Easy to install, worked great. I had one issue where I was missing a bolt and a couple nuts (lost in shipping I think, there was a hole in the box) and they replaced them quickly with no questions. One year later, still works great.



by:

It was just what I needed very easy ins tallation

Having ordered several hitches in the past from etrailer, I usually opt for the Curt or the Draw-Tite. In this case, since the etrailer brand was priced a bit less, and the design was what I was looking for, I went for it. I am Very Pleased with my new hitch! The welds are good, the paint is smooth, and the heft of this hitch is impressive. Glad I went for it. I also like the amount of protrusion from my Sorento at the back, and the height is just right for my camper tongue. Thanks etrailer! One thing though...it wouldn't hurt to wrap them up a bit before dropping them in the box to ship. It would protect them more.

I buy all of my trailer and towing needs from etrailer. Fast and accurate service and competitive prices. They have never failed to complete my purchases. A Big Thank You to all of the folks at etrailer!

  • How to Determine if a 2013 Kia Sorento has a Factory Towing Prep Package
    The most definitive way to determine if your 2013 Kia Sorento has the factory towing prep package is to have the dealer run the VIN number. They will be able to you how it is equipped. The trailer wiring for vehicles with the tow prep package, # C56332, is located behind the driver side rear wheel along the frame rail. I have linked instructions for you. If you have a 4-cylinder model or a model without the tow prep package, use # 118506. For a trailer hitch, the most popular option is...

  • Will Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver C13073 Fit 2012 Kia Sorento EX With 4 Cylinder Engine
    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13073 you were looking at is confirmed to fit all models of the 2012 Kia Sorento, and will fit perfectly on your 2012 Kia Sorento EX 4 cylinder. This is a great choice as it gives you a 2" trailer hitch receiver which is the go to choice due to the wide variety of accessories compatible with that size receiver. If you are looking to do some light towing you will also need a trailer wiring harness # 118506, and a hitch ball, ball mount, and hitch pin and...

  • Curt Class III Trailer Hitch Dimensions for a 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe
    The overall dimensions of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13073 for your 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe are 54" wide x 11" tall (drop) x 15-3/4" deep. Attached is a photo showing this. Since this is a custom fit application for your vehicle it will match up with the mounting holes in the frame of your vehicle. It hugs the bumper on a Santa Fe really well and when we installed this on a 2012 model we found the hitch height to be 15" - this is measured from the ground to the top inside of the...

  • Installing Curt Class III Trailer Hitch on 2013 Kia Sorento SX with Factory Tow Prep Package
    The Curt Class III Trailer Hitch # C13073 that you reference will require the heat shield to be trimmed. As you noted, there may be holes in the heat shield to access the existing holes in the frame, but the heat shield needs to be trimmed so that the trailer hitch can sit directly against the vehicle frame rail. Curt directs to trim the heat shield in step 2 of the hitch installation instructions, and I cannot recommend that you deviate from these installation instructions. I have attached...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch and Wiring for 2011 Hyundai Santa Fe with Spare Tire Under Vehicle
    Both the Curt Class III Round Tube Receiver Hitch # C13073 and Draw-Tite Class III Max Frame Receiver Hitch # 75684 are confirmed to fit your 2011 Hyundai Santa Fe as long as it does not have the dual exhaust. Because of its cross tube design, the Curt Class III # C13073 is going to allow for easier access to the spare tire mounted under the vehicle. I have attached a couple of images so you can better see the comparison between the two hitches. The Curt Hitch is a great option for your...

  • Curt Hitch C13073 versus Draw-Tite 75684 for 2011 Hyundai Santa Fe
    Curt offers a round tube Class III receiver, part # C13073, but to satisfy their warranty requirements, a stabilizer strap # 18050 needs to be used for non-trailer loads like a bike rack or cargo carrier. If you intend on only using the receiver for towing, the Curt would be a good choice. The Draw-Tite # 75684 is constructed of square-tube steel. Because of the spoiler on top of the hatch, the stabilizer strap will not work well on the Santa Fe, so for a bike rack or cargo carrier, the...

  • What Size Tap Is Needed To Chase Threads 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe When Installing Curt Trailer Hitch?
    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13073 uses M10 - 1.25 bolts to mount in the factory weld-nuts on the frame of your 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe. Our Metric Tap and Die Set # PT43FR will have this size tap included so you can chase your weld nuts. Do be sure to use some oil on the tap to help it clear the threads.

    According to Curt, Trailer Hitch, # C13073, will fit all models of the 2011 Kia Sorento. This would include the SX. I have included a link to the installation details for you to view. According to Draw-Tite, the SX model has a 3 wire system and requires a converter so # C59496 would be the correct wiring harness. I have included a link to the installation details for you to view. The recommended ball mount is # AMSC2 and you can use pin and clip # PC3. For a ball, you can use # 19260...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring Harness Installation on a 2012 Kia Sorento SX
    The installation for the Curt Trailer Hitch, # C13073, is somewhat easy if you have experience installing hitches or have basic mechanical abilities. The main obstacles that you will encounter during the installation is lowering the exhaust and trimming the heat shield. These steps are shown in the installation video that I have attached on a 2012 Kia Sorento. If your vehicle did not come with a factory tow prep package, then the trailer wiring harness for your vehicle is the Curt Wiring...

  • Trailer Hitch and Hitch Mount Bike Rack Recommendations for a 2010 Hyundai Sante Fe
    With any of the available trailer hitches for the 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe, the cross tubing is going to be somewhat visible beneath the rear fascia, so I would not say that any of them are low profile. I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch, # C13073. It is a little more economical than the other available hitches and it will work on models with single or dual exhaust. I have included a link to the installation instructions below. For a bike rack, I recommend the Curt # C18085. This rack secures...

  • What Size are the Trailer Hitch Receiver Bolts and Weld Nuts on a 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe
    The weld nuts in your 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe will use Grade 5 bolts that are M10- 1.25 x 30. There is also another bolt, washer, and nut on each side required for the installation of the Curt # C13073. The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 75684 will only use those four bolts and washers.

  • Will a CURT Trailer Hitch Fit a 2012 Kia Sorento SX with Single Exhaust
    The CURT Trailer Hitch # C13073, is designed to fit on your 2012 Kia Sorento SX since it has single exhaust, with only minor heat shield modification required under the vehicle. For the hitch to install properly, the heat shield will need to be cut and reinstalled. You will remove about 8 inches from the heat shield and you can use aviator shears to trim it. I have included a link to the installation details and a link to a video showing a typical installation for you. If you plan on doing...

  • Best Trailer Hitch for 2017 Kia Sorento EX
    The Curt hitch # C13073 does fit the Kia Sorento for model years 2011 through 2013, but for your 2017 Sorento the correct Curt hitch to use is part # C13195. Your 2017 model year is part of the 3rd generation of this vehicle and that means that changes to the car's frame required Curt to design a new hitch for the later model years. The great news is this correct hitch # C13195 actually has much higher weight capacities, 750-lbs tongue weight and 5000-lbs towing capacity, as compared to...

  • Does Installation of Curt Class III Hitch # C13073 Affect Factory Warranty on a 2012 Kia Sorento LX
    There is actually a Federal Law called the Federal Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act. This Act states that if something breaks on your vehicle and you take it in for warranty repair, the dealer must honor your warranty unless whatever modifications you have added to your vehicle actually caused the prob­lem in question. Because of this law I would not worry about adding an aftermarket trailer hitch or trimming the heat shield voiding your vehicles factory warranty, unless you overload the trailer...

  • Thread Tap to Use with Hitch Install Hardware for Curt Hitch C13073
    This is a very common issue. The issue is that the weld nuts are still dirty and need to be cleaned further or tapped so that your hitch hardware can install. We have the correct thread tap to use with the hitch # C13073 with the part # PTW8618.

  • How to Determine if 2012 Kia Sorento Has Factory Tow Package
    For a hitch, I'd recommend going with the Draw-Tite Class III hitch, part # 75684 instead of the Curt hitch you mentioned. The Curt hitch warranty requirements state that a stabilizing strap like part # 18050 must be used for non trailer loads like bike racks or cargo carriers. Unfortunately, the small spoiler atop the rear hatch of your Sorento can be damaged by the strap which is why I recommend a different hitch. The Draw-Tite model will fit all models of the 2012 Sorento, regardless...

  • Trailer Wiring Harness Recommendation for a 2012 Kia Sorrento SX V6
    The Curt Hitch part # C13073 would be a great hitch for your 2012 Kia Sorento V6 SX. For trailer wiring there are two scenarios. If you have the tow package you would want the Curt Wiring harness part # C56332. If you do not have the tow package or don't want to bother figuring out if you do you can get the Curt Wiring harness part # C59496. Either way the # C59496 will work so it is a safe bet. But if you do have the tow package you can go with the # C56332 as it will install a bit easier...

  • Does Curt Trailer Hitch C13073 Require Use of Stabilizer Strap with Bike Rack
    At one point Curt required the use of stabilizer straps with their hitches like the # C13073 but they recently stopped requiring the straps so based on that this hitch would be the one you'd want. I attached an install video for this hitch on a similar vehicle for you to check out as well.

  • Best Hitch Stabilizer for 2" Hitch on 2011 Kia Sorento
    The best hitch stabilizer for the Curt # C13073 hitch on your 2011 Kia Sorento is the Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # 63232 which will both secure and stabilize your towing setup. The only thing to note is that to use the Anti-Rattle Lock you are going to have to have a hollow shank on your ball mount or accessory. I've added a link to a video review of this lock for you to check out.
