This was cheaper and looks more solid than factory. Will know when I put some work on it. For now it's holding my bike rack up well.

It's heavy and paint seems heavy duty. Instructions also were clear. Sits in the same location as factory but without the trim it looks like it's lower.

Everything looks great, Jonathan! Thanks for the pics especially getting that view of the backside. That must have been tricky to get but you got it!

Hitch receiver fits my 2025 Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid very well. Installation would have been much faster with the help of a 2nd person to help lift & position the hitch receiver. However, I was able to get it done with the help of jack stands.

As a side note, I have a full-size spare and was worried that the hitch receiver would not fit. The spare still fits, though there is a slight rub of the tire on the hitch receiver.

The install was easy enough on our 2021 Kia Sorento…rolling around my garage floor. Installed the hitch and harness in right around 2 hours all by myself. My pup loves it too. No more sharing space in the back with the bags.

Even though it was a little short from flange to flange the torquing process snugged it up perfectly. Thanks etrailer.

This Curt hitch is a high quality piece that installed in less than an hour start to finish. The instructions are easy to follow, the bolts and washers are included, and the fit is well integrated with our 23 Hyundai hybrid. Put it to the test the very next day towing a 10 foot enclosed trailer.

No complaints at all with the product. Customer rep Natalie was a great assist with my online order. The DIY installation, by myself, on a 2022 Kia Sorento took much longer than expected, especially while having to lay on my back underneath the car for the install. I did watch the associated on-line video regarding the hitch install, where the car was up on a hydraulic car lift during the install. Two recommendations, suggest to DIYers to wirebrush/clean out the 6 "holes" that the mounting bolt seats into...and...invest in an exhaust rubber hanger removal tool ($15).

Happy so far. Main reason for purchase was use of a hitch mounted bike rack and occasional small trailer use. Happy so far. Purchase process was simple, and shipping was very fast.

2022 Hyundai Santa Fe

Hitch received when promised. Installation was not difficult but if you are doing it alone in your driveway, you need to be resourceful. The hitch is heavy, you need to move the spare tire and the exhaust.



by:
hyundai Santa Fe

The hitch is built very solid. Installation was pretty simple and all of the holes in the hitch lined up perfectly with the frame for my 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe. When I installed it, I didn't have to remove the side panel as instructed in the e-trailer video by maybe that only applies to the Calligraphy model I have. Also, I removed the exhaust completely (two extra bolts) rather than just lowering the exhaust.



by:

2021 Kia Sorento. Easy installation. There was a large gap in the vertical mating surfaces to the frame. 5/16” plus. I noticed others had commented about this in the Q/A. The gap closed and pulled up snug to the frame easily by just tightening the upper bolts first. No need to try and bend or modify anything. This information should be included with the installation instructions so people are not concerned about it.

I hear your concerns Jerame, and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback! This is helpful insight.



by:

The hitch was easy to install on my 2025 Santa Fe Hybrid. I was able to install it by myself using a small scissor jack to hold up the exhaust system while i disconnected the rubber holding rings. I used a 19 mm socket with a six inch extension. Then torqued the bolts to 60 lbs. all the holes lined up perfectly, and the suggestion to pre install the bolts then remove before moving the hitch in place helped loosen some excess paint and made everything go very smooth..

Great product and very easy to install

I'm not a mechanic or very mechanically inclined. Very easy install and was done in less than an hour by myself. Ramps under rear wheels, an angled driveway, a folding chair and a 90 degree attachment for my impact gun made this work. Already used the hitch for a bike rack and will be taking two road trips in the next 2 weeks and looking forward to using the hitch for the cargo basket we purchased as well. Thanks to Amy and the ETrailer team for follow up!

I bought two in 2022 and had great luck with them. I just bought two more for Hyundai Santa Fe hybrids. They fit perfectly and look great! The install videos are perfect for a first time buyer and are what convinced me to buy the first two. Don't be afraid to buy from etrailer!

Solid and heavy duty. Easy to install. Good directions. Took me about 30 minutes on my wife’s 25’ Santa Fe.



by:

The fit was not as I had hoped for. The hitch was approximately 1/2" narrower than the frame rails it was supposed to mount to and not square to the frame. I had to shim each side 1/4" and then it narrowed to 3/16" at the other set of mounting holes. I was able to make it work but it took some adjusting and some various shim sizes. Holes were a good match so that helped

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch And Wiring For A 2025 Kia Sorento PHEV
    Hi Jerry, For your 2025 Kia Sorento PHEV you would need the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C37RV for the trailer hitch. The right light kit for your Sorento is going to depend on a few factors. For models with the tow package, like you stated you have, you can install a 7-way connector like the Tekonsha # TK24FR. Regardless of the tow package you can install a 4-pole connector like the Tekonsha # 118269 (incandescent tail lights) or Curt # C99DR (LED tail lights). The 7-way is really...

    Hey Ivan! The Curt # C37RV and TowSmart # TS44ZR probably do sit a little lower than the factory hitch, but it doesn't look like it is a significant amount. The bumper is slightly different with a cutout for the hitch if you have the factory hitch.

  • How to Remove Stuck Hitch Bolt W/ Headless Bolt
    That's no bueno Al, but I feel like we've all been there. What you can do if you have some tools laying around is, drill out the bolt with a smaller left handed bit and then put an extracting bit into the hole you just drilled and rotate it counter-clockwise until it unscrews. If that doesn't work, then you could drill out the hole entirely and re-bore it with new threads.

    Hi Chris, Yes, you'll need the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C37RV. This class III trailer hitch has a 4,000lb maximum towing capacity and 600lb tongue weight capacity, but you'll still want to refer to your Santa Fe's owner manual to verify its capacities. If you're planning on towing a trailer or adding lights to a hitch mounted accessory then I recommend also picking up the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # CU94FR to transfer your light signals back.
