Question:

Hello, I am wondering if its possible to use the same trailer hitch I currently have on the 2012 Nissan Rogue I currently own and put it on my 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe that Im purchasing? Or will I need to purchase a new hitch? Thanks!

Expert Reply:

Trailer hitches are a vehicle-specific product, so the hitch for your 2012 Nissan Rogue wouldn't work on your 2019 Santa Fe.

For the Santa Fe, I'd recommend the Curt Class III hitch, part # C13195. If you'll be using the hitch for towing purposes, you'll also need a trailer wiring harness like # CU94FR, a ball mount like # D-28, a # PC3 hitch pin and either a # 19260 1-7/8 inch or # 63845 2-inch trailer ball.

I've linked to install videos for the hitch and the trailer wiring harness.
