Updated 11/20/2020 | Published 11/19/2020

Question:

According to your website, your Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4, Item # C11447 is confirmed to Fit my 2005 Saturn Ion. Your video shows it being installed on a 2007 Saturn Ion. Are there any differences between the 2005 and 2007 Saturn Ion where your part is installed? Thank you.

The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11447 is compatible with the 2006 - 2007 Saturn Ion Ion3 with 2.4L Engine and the 2004 - 2007 Saturn Ion Red Line. If you don't have the Red Line, the 2005 model won't fit with this hitch receiver. You will need to instead use the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11115 which is compatible with 2003 - 2003 Saturn Ion, 2004 - 2005 Saturn Ion excluding Red Line, 2006 - 2007 Saturn Ion excluding Red Line and Ion3 with 2.4L Engine, and 2004 - 2007 Saturn Ion Red Line.

I've attached installation instructions for each hitch receiver.
