Expert Reply:

There is a confirmed fit for a 2012 Chrysler 200 convertible and it is Curt Hitch # C11133. The Draw-Tite hitch is not yet a confirmed fit. The Curt hitch comes with the correct ball mount, hitch pin, and clip. For a ball you can use # 19256 for 1-7/8 inch diameter or # 19258 for a 2 inch diameter.

For trailer wiring, use the Vehicle Wiring Harness, # C56211. I have included a link to the installation instructions for the hitch and for the wiring harness for you.

I have a 2” hitch on my bike rack. What draw tight hitches will accommodate this bike rack and can be installed on a 2013 Chrysler 200 hardtop convertible? Thanks

There are only 1-1/4" trailer hitch receivers available for your 2013 Chrysler 200 Convertible. I specifically recommend the Curt # C11133. You'll then need to use an adapter like the Brophy # HTAD. If you can tell me what specific model bike rack you have, I may be able to recommend an alternative solution.

@ChrisR My bike rack is a HOLLYWOOD 3-bike capacity bike rack with a 2" square tube male hitch

@EdS Thanks for the info. The Brophy Adapter # HTAD along with the Curt hitch is what you need to use that rack on your Chrysler 200. Just note that with a Class I hitch you can only safely load 2 bikes and using that adapter will reduce the hitch capacity by 50 percent. Just make sure the loaded weight of the rack doesn't exceed 100 pounds.
