So far so good after install on a 2018 Subaru Impreza (5door). Only use has been for the 1Up bike rack. No issues, installation was a piece of cake.



by:

Absolutely love the installation videos. Also It was a nice touch to see the name and picture of the person who verified, picked packed my order. Very impressed that it was done so quickly after I ordered and very impressed with speed of delivery!!



by:

I was very happy with my order and transaction with etrailer.com. I got exactly what i was looking for at a good price, but what I loved most was their fabulous customer service, particularly during this time dealing with businesses limited by the Coronavirus. I had a concern as to whether my order went through, but I received a very quick response, by phone, reassuring me it did. I received my item (a hitch for a bike rack for my Subaru Impreza) in just a couple of days and had my mechanic mount it today. Looks great! Very inconspicuous!



by:

Perfect fit for 2024 impreza rs. Easy i nstallation



by:

Outstanding customer service. Installed the hitch in about 2 hours with a couple of issues because I didn’t have an extension for my wrench otherwise would had been faster. Put my bike rack no issues



by:

Fit well and works great for my bike ra ck



by:

This hitch fit perfectly on my vehicle. All the parts necessary to install it were included with simple directions. The websites was easy to navigate and shipping updates were frequent and accurate.



by:

Thank you Jay ( and Jessica too) for your help. We installed the hitch without issue. Very satisfied with your service, products and pricing. Have a great day!

Straight forward, wish I didn't need to file 2 holes larger in the frame to fit the bolts but other than that, exactly what I expected, awkward to bolt up but not difficult at the end of the day



by:
2017 SubaruImpreza

Quality materials (including mounting hardware) are used and quality welds hold it all together. Even the coats of black paint look durable. The overall construction and installation inspire confidence when towing. There was no mention in the included installation instructions that loosening the plastic bumper valence and muffler mounts was recommended to reduce the installation effort of the hitch under a 2017 Subaru Impreza.

Good price and it showed up quickly!

The product has been awesome in terms of use. The instructions were a little misleading however when installing. They make it seem like it should be super easy to file holes in your cars frame to secure the hitch itself. However it’s not that simple, we tried multiple different tools and methods to file down our frame and it took much longer than we expected. Product itself has been wonderful. My boyfriend and I installed it on our 2017 Subaru Impreza and traveled from Washington, down the coast, across to the east end of Texas, up to Montana and back around. We spent several months on this trip hauling our homemade travel trailer and our car had no problems safely towing our project.

Hitch arrived today as promised. There was a hole in the package but we inspected the merchandise and am 99½% sure there was no damage. That metal is pretty sturdy and there doesn't appear to be any problem. Looking forward to getting it installed on the car so we can start camping when the weather warms up.

We have sold the car that the hitch was installed on. Might have to purchase a new one for the new car we bought.



by:

1 hour and it was on. Fits great.



by:

I waited a little to write this review.
I am a reasonably handy person and decided to tackle this myself. Just needed a jack, jack stands and a step bit for my drill. I didn't get hurt and my car didn't fall apart. I do recommend having someone else help you get the hitch up to the bolts... however it is possible to do by yourself with a little ingenuity.

I also think it is important to get a hitch stabilizer so your stuff isn't just bouncing around back there.

Works great. Would do again.



by:

I've had this installed for a year now and it's been great! I installed it myself in under an hour by myself. If you can get a second set of hands to help you that would be better! Instructions were very detailed and the fit is perfect. I use my hitch for a bike rack and couldn't be happier.



by:
2017 SubaruImpreza

Excellent quality. Easy, sturdy install that requires few tools, all of them from a basic tool kit. The only time consuming part was widening the two holes in the frame which was clearly stated up front. Better than other options ad I did not have to fiddle with the muffler. Good snug fit which is important on this low clearance car. Only reason for 4 vs 5 stars is that even if I had to cut a little out of my bumper I'd love to have the hitch sit even higher. Once again, this is a low slung vehicle. Still, would recommend it to anyone interested in a hitch. etrailer had excellent redundant instructions, way before package tracking than I expected and seems poised for great customer service with I didn't need to take advantage of due to ease of installation.

2017 SubaruImpreza

The hitch bought was for my 2017 Subaru Impreza Hatchback. It was packed well, with all bolts and such included. It arrived on the day expected, and the free shipping was a plus. I had a friend install it and he encountered no problems. I would recommend this product and etrailer.com to anyone.

by:

Relatively easy to install. Pay close attention to the bolts as they are different sizes. I found out the hard way and had to work them back through the hole after I fished them in. This added an hour to my time. The 1 hour novice time for me increased to 2 hours. Ha! The hitch was a perfect fit. It was a little hard to get my muffler back up in place with some of the hitch metal bracket in the way when trying to raise it back. It works, but it took some additional time. I highly recommend this and Etrailer. Fast delivery!

  • Comparing Curt And Draw-Tite Trailer Hitches For A 2022 Subaru Impreza
    Hey Jamie, I do typically prefer Curt's quality over Draw-Tite, however Curt only has a class I hitch # C11465 whereas Draw-Tite has a class II hitch # 36644 that's going to have an increased capacity for the same cost as the Curt hitch. This would have a 3,500lb gross towing capacity (GTW) and 350lb tongue weight (TW) capacity instead of just a 2,000lb GTW and 200lb TW capacity. You'll still need to check your Impreza's towing capacity to ensure you're not exceeding what it can handle...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For A 2024 Subaru Impreza
    Hey Jericho, The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11465 only fits 2017 - 2023 models so you'll need the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C29PV instead. If you plan on towing a trailer or want to add lights to a bike rack/cargo carrier then I recommend picking up the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118744 as well.

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2018 Subaru Impreza w/ the Best Ground Clearance
    I have a better option for you but you are correct the Draw-Tite item # 76209 will have the same clearance problems as the Curt item # C11465 hitch. Instead, I recommend the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch item # 306-X7350. This hitch is also confirmed to fit your 2018 Subaru Impreza. The reason the EcoHitch is a better option is that the main crosstube mounts behind the rear bumper cover instead of below it. This puts the bottom of the 2" receiver 11" above the ground.

  • Availability Of A Trailer Hitch For A 2024 Subaru Impreza
    We do have the Curt hitch # C11465 for the 2023 Subaru Impreza, but we have not confirmed fitment for the 2024 models yet (August 2023). We do expect to get fitment info within the coming months, so please check back with us in the future. If you need to carry bikes, we can offer you a trunk mount bike rack like the Yakima Fullback 2 # Y02634. This rack is designed to be universal and can hold two bikes weighing up to 35 lbs apiece. It also has a built in bike lock for added security.

  • Ground Clearance of Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver on 2018 Subaru Impreza Hatchback
    When we installed the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11465 on a 2018 Subaru Impreza hatchback, we found that it measured 11-3/4" from the top of the receiver to the ground.

  • Best Trailer Hitch for 2018 Subaru Impreza
    Since all hitches are made of steel and are designed to bolt on to the exact same points on any given vehicle there is not usually much weight difference between brands of hitches of the same receiver size and Class rating. But in the case of your 2018 Subaru Impreza Wagon there are actually three different Classes of hitch available, Classes I, II and III, which do have differing weights since some simply have more steel material.

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2017 Subaru Impreza that Doesnt Require Stabilizer Strap
    Lower capacity Curt trailer hitches like the part # C11465 do require the stabilizer strap part # 18050 (or something similar) when carrying a non-supported load like a bike rack. Failure to do this will void the warranty of the hitch. That's why the Draw Tite hitch part # DT24959 would be a much better option for your 2017 Subaru Impreza as it does not have that requirement.

The tongue weight capacity will be the same as most Class II hitches, but the restriction remains.

  • What Hitch Size is Available for 2024 Subaru Impreza
    For lighter duty vehicles like your 2024 Subaru Impreza there isn't always the larger 2 inch hitch size available. This is because this hitch size is more commonly seen on heavier duty vehicles like trucks and SUVs. So best option is a 1-1/4 inch hitch like the Curt # C11465 that fits your vehicle and a rack that fits this hitch size like the # HR200Z.

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2017 Subaru Impreza
    For your 2017 Subaru Impreza the hitch I would go with is the Draw Tite part # DT24959 because this hitch does not require a stabilizer strap when carrying a non-supported load like a bike rack like the Curt # C11465 does. Also the price for the Draw Tite is much better than the Curt.

There was a design change for the 2017 models. The correct Curt trailer hitch receiver for your 2017 Subaru Impreza 5 door wagon is part # C11465.
