I am an accountant by trade so I enlisted a friend to help me with the trimming of the lower bumper panel. It took us longer than the video to install but overall I am very happy with the hitch receiver. The packaging on delivery was damaged and open but there was no damage (all bolts & washers accounted). This is not my first hitch receiver. I rated this based on price, quick delivery and the quality.

The receiver has a great addition to the Pathfinder. We mainly use it with our cargo carrier but potentially we may add a small trailer or bike rack into our inventory.

@Kenneth glad to hear it is a great addition! We carry bike racks too so if you need help picking one out let us know.

Very easy to install. It is heavy so I recommend 2 people. My brother and I had it installed in less than 30 minutes including removing a small portion of the underside of bumper with a dremel.
One bit of warning since it is lower than where the factory hitch would be I do scrap the hitch from time to time when on a steep incline or decline, like a steep driveway or a parking garage. The scrap is jarring to hear inside the car but the hitch is fine and keeps going. I recommend pulling into steep driveways at an angle, haven’t scraped since.

Keeping the hitch at an angle does the job, however I recommend considering part # RM-050 which is the Rollaway hitch protector from Roadmaster. It can help with vehicles where the hitch is lower to the ground.

Took about two hrs to finally get the last bolt to work, but otherwise i like the hitch. First 5 bolts took half hour.

Great product, we have been relying on this hitch for over a year now and no complaints

You need to supply a small paper template for the cut out of the rear plastic piece and also the last two holes in the mount need to have more of a slot in them to allow for more of an easy install so that you dont have to drill some space in the slots. We all don't have car lifts .

Holes in hitch did not match up perfectly with holes in the vehicle.

It sounds like you got a flexed hitch. It's pretty common for the steel of the hitch to become flexed in shipping. The good news is, its fixable. Check out this help article.

  • Recommended Transmission Cooler for a 2023 Nissan Pathfinder
    The transmission cooler options we offer are all universal so they will work on your 2023 Nissan Pathfinder. I recommend the Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit part # D13504 which is a complete kit that has everything you need. It will do a great job of helping to keep transmission fluid temps down when towing to prolong the life of your transmission. In order to tow a trailer you'll also need a trailer hitch and for that I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part...

  • Will a Hitch Block the Liftgate Sensors on a 2025 Infiniti QX60?
    Hey Barry congrats on the new SUV! The hitches for the 2025 Infiniti QX60 like item # C46DR are going to block the range of the sensors around the center of your bumper where the 2" receiver sits. You'll need to kick to the left and right to find an area that isn't affected. If you install the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver item # EH35SR you can minimize this issue. This hitch has a removable receiver that can be taken off when you're not using it by loosening a bolt. The crosstube...

  • Ground Clearance to Bottom of Curt Hitch Receiver on a 2022 Nissan Pathfinder
    Hey Kerry, When we installed the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C46DR on a 2022 Nissan Pathfinder we found that it measured 13" from the ground to the top inside of the receiver (see attached photo). This means the bottom of the receiver will be about 10-3/4" above the ground when we account for the 2" receiver and the 1/4" of metal. If that sits too low for your liking, then you might consider going with the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH53SR instead. I know this hitch has...

  • Fascia Trimming Needed to Install Curt Trailer Hitch on 2023 Nissan Pathfinder
    Correct, the fascia trimming is under the bumper on your 2023 Nissan Pathfinder so it won't be noticeable at all for the installation of the Curt hitch that fits your vehicle. The correct part number for that hitch is the following: - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C46DR I have added a cut out showing the exact trimming needed on your '23 Pathfinder when installing the # C46DR, and as you can see it's a small 4-1/4" x 2-1/2" section, which you can easily trim with a utility knife.

  • Solution for Preventing 2023 Nissan Pathfinder from Sagging Rear Suspension When Towing
    Hey Joseph, so the Curt hitch part # C46DR is for sure a fit for your 2023 Nissan Pathfinder and you did get the correct hitch. What is most likely happening is that your trailer's tongue weight is causing the rear suspension to sag which is causing the dragging. If that is the case a set of air bags like part # AL63WQ which fits your vehicle would be what you'd want.
