Tech Tip
Drilling through vehicle frame required for installation
excellent
Great fit and finish. Had ordered Curt Hitch for my truck in the past and so I was happy and ordered one for my car.
Arrived in 4 days. Left at door step. Installed easily in about one and a half hours, including the wiring kit, mainly thanks to the video we watched.
The service was great.
I ordered this hitch one night and it was there the next day.
I was able to install it with minimal tools.
I would recommend etrailer to my friends
Great communication after ordering. Waiting at my door in 4 days. Installation was even easier than described. Very happy with product and service, Thanks
etrailer.com-great company Camry hitch great product but ground clearance a liitle scarce due to loop around muffler,watch those driveways! scared my wife a little scraping backing in!
Great product. Fit perfect on my 2003 Camry. Easy instructions. I did have to run a metric tap through factory weld nuts on the driver side of the frame, but this is no reflection on the product. The bolts that came with it screwed right in once threads were clear. I was able to install it in about an hour with minimal problems. I highly recommend this product.
Fast shipping. Easy to install with good instructions. The install video shows where the pre-threaded holes are found. Good quality. Would be even better if it included a 1 1/4 hitch cover. Very satisfied.
The Curt hitch receiver arrived in 4 business days using etrailer's standard free shipping which was great. I have plenty of DIY experience with tools, but my install time was more like 2-3 hours on on an 03 Camry. The difficulty was caused mostly by the two uncovered threaded bolt holes on the driver's side. They had rusted pretty bad and with only hand tools the job of "cleaning out the threads" took a while. Still I am very happy with the end result and Curt makes a very solid product.
It arrived quickly and went on pretty easily. It took about an hour, mostly to clean out the screw holes. My only issue is that the lowest portion of the hitch (on the right side of the hitch) is very low and scrapes on many driveways and dips. I will be pulling the hitch off after using it to make driving a little easier later, but will keep the hitch to reattach it as I need to. It is so easy to put it on, that it should be any problem.
Very nice and not difficult to install. You will need a torque wrench. Also I had to have a mechanic re-tap 2 holes in my frame because the threads were extremely rusted.
Arrived in 2 days. Packaging was excellent, not a mark on it.
It's a trailer hitch so not much to review. Instructions were adequate. Installation was fairly easy except my Camry's built-in nut threads were rusted and had to carefully clean them up before bolting on the hitch.
Last Friday evening (right in the middle of October) I finally installed this Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver into my 2003 Toyota Camry. This is a Class II hitch but seems like a Class III one, very sturdy, and the installation was a success. I spend a lot of time cleaning the two holes on the driver side which were exposed to the elements for the last 18 years, and then I actually drove in three old bolts which I took off from the passenger side's muffler mount, and that was preparing for the actual installation of the hitch. I just worked by myself, as my young son is not too mechanically inclined and not interested in such a thing, so I used my own technique, just tied a pleated electrical cable (3/16" diam) to the rear bumper and then I lifted up and suspended the hitch to around the middle part of the bumper. Then I screwed in one bold on passenger end first, then tightening then cable, the screwed in a bolt into the middle hole on the driver side. I used two more bolts on the passenger side, and one more on the driver side. But I have an extra hole on the driver side so I reused one old bolt for the previously never-exposed hole and then tightening all bolts properly. Then on the next day I test drive my car with this hitch and Allen bicycle carrier rack which I loaded two bikes. On thing I noticed is that the lower hanging part of the hitch around the muffler tend to hit the asphalt when came out from a parking lot due to a dip in height (difference) from sidewalk to the main road, may be I was moving a little bit fast for the shock absorber to respond sufficiently.
(BTW, our bikes' tires are low in air pressure or just flat because these were not used for a very long while, since COVID-19 pandemic began, and we avoided activities at any public parks and other places, and because we live in a condominium-type of apartments, we were not as "busy bees" except to stay put in the "hive".)

The product is in excellent condition, and I carried my two bicycles with it using another attachment ed into it. The only issue I have is that my old shock absorbers in the rear of car failed and so every time I go over a speed bump too many here, due to many rowdy and uncontrolled drivers and so the rear edge that protects the muffler often scrape the ground as necessary. So, I will replace those shock absorbers soon.
Hitch for a 2002 Toyota Camry XLE to add a bike rack. Paid for shipping, showed up on time, UPS delivered in good shape, easy to install and the bike rack fit. Very happy with etrailer.com and the Curt hitch.

After a year hitch for bike rack still working as intended and looking good.
20 minutes install time. 1997 Toyota Camry LE V6. The car frame holes in back(4) were already threaded to accept supplied bolts. No need for nuts or U bolts. I recommend cleaning bolt holes to clear years of dirt/grime. The bolt fitment into threaded holes will be tight but bolts are correct. Makita rechargeable impact driver made install a snap. Use anti seize if you plan on removing at a later date.
The hitch shop wanted $400.00 to get and install the receiver. I ordered the part from you with ease from the website. When it arrived I installed it in less than 30 minutes. I watched the short video on the website and it went right in. All the holes lined up perfectly. The only problem I had was my sockets rolling down the driveway. Great product easy install and great instructions.
Easy ordering and a fast delivery. The hitch installed easily and all components are well made and solid. I haven't towed with it yet, but expect no problems.
Perfect. Exactly what I ordered and it arrived in a reasonable amount of time (actually 3 days ahead of expectation). It's an exact fit on my 2002 Toyota Camry. No drilling meant a quick under 30 minutes install. I will not hesitate ordering from eTrailer again.

Still perfect. No rust whatsoever. Rock solid.
It was easy enough to put on following the instructions to the letter. Has held up fine and have no issues with the purchase.
Curt trailer hitch for 2001 Toyota Avalon
Received my hitch quickly. Watched a couple of videos on installation and installed it in 15 minutes less than proposed. Took about 1:15 but only because the existing holes to be used were difficult to make usable,(mostly small amount of rust). When they recommend two people, they're not wrong. Just for holding in place for putting bolts in.
If you can beat the price, shipping and ease of installation from somewhere else, I'd be very surprised!
Very pleased with my new hitch!!

The hitch is still used with satisfaction. Its only used for small jobs. I recommend it if youre worried about a do-it-yourselfer. Its easy.
I was anxious to install my new Curt trailer hitch when it arrived today because we are picking up the camper tomorrow. To prepare I watched a video on installation and was pleased that I was able to install it as quickly as the video indicated. It literally took six bolts. No drilling, no prying, no forcing. I am very pleased with both the product and the ease of installation!

The products are still working like new. We are very pleased that you are following up and with our purchase ?
Plan on using this to pull a small John boat with my car, have ordered a hitch receiver from etrailer before and used it often. The shipping shipped out the day I bought it and arrived within 3 business days! Impressive

It has worked really well for me!! Thank you! I appreciate you checking back in!
Just installed it today, and it was fairly straightforward once I read through the instructions and watched the instructional video. Haven't used it yet, but seems super solid. I wish it came with the wiring kit, or that I was made aware that it did not come with one when I ordered, as lights are necessary to legally tow anything on the road. But, I was able to pick one up for <$40 at O'Reilly's, so not a big deal. I would recommend this tow receiver based on my experience thus far.
This is not a review of etrailer. it is a review of the Curt hitch. I have two other Curt hitches that I really like. This hitch would probably be ok on a Camry, but my install was on a 2001 Avalon to use for a bike rack. It does not clear the exhaust pipe so the exhaust blows directly on the hitch. I am going to have to extend the tailpipe a couple of inches to keep it from ruining the finish on the hitch. It also does not extend enough past the bumper. The other Curt hitches work much better with my rack. Again, it is probably ok on a Camry, but is not a good fit on the Avalon. I wish I had gone with the other option.
I bought the hitch to mount a bicycle rack. The hitch is very low under the muffler. It drags on steep driveway curbs and speed bumps. The pin to connect the hitch to the bicycle rack is very close to the bumper making attachment awkward and only goes in a certain way.
Sears installed the hitch for me. They are familiar with Curt hitches.
I have removed the hitch when not in use.
