I was able to watch the online installation video that was provided by etrailer.com and it took me less than 2 hours to install. Also the customer service was outstanding. I was constantly updated on my purchase and was even upgraded on my shipping. The hitch was received 3 business days later. Thank you for all of your help.

As advertised. My mechanic had it mounted quickly and w/o issue. Not for towing in my case (as my car can't pull a horse), but for a bike rack and cargo platform. Always have good transactions with etrailer.

2016 Dodge Journey

Dodge Journey SXT Curt 13201 hitch.

Regular shipping, received within a week. Followed video instructions and it took me about 2 ½ hours. I don’t have a hoist so I lifted it up on about 16 inch jack stands. I don’t know how the video makes it look like there is so much room to remove the muffler hangers, but I had a time getting my hands into the space. I had to pry off 3 of the hangers and fight to get the last off by hand. I had saturated them with soapy water. Bolting on the hitch was easy with the help of my wife holding one end up and my daughter starting the nuts. It looked like the spare tire would be locked in, so I dropped the spare and raised it up again to make sure it would work. It fits fine, but you need to guide the tire to get it to slide in above the hitch and into place. Using the soapy water we were able to force the muffler hangers into place, but had to use blocks and a pry to lift and hold the mufflers enough to attach the hangers. Would I do it again? I’m 66 years old and have some sore spots from rolling on the cement floor and a few banged up knuckles. Of course I would do it again. Less than 200 bucks for hitch and wiring for lights beats the $600 the hitch shop wanted to install it. I still need to do the lights, but am totally satisfied with my purchase.

This is the third trailer hitch that I've purchased from etrailer.com (1998 GMC Jimmy, 2006 Dodge Grand Caravan w/extended wheel base, and now for my 2014 Dodge Journey). It went on with no problems. I love the step by step videos of the installations. They are so helpful. I always go to etrailer.com to buy my tow hitch and I usually get free shipping and excellent customer service. Thank you to the people that work for etrailer!



by:

After a year I have had no problems what so ever with this hitch. Awesome product that I would definitely recommend to anyone in the market for hitches. Quality is great, no rust or chipping paint. I use it all the time, pulling a utility trailer and it has been great. Matched with a receiver cover and the curt wire harness and mount it is the perfect combination for a sleek look when not pulling a trailer as well.

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring Recommendation for 2017 Dodge Journey
    For your 2017 Dodge Journey we can certainly help you pick out the correct hitch and wiring. For a hitch you'd want to start with the Curt hitch part # C13201 which is a confirmed fit and will work well.

  • Determine if 2014 Dodge Journey has LED or Incandescent Taillights for Trailer Hitch and Wiring
    Easiest way to tell is to watch the lights illuminate. If they come on immediately with basically zero transition between off and on and are almost painful to look at you have LEDs. If you can watch the bulb get brighter and looking at the light doesn't hurt your eyes you would have incandescents. Also if the bulb is round and has that old school style of wiring in it where there is two vertical wires and a couple horizontal wires that run between them that is incandescent. For a hitch...

    I looked up the towing capacity of your 2012 Dodge Journey 4 cylinder and it has a 1,000 lb towing capacity. If your trailer weighs less than 1,000 lbs you could install a hitch like the etrailer.com hitch part # e98845 to tow it. For trailer wiring you'd then want the part # 118536 which is a confirmed fit. If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900.

This is a Class III hitch with a 2 inch opening that would have more than enough capacity for your trailer. Now for wiring you will want to start with a 4-way, for that you would need the Trailer Wiring Kit from Curt part # C56109. This will give you a 4-way.

  • Recommended Weight Distribution Hitch to Pull Jayco Jay Feather
    Thanks for the info on what trailer you are getting and there is a great option for a weight distribution system to use with your 2009 Dodge Journey and 2015 Jayco Jay Feather x17z. I highly recommend the the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution # FA92-00-0600 because it will keep you level and control trailer sway with its spring bars, uses clamp-on brackets so no drilling is required for installation, and allows backing up with the system in place, which is not possible with all weight distribution...

  • Bike Rack Recommendations To Allow Rear Cargo Access on 2015 Dodge Journey
    It's not recommended to open and close the rear hatch with a hatch mounted bike rack in place. The gas struts that hold up the rear hatch are rated for the weight of the hatch, and not much more. Having extra weight on the hatch could cause the hatch to close unexpectedly, catching you by surprise (not to mention the head and shoulders.) Closing the rear hatch with the rack in place could also damage the rear door from the extra shock of the rack being in place. I have an alternative...

Basically you will first measure the height from the ground to the top of the receiver opening on the hitch while on level ground. Next, you will measure the coupler height from the ground to the bottom of the trailer coupler when the trailer is on level ground. Next, you will need to compute the difference.

  • Issues with Exhaust Making Contact with Hitch on a 2020 Dodge Journey
    I'm sorry to hear you are having this experience with this hitch # C13201. You can make a few minor adjustments exhaust hangers to allow more space between the exhaust and the hitch. You can do this by rotating the hanger or sliding the hanger on the pins so that it is further away from the hitch. We have not had many issues with this hitch making contact with other components on the 2020 Dodge Journey.
