Question:
Interested in adding a hitch to our Chevy Cruze to carry a mobility scooter and rack. The scooter weighs approx 137 lbs while the rack would be approx 75. Would this mount be able to handle those combined?

Expert Reply:
No, it wouldn't. The Curt Trailer Hitch item # C11282 has a maximum tongue weight capacity of 200 lbs. Your scooter and rack would need to be under this combined and you're 12 lbs over. If you could remove some weight off of the scooter to get it at or under the 200 lbs capacity this hitch could work. You really don't want to exceed your vehicle's capacity.
The Curt Trailer Hitch item # C11282 fits the 2011 - 2015 Chevy Cruze. The only other option available is the Draw-Tite item # 24882 which has an identical capacity.
