Troubleshooting Play in Curt Trailer Hitch for Ford Fiesta Hatchback
Updated 05/29/2019 | Published 05/26/2019
Question:
Installed the hitch with no issue and has been solid. I have a bike rack hitch on mine as well similar to other owners that have posted folds up by 1-up . However when its loaded or even without the right sight bends a little. Theres definitely some play on the right side but everything is tight and snugged up.

There really should not be any play with the Curt Trailer Hitch # C11067 that fits 2011 - 2019 Ford Fiesta hatchbacks. If you are sure this is the issue, I highly recommend taking a look at the linked installation instructions and ensuring the bolts are torqued to the specs in the instructions.
I've also added a link to a video of this hitch being installed on a Fiesta that I recommend taking a look at just to compare your install.
