2013 Honda Crosstour Fit Installation Concerns w/ Spare Tire and Hitch Placement

Published 02/16/2022

Question:

Hello, I am looking into this item and wondering if this hitch will impede the access to the spare since they’re both at the bottom. I tried to read the QandAs and looked for videos but didn’t find any answers. If you have images and or videos that would show this that would be very helpful. Looking forward to your response, thanks in advance.

I would be happy to help you. The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver item # 306-X7299 attaches to your Crosstour behind the rear bumper not below your car where the spare tire is. I have attached some pictures from the installation instructions that will show this. The only part of the hitch that hangs down where your spare tire is will be the 2"x2" receiver tube.
