This fully welded trailer hitch receiver bolts onto your vehicle's frame with no welding required. Powder coated steel is sturdy and corrosion resistant.Box came damaged but the hitch was not. I watched the installation videos for this and the Drawtite and decided on the Curt per the recommendation of better fitment. The install video made installation a breeze. I had one issue not with the hitch but one of the threaded holes in the frame it was whacked. It took a minute but I was able to tap out the hole and get the hitch installed. I like the fact that the frame of the hitch is hidden behind the bumper and I have plenty of room for my bike rack. Nice addition to my 2022 Santa Fe.
The install was super easy and very quick. The hitch hides up under the body and all that is exposed is the area for the receiver. I would advise an extension and both deep well and regular socket head to make the install easier. Doing the install under the car on the ground added a little extra effort but was still easily accessible.
I decided to not jack up my 2021 KIA Sorento SX and I was still able to install, it took about 2 hours. Although the instructions recommends another person for help to hold it in place, I used my jack stands instead. I really like how the bar is tucked in and hidden with just the hitch showing. Overall I thought installation was quicker compared to my 2016 KIA Sorento SXL and 2019 Chrysler Pacifica Touring Plus S but for those I also installed the wire harnesses. I will purchase it for this vehicle later. My experience with etrailer has been great, their prices and products in my opinion is two thumbs up.
Nice looking installation. Instruction and Video on etrailer site were very helpful. Some difficulty with bolt just above muffler even after it was dropped. A 19mm ratchet wrench was helpful. I did manage to do it myself without jacking it up.
One of the big reasons I went with etrailer is the wealth of information they provided on various hitches that were made for my car. Great informational website and install videos! In addition, the online shopping experience was great as the site made recommendations about additional products related to the hitch I bought.
Delivery time was excellent, and all of my purchases arrived I damaged. 100% recommended!
Installation manual was spot on and I was able to install it (myself) in about 60 minutes. When you go to install this hitch receiver, you will need a socket extension of at least 4". A torque wrench will be good to ensure tightness.
the one odd item was that on my 2022 Sorento Plugin hybrid, the frame rails are about 1/2 inch wider than the receiver bolt plates. So, the unit does not "rub metal" between the frame. Otherwise the bolt holes are aligned perfectly and mounting was a breeze.
Very well constructed. Fits perfect on my 2021 Santa Fe. Looks clean from the back only the hitch receiver shows. No problems installing product.
I watched the video prior to ordering, and it was excellent. When my hitch and wiring harness came it all went on super easily. Thirty minutes from start to finish, everything fit perfectly, and the installation is fantastic. I think it looks better than the OEM option, since the frame is all hidden and the only visible thing is the receiver itself. Bonus points for the free shipping and quick delivery.
I installed the hitch on a 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe Calligraphy in 1:20 minutes. The hitch is very well made and it was very easy to install.
Incredibly quick shipping and great communication from etrailer. Curt products never disappoint. Had to make one of the holes on the passenger side rear slightly larger to get all 6 bolts to line up before tightening down but not a huge deal. All around a great process with etrailer.
I've ordered from etrailer before and have NEVER been disappointed,
quality products at an affordable price. Installation of the hitch
was extremely easy, took about 1.5 hrs., Wiring harness 15 minutes, took
longer to remove cover than to install.
Super easy to install. Super easy. They have a insulation video on the webpage that shows step-by-step how to do it. I didn’t even need to lift my car off the ground to put it on. Just tested it out this weekend on a camp out where I attached a cargo carrier and bike rack in one. It put a lot of torque on the hitch especially when you hit dips on the freeway going 70. The hitch didn’t budge. Now I just need to get heavy duty shocks.
great hitch, this is the third CURT hitch that I've purchased from etrailer. Decent pricing, good inventory, quick delivery, good quality.
Installation was very simple and video provided was perfect. Would definitely buy from etrailer again!
First, the design was excellent, everything lined up, all the bolt holes were spot on!
Next, the directions were very good, including the tip on how to release the muffler holders - rubber bushings. Once I dropped the muffler down out of the way, the rest of the installation was not too bad at all and I don't have a lift; I installed in while laying on the garage floor. Tip: having at least one jack stand to hold one side of the hitch in place (the side away from the muffler) was a big help.
Finally, I like the design of the hitch so that after the installation the only thing showing from the back of the car is the 2' receiver, the frame is designed so that it is not visible, a nice touch.
So overall, I am very pleased with my new Curt hitch and the etrailer directions and service.
Hitch came within 3 days of purchase. Installation was rather easy. I installed the hitch myself and it took a total of 45 minutes to complete the task. I used jack stands to support the hitch to get the first bolts seeded then it was just a matter of tightening them up and reattaching the muffler. Getting all the tools needed took more time than the install.
Watched the video on the site which was helpful.
My husband was able to install this all by himself. Super easy to do on the 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid Limited. Shipping was incredibly fast and pleased with updates and notifications. Product was everything we hoped. Thank you!
The hitch receiver was an exact fit for my 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe. 1 hour to install with excellent instructions. Did NOT have to bend Exhaust isolator mount as described in instructions, plenty of clearance. Did not raise vehicle to install. Totally elated with the quality and looks of this product. The rubber cap ( in photos) was not included.
Etrailer install video made it easy, took me about 3 hours because I had to get a socket from Home Depot. Great quality and good fit.I did it all by myself with the help of my jack to support the hitch as I inserted the bolts.
This was my 2nd time ordering a trailer hitch from etrailer. In both cases, the hitch arrived quickly, and the customer service was excellent. The how-to videos make installations much easier, and I appreciate the honest product reviews by the knowledgeable staff. Great job!
Arrived sooner thank I expected ! I wasn’t sure if I would install it or get someone to do it. At 70 I’m not sure about getting underneath a vehicle and get bleeding knuckles. I watched [online] on installation and it went just fine, no blood ! Thank you
Just installed on my new Sorento PHEV (plugin/hybrid). Followed the installation procedures in the video and the install was straightforward, took me a little over an hour from start to finish. Just know it'll be easier if you have car ramps and 4-6" extension for your 19mm socket wrench. I think it looks great on the vehicle, sanity checked it with my bike rack and everything is a go.
My new Sorrento was not available with a factory installed hitch when I bought it. Instead of bringing it back to the dealer and paying over $500 , I decided to buy it through Etrailer and install it myself. It was packaged great and the instructions were easy to follow. The video instructions were fantastic, I had my iPad on the tailgate as I went. I strongly recommend you giving it a shot, with basic hand tools (no power) it was installed in about 40 minutes. Hardest part was holding it up to install the bolts but a 2nd set of hands make it work a lot easier.
Easy install and a great look with it all tucked up under the number.
