Great hitch, no issues with it at all. Use a floor jack to make the installation easier.

The Curt hitch was delivered on time and well packaged in great condition. A quality product from a quality outfit like etrailer. I will continue to do business with them and as stated before, great product, great service.

Perfect fit and easy ti install AFTER you remove spare tire and loosen muffer
Unfortunately the first hitch delivered was not right for the truck and i had to return it. Too bad the computer?? Sent me the wrong part. There should be only one listing for the vehicle it goes on

One year later and everything is working perfectly!!

Easy installl. Only problem was factory bolt holes had a lot of paint in them making hard to get bolts started. This is 3rd or 4th hitch I have bought from etrailer and I always receive within 2 days. Fast and friendly service. Bud answered all of my questions

Thank you

The hitch was easy to install and the instructions were perfect no problems at all only took about 1 hour and saved me about $600, thank you so much.

Great quality, perfect fit, easy to install. Parts and labor through Hyundai dealership was over $[XX]! This install also only took 45 minutes. Dealership was going to charge 3 1/2 hours labor at $[XX] an hour. I am very pleased with my purchase.

@Phyllis We're happy to hear that the # C23WR hitch is working well for you!

This is an excellent product. At first I did not think it would fit. Once it was put in place and the bolts were tightened down it went right into place. I have it on a new 2023 Santa Cruze. I am able to pull my 2024 Mako 15.5 foot boat loaded with no problems. I can't say enough good things about it. GREAT!

2024 Hyundai Santa Cruz

The shipping was somewhat vague. on what was coming and what was just forwarded and shipping at a different date. I received the hitch, connector, and floor mats but the tonneau cover was not coming until the 26th of March. Nothing real showed that in the shipping info I was receiving. Other than that everything showed up from ETrailer quickly and in good shape. Still waiting on the tonneau cover. After a quick phone call got the shipping date on the tonneau cover and good with it.

Absolute perfect fit on my Hyundai Santa Cruz. Definitely needed a second set of hands to set the first two bolts but after that it was a quick job. Just feels really solid and high quality, including the bolts and washers. Zero complaints - easy transaction and quick delivery.



by:

Hitch receiver was a simple bolt in install. Looks and fit perfectly to my santa cruz. Easy to install and saved me a lot of money compared to a factory installed unit.



by:

Bolted right up to the Santa Cruz. Wiring harness was plug and play.



by:

The hitch works. I gave it a three star because it came with the box damage and the hitch bent. I inquire to etrailer about it, and was told that I should be able to straighten it. I did but, I am not able to secure one bolt. As it does not align properly.

I am using the hitch but because the The hitch came bent, I was not able to straiten it to its original form so, I could not install one bult. So, I use it with limited weight less then 1000 lbs.

Fit perfectly on my Hyundai Santa Cruz!.. Installation was relatively simple. I have towed with this many times and it has worked great!!

I have towed regularly 4000-5000 lbs with my 2022 Santa Cruz with this hitch…absolutely no problems. It’s as if it was OEM. Thanks Curt!!



by:

Fantastic product fantastic service, my order actually delivered three days early. Very impressive. It arrived in perfect condition. With additional parts for installation that I did not expect. Made the installation simple.
Thank you again



by:

It went ok. A little difficult trying to tighten bolts on passenger side. Took me about 2 hours doing it myself.

Harness was quick and easy.



by:
2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz

Packaging of hitch is minimal and even the second shipment experienced some holes in the box. Customer service was outstanding, fast and helpful. Both the hitch and the harness fitted well. I would recommend viewing the instillation on Youtube. I installed the hitch by myself using the muffler to hold one end up while threading the bolts on the opposite side. Then removed two of the three exhaust hanging grommets on the exhaust to then thread & tighten the three bolts on the passenger/exhaust side. I did not disconnect the battery when installing the harness and experienced no issues. Thanks to Etrailer.



by:

Was at my door in less than 48 hours. Fit was good and installation was easy. Smooth transaction..5 stars

Installation was simple and quick. would recommend



by:

Need to pack the product better. Various parts of the hitch were sticking out of the box. Hopefully nothing is bent.



by:
2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz

Quality of product appears excellent. Install was fairly straightforward. Recommend initially using exhaust to rest passenger side of receiver for fastener starting, before lowing exhaust to make room for torquing. Recommend a hitch riser to increase resultant height of tow ball.



by:

Like all Kurt products it installed with excellent instructions and a minimum amount of hassle. It took some physical effort but there were no surprises. I just actually used it for the first time this last week. Trailered a 900 lb. motorcycle 400 miles and back with no issues. Great values for the money.



by:
2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz

The hitch arrived in a cardboard box and looked great. When I tried to install the hitch, I found that the mounting plate on the driver's side of the hitch was bent , likely from having been dropped on that end of the box. When the hitch was mounted to the passenger side of the vehicle the mounting plate on the driver side was about 1 1/2 inches from the mounting holes in the chassis. I used a chain fall and a couple of trees to pull the driver side plate back into position so that I could then mount the hitch to the vehicle. Had it not been for the need to straighten the mounting plate, the installation would have taken about an hour. I also should mention that I am 70+ years old and I managed the installation alone so it was not a difficult task. I gave it 4 stars because of the bent mount, otherwise it was a 5 star.

This hitch is made of mild steel which causes it to flex over pot holes and rough terrain, but also can happen during shipping which causes it to bend. Here are tips to fix the issue in this help article:

  • Best Hitch Curt or Draw-Tite for a 2023 Hyundai Santa Cruz
    The Curt Trailer Hitch item # C23WR and the Draw-Tite Hitch item # DT48GR are almost identical and are both confirmed to fit the 2023 Hyundai Santa Cruz. The main differences between the two hitches are that the Curt is made in the USA and the Draw-Tite has a built in tab to mount a 4-way or 7-way wiring bracket. Both hitches are a class III, with a 2" receiver, that weigh right at 40 lbs. They have a 5,000 lbs towing capacity, and a 750 lbs maximum tongue weight. Neither one of them...

    To add a hitch to your 2023 Hyundai Santa Cruz, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C23WR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Hyundai with included hardware. I really like this hitch because the main crosstube mounts behind your rear bumper leaving only the 2" receiver exposed.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver, Wiring, and Brake Controller for 2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz
    It sounds like you would like to add a trailer brake controller to your 2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz to use along with the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C23WR. The first thing you will want to add, in addition to the trailer hitch, is wiring. You are going to need a 4-way in order to power your trailer's signal lights. If you have the factory tow package and tow package you need the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # CU94FR. This wiring harness will plug into the connection point in...

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver and Wiring Harness For a 2024 Hyundai Santa Cruz
    So first of you are going to need the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C23WR which I see you already found. And I do understand your confusion with wiring since you would think since it did not come with the receiver you would not have the factory tow package. Both the Tekonsha 7-Way # TK44ZR(without tow package) and Curt 7-Way # C68JR(with tow package) are going to have the exact same connector that connects them to the vehicle. So that leads me to believe the only real difference for the...

  • Parts Needed To Install a 7-Way and Trailer Brake Controller On a 2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz
    To install a 7-way on your 2023 Hyundai Santa Cruz you will need the Tekonsha OEM Replacement Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK44ZR. This will give you the wiring needed to install a 7-way along with the wiring for a brake controller. You will be able to plug and play the Redarc Liberty Controller # RED24FR using the Adapter # 331-TPH-017. The Redarc is a great controller as it only uses a small dash mounted control knob. You can attach the 7-way to the Curt Receiver # C23WR using the Mounting...

  • Is Curt or Draw-Tite Hitch For 2023 Hyundai Santa Cruz Least Visible
    Hey Gene, first of all, thanks very much for the kind words it is absolutely appreciated. And between the two hitches for your 2023 Hyundai Santa Cruz, the one that is least visible is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C23WR. When we test fit these, we found the # C23WR is tucked up about an inch more than the Draw-Tite # DT48GR. I have added a photo showing the Curt hitch on a Santa Cruz, and as you can see most of the tube is hidden behind the step portion of the bumper. Some of it...

  • Will The Curt 7-Way Vehicle Wiring Harness Fit 2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz Without Factory 7-Way?
    You will need to check for the factory trailer wiring connector on your 2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz to determine if you will be able to use the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C68JR. Just because your Santa Cruz did not come from the factory with a receiver and wiring does not mean the factory wiring is not there. I have linked an installation video for the 4-Way # CU94FR below as it also ties into the factory connector. If you do not have the factory connector then you will be...

Then for trailer wiring we only have hardwire options at this time like the Curt # C59236 which will require splicing into the vehicle wiring.
