This fully welded trailer hitch receiver bolts onto your vehicle's frame with no welding required. Powder coated steel is sturdy and corrosion resistant.Ordering from etrailer was easy. Got my product fast and the one of the coolest things was you’re able to see the shipment in motion from order,p picking, packing, and shipping and you’re able to see who’s working on your order. Not even the big boys do that. Product arrived very fast and was packaged tight and in very good condition. I ripped into it right away and being this was my first time ever installing a hitch I took my time to make sure I did everything according to the instructions (about 2hrs mainly because I had to remove cover panels and lower the exhaust). Everything installed as advertised and fit my vehicle exactly. I’m pretty excited to attach my new travel rack and test it out. etrailer made it easy and I’d definitely purchase from them again.
Solid trailer hitch receiver! Smooth & sleek finish. Simple to install. Took me about 30 minutes to install, one person job. There was no need to lift up or jack up my Sorento. Also like that the receiver hides under the bumper (I bought the anti rattle hitch lock separate also on etrailer).
The installation of the hitch and wiring harness was straightforward and without complication. Be sure to watch a video illustrating solutions to the auto manufacturer’s bumper mounting tabs. I ground mine off, but bending works as well. The first use was satisfactory and without incident. This product met all of my expectations.
David - 08/07/2021Easy to follow instructions and the video was extra helpful. The etrailer team answered all my questions, and helped me get the parts I needed for the install. I ended up ordering the hitch due to a steel shortage at UHaul and they had me waiting over a month for a installation date. I had my etrailer hitch in 3 days after ordering, and installed that weekend. I was moving to Florida and needed to get it installed and inspected in order to pick up a 5x8 trailer. Everything ended up working out great and all is well down here in the sunshine state. I would definitely recommend ordering parts from these guys and if you can install yourself by watching the videos and following/reading the directions, they make it super simple and you'll end up saving yourself some money for other things like a victory drink when your done!
Fit perfectly. Found a great YouTube video to help me install it in a couple of hours.
Perfect fit and extremely easy installation on my wife's 2013 SantaFe Sport. Only took me about 30 minutes, after watching the etrailer installation video. Best of all, the hitch didn't cost me $697.00 as it is listed on the Hyundai accessories website - that's absolutely crazy!! I would recommend you check to see if you have the factory tow connection already on the vehicle before ordering the wiring kit. All I needed was the C56151 kit, which plugs directly into the factory plug just behind the driver side rear tire. I ordered everything before checking and selected "without factory tow package", since there wasn't a tow hitch already installed on the vehicle. The wiring kit recommended was C56184, which will work, but is a more complicated installation. It would be great if there was a prompt telling you to check for the factory plug, prior to ordering the wiring kit. My wife is now very happy that she can tow our small utility trailer anywhere she wants. THANKS etrailer.com!

Have had this hitch on our Sante Fe Sport for over a year now and we are very pleased with its performance, quality, and the finish holding up as well. Installation last year went very well. Instructionsl videos provided online were thorough and well communicated. Was able to install with rather basic tools, but I wouldn’t recommend anyone who’s afraid of mechanics to tackle it. It’s also heavy, and installation will require some strength and a disc grinder to remove pins from your vehicle. Trailer light connection install did require the wiring kit/electronics package, and since it has to be installed under body panels I would say again; if you’re shy about pulling your rig apart a bit get help. Overall everything did exactly what it said it would, and everything functions perfectly. A very pleased customer!
Easy installation, no complaints at all. I’ve installed several hitches over the years and this was one of the easiest on my wife’s 2018 Santa Fe Sport Ultimate 2.0T with Tow Prep package. We’ll mostly use it for a bike carrier, but the Tekonsha custom fit wiring installed quickly and easily as well for the rare occasion we’ll use it for a small trailer, so I’d recommend doing that at the same time. One last piece, the “4-Flat Universal Mounting Bracket” from etrailer ties it all together, keeps the wiring nice and tidy, and makes it look like a factory installation. I’d highly recommend this setup, especially since the factory hitch is outrageously overpriced.
This was absolutely an amazing purchase just I told a 6 by 12 trailer loaded with quads and dirt bikes from Phoenix Arizona all the way to Syracuse New York with no problems. I would definitely recommend this to anybody needing this style hitch.
I’ve purchased several things from etrailer and my experience has been consistently excellent! Great products, great prices, helpful videos and information, AND great communication! Every step of the way etrailer let’s you know the status of your order. This review was posted thanks to a follow up email confirming the delivery of my new trailer hitch. They’re one of the best online retailers out there. Thanks again etrailer, I’m a well satisfied customer!
I chose the Curt because I've had past experiences with their products. etrailer makes choosing easy with their videos. The installation was quite simple once the car was on the hoist. I use it for both towing and for a bike rack. I've had no issues with it and like the way it fits under my sorento with no shin banging. lol
Gary M - 03/27/2021I went a little overkill with this class III hitch, however, fit was perfect. Difficulty of installation was more of a 6 out of 10 for a plus sixty year old crawling on my back under the car, but all in all, it went well. Achieving torque of 110 ft lbs for the cross bolts required extra effort, but I knew it needed to be accomplished. I took my time. Cleaned all the parts a removed and replaced. And made sure all items were secure. The wire harness I purchased was almost too easy to install. To plugs and done. Added the fuse, tested it with the tester I bought, and all worked fine.
Great video to prep me for doing the job, I used an axle Jack to support the muffler once the hangers were off. Needed some help when holding the hitch up to the frame, after that it was very easy.
Ron R - 09/21/2016I bought this since my Santa Fe was towing ready from factory except they don't give you the receiver or the 4 pin light output. The installation was very easy and only took about an hour. The hardest part was trimming the wheel well covers to fit properly since the receiver bolts are in the way. Overall I would say that this is a excellent receiver that is just as good if not better than the factory and it was about half the cost.
AJ - 08/31/2020The product was great, it was exactly what I needed. The web site was easy to navigate and items were readily available. May order arrived earlier than expected and was easy to install. The hitch came with complete installation instructions and parts. I am very satisfied and will recommend to others.
David - 04/05/2021This is the perfect rack if you think you might use your hitch for anything down the road - trust me, you will upgrade. Installation was straightforward. A word of caution. If you live where roadsalt is used, pick up an M10x1.25 tap and chase the weldnut threads in the frame. Mine were impossible to get the bolt into. Five minutes with a tap and I could thread them in by hand. I bought this hitch to carry a bike rack (for now - see upgrades!) and just a word of advice. The Thule T2 Classic is a great two bike tray. According to the Thule information, it will not fold up vertically on our 2015 Santa Fe Sport. It will work just fine. In my pics you can see the wheel tray comes close when the rack is centered. It's close but there's not enough play to hit the bumper. Both are great products - buy them from eTrailer!
Very easy to install per the video. Clean installation, and the shipping was awesome, thanks.
John - 08/15/2021Could't be happier! I was given a quote of over $600 from my dealership to add a hitch to my 2015 Hyundai Santa Fe. I was able to put in my car information on etrailer.com, order the hitch and have a local mechanic install it on my car all for under $250! It was easy to buy, shipped very quickly and I was able to track it's arrival too. Thanks for making this process so easy!!
I purchased the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver on Sunday 3/23 and had it at my front door a few days later. The hitch was installed on a 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport 2.4 by my local Hyundai dealer in less than an hour. I also purchased the Curt Hitch Extender for 2" Hitch Receivers - 8" Long - C45791 as the hitch will be used for our Thule bike rack. This allows for ample clearance from the back of the vehicle. As far as eTrailer.com and their customer support staff...they were excellent to do business with. Very helpful and knowledge. It was welcoming to get personal responses instead of auto-emails. Great user-friendly website too!
Charlene R - 04/03/2015Extra heavy duty. Very well built and solid as a rock. Fit perfectly and solidly. Very highly recommended. Install was quick and easy.
Jimmie L - 07/23/2021Great hitch, easy install and holding up well. Fast shipping and customer service. Would definitely buy from etrailer again in the future.
Arrived quickly, so that's a plus. The way this slides into place on the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe there is an alignment pin where the bumper is slid forward during the car assembly that is close to where the bolts are. I was impressed by the precise construction of the hitch that it slide up into place without interfering with alignment pins. I did have to bend the driver's side pin just a touch (as instructed by the instructions) to get a proper socket on one of the large nuts to apply the correct torque. I'm talking 3 millimeters or something. Not a worry at all, all stock use of the pin is completely retained. Heavy duty powdercoating. Not that you'll get much chance to appreciate it, since once it's installed, the hitch is super stealthy. The picture attached is taken just a couple feet off the ground. I installed it in my driveway without a lift, just a couple of drive up ramps. I don't LOVE rolling around on concrete, but meh, it's totally doable. The time estimates given, I'm guessing, are for using a lift. From start to finish, including being called in for dinner, and picking up all my tools afterward, it took me a couple hours.
Anders G - 05/16/2014Works like a charm..!! Easy to install..!! Hyundai Santa Fe Sport 2017
Very well made and extremely solid. I have not mounted the tow hitch yet, but all the parts arrived in good shape and on time. I plan on using a motorcycle carrier on the hitch. With a 900 pound tongue weight I will have confidence during travel.
Fits perfectly on 2018 Santa Fe Sport. Watch the video for detailed instructions on a 2017 Santa Fe Sport (exactly the same). Took me about 90 minutes start to absolute finish with only jack stands. If you don't have a torque wrench, be aware the torque specs are pretty high - be sure to use a long ratchet or breaker bar and tighten like crazy. Works great with C58000 adapter and 37185 4/7 pole connector (see pictures).
