• Can The etrailer Hitch e62AR Be Installed On A 2018 Cadillac XT5 Platinum?
  Hi Jaimee! The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2" # e62AR can fit your 2018 Cadillac XT5, but the Platinum package does complicate things. The reason being that stainless steel skid plate they put on the back of them. You will need to purchase 3 GM parts to get the hitch installed (we do not carry these, so you will need to source them elsewhere) and it is a bit of work to get done, but it can be done. Here are the extra parts you will need: QTY.1...

• Which etrailer Hitch Fits 2019 Cadillac XT4
  The only hitch that we have, as of June 2023, that fits your 2019 Cadillac XT4 is the Curt part # C39FR. The etrailer hitch that you asked about, # e62AR, actually fits the XT5 models so it would not work for you. If you were looking for trailer wiring too the Tekonsha kit part # 118795 is what I recommend as it installs very easily without requiring any splicing.

• Wiring Harness For 2025 Cadillac XT5 With 4-Flat And 7-Way
  Hi Ed! I wasn't sure which hitch you were looking at, but I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2" # e62AR. The matte black finish helps hide it better than glossy options, which I think looks more stock-ish. The wiring will be a little more difficult, but not overly so. There isn't a wiring harness for your '25 Cadillac XT5 that has both the 7-way and 4-flat, but it is possible to get something that does. You will need to start...

• Are there 1-1/4" Hitches for a 2021 Cadillac XT5?
  Hey Gregg. The only hitches available for the 2021 Cadillac XT5 are 2" ones like our etrailer item # e62AR. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver that has a 750 lbs maximum tongue weight. What specific make and model bike rack do you have? Most of the ones that fit a 1-1/4" hitch won't let you use an adapter like the MaxxTow item # MT70033. You'll want to use a reducer sleeve like item # e63YR. This simply slides into the 2" receiver and makes it smaller so a 1-1/4" accessory will...

• Trailer Hitch Receiver Fit for 2018 Cadillac XT5
  A trailer hitch from a 2013 Cadillac SRX will not fit your 2018 Cadillac XT5, which means you will need a new hitch. The hitch I recommend for your 2018 Cadillac XT5 is the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e62AR. I like this hitch above the Curt Trailer Hitch # C13285 because the Draw-Tite has slightly better ground clearance than the Curt, which is important to keep things like accessories from hitting the ground. I have added a photo showing with this hitch looks like on a 2018 XT5...

• Best Bike Rack for Clearing the Rear Hatch on a Cadillac XT5
  Thanks for the pictures! I have a solution for you but there is a couple of issues with using the Inno Tire Hold bike rack. The hitch pin hole on the etrailer item # e62AR hitch for your 2017 Cadillac XT5 sits pretty far back from the edge of your bumper at 6". I would not recommend using the Inno Tire Hold Bike Rack for 1 Bike - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches item # INH110 because of the lack of clearance. The distance from the hitch pin hole to the closest point on the carrier is 6" so you will...

• Installing etrailer Trailer Hitch # e62AR on 2018 Cadillac XT5
  When installing the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e62AR, which is confirmed to fit your 2018 Cadillac XT5, you will want to use the included pull wire to feed the carriage bolts and spacers into the frame rails. Leaving the pull wires attached, you will then feed the carriage bolts through the bracket holes and raise the hitch into position.

  Yes, the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e62AR will include the 6 fish wires to install the six 7/16" carriage bolts and square hole spacers.

  We have all of the components you need to tow a trailer with your 2017 Cadillac XT5 but we don't have the Cadillac brand towing package.

• Towing Capacity Of 2017 Cadillac XT5 Luxury AWD And Trailer Hitch Receiver Compatibility
  The etrailer Trailer Hitch # e62AR and the Curt Trailer Hitch # C13285 for your 2017 Cadillac XT5 are rated for capacity based only on the hitch, not the vehicle. You will be limited by the vehicle capacity, and not the capacity of the hitch. In this case, using either hitch with that large a trailer weight would void your warranty on the vehicle, but not the individual hitches.

• Covering an Exposed Hitch on a 2017 Cadillac XT5
  I did some looking around, but I was unable to find anything we carry to accomplish a quick release of this panel. That being said, this does not mean there is nothing available. We do have an alternate option, however. A hitch cover like the Au-Tomotive Gold Hitch Covers Plain Black Cover # AUT-BNK2-RB, or the Curt Chrome Cover # F-10P would be good options to fill in the gap.

• Would Hitch from 2010 Cadillac SRX Fit on 2018 Cadillac XT5
  The two vehicles are different enough that a hitch that fits one of them would not fit the other. So for the 2018 Cadillac XT5 you'd need the etrailer part # e62AR that you referenced. I attached and install video for this hitch on a very similar 2017 XT5 as yours for you to check out as well. If you are in need of trailer wiring, you'd want the # 118720 as well. Install video attached for this too.

• Are Curt and etrailer Hitch for 2023 Cadillac XT5 Same
  The etrailer hitch # e62AR and the Curt # C13285 that fit the 2023 Cadillac XT5 are both made by same company so they would have exact same clearance dimensions. Everything I am seeing online says the 24' XT5 is a carryover from the 23' model so the hitches should carry over.
