This fully welded trailer hitch receiver bolts onto your vehicle's frame with no welding required. Matte black, powder coated steel is durable and corrosion resistant and creates a rugged look.
Features:
Specs:
The sturdy steel construction is protected with a matte black finish for added durability. This unique powder coating gives etrailer hitches a carbide-like appearance and a rugged look that sets them apart from traditional glossy hitches. In addition to being rust and corrosion resistant, the tough matte coating hides dirt, scuffs, and dings better than a glossy finish.
At etrailer we're committed to the products we sell, and to our customers. Our experienced and knowledgeable staff are available via both phone and email to address your questions and concerns for the lifetime of your hitch. The technicians at etrailer perform hitch installations on a daily basis, making them a valuable resource for do-it-yourselfers. The one-on-one, personal service you'll receive comes straight from an expert in the towing and automotive field. We've installed it, we've wired it and we've towed with it, so whatever your question, we can answer it.
Looks great, works great. I had mine installed by my mechanic, as my 2020 Ford Escape Hybrid had some complexity required for installation (exhaust had to be moved out of the way). I don’t use it for towing, just to connect a bike rack. I appreciate that there’s no visible bar across the backside, the only part you see is the square receiver tube.
I had this unit installed on a 2023 Ford Escape. It was an exact fit Due to my age I had a garage install it but it was a piece of cake for them. There may have been a bolt to temporarily remove on each side of the frame. The fit means that the bolt-up left no gaps and as the picture shows it fits like etrailer said it would. I just go up town and rent a trailer when I need to move a large bulky item that doesn't fit into my truck box.I use it for utility trailer or my bike rack. I'm satisfied.

That's great, Mike! What kind of bike do you ride? The hitch looks awesome :)
The hitch is high quality. I recommend following the installation instructions exactly. I had a couple holes that didn't line up and I had already bolted 4 down. I had to order the accessory bolts and fishwires (luckily etrailer gave me a good price), and buy a rasp bit for my drill to finish installation. Installation took longer than expected, but wasn't that hard.There was a slotted hole on the side of the frame that the hardware fit through.
Easy to follow instructions and the wire fish-line made this a breeze to install. Wish I didn't have to modify the holes on the frame of the car to accommodate the holes on the hitch (seems like they could just manufacture the holes on the hitch larger/ in a different location to begin with), but overall very pleased with the product. Bought to tow small trailer and also a bike rack. Seems like this will do the job just fine.
Installed on my 2021 escape phev, watch the videos on pulling the bolts through and moving some egr sensor slightly aside. Thanks etrailer.
Fit and assembled (mostly) as advertised. Note on the 2022 Escape SE Hybrid there is a heat shield extends onto the passenger side frame where the hitch is mounted, so there is a fastener that needs to be removed before you mount the hitch for a clean install. Otherwise all good. The video help was outstanding.
Website was easy to use. YouTube video was a great reference. Delivery was fast. Installation was easy. Fitment was right on. Definitely a doable project for the first-timer and quick work for a DIYer.
This is the 3rd hitch I have bought from etrailer so you can already tell that my experience has been excellent. The fit is perfect and took only a bit over an hour to install including stops to talk with neighbors. I am 71 yrs old and retired, so no need to rush. Before buying the hitch I had submitted a question regarding my application and received a quick and complete response.
I would not consider going anywhere but etrailer to purchase a hitch or other related parts.
This was an easy install. I had to drop the mufler down a bit to fit this. The n once the bracket was situated loose, I simply retightened the mufler back in it's original place. The fish wire was freaking amazing. I used an alagator clip and a magnet to help me pull the wire through. There is no need to drill any holes. Just use the slightly bigger hole slightly in front of the target bolt holes on the side of the frame rather than under it. It worked like a charm! I'm glad I did this myself rather than blow $$ on having it installed.

So far, still functional. I remember how easy this was to install. Im glad I did. We use it for mountain bikes. It certainly does the job.
I think e trailer is the best (least costly, best products, fastest, best customer service). I build trailers, I’ve shopped around in local stores and in the internet. I get all my parts from trailer.
Perfect fit. Very well designed hitch and everything needed to fish the anchors in place. The instruction video made it clear that the hole needed to be opened up to accommodate the metal block however they didn’t make it clear that the carriage was bigger than so. I had to work open it up more after an hour to get the fishing string in place. The second side went much faster just using a step bit to open hole.
Great product great instructions saw the video on YouTube from you guys good quality.
This is the best hitch for your Sienna. Tucks up under and preserves almost all of the little clearance they have! We did pay to have it installed...
Easy install. Used to haul motorcycle same day. Looks good. For elongating holes in frame (longest part of install). Used a carbide tip drill 1/4 inch (pilot) and then 1/2. Then 1/2 inch drill grinder to smooth out edges.
You had the hitch that I needed. I thought the price was very good. I installed it and it fits. Perfect thank you.

The hitch installed flawlessly no problem at all. If everything fit everything was in the package been using it for a year now with no complaints whatsoever would highly recommend it and E trailer to anyone.
Great product, well painted. Company kinda slow. Sent wrong part first order, sent it back and they sent me correct part I hope. Takes 14 days to get a refund on returned hitch. I think they deliberately send the wrong part the first time then milk all the interest they can out of your money for 2 weeks. When I asked why so long for a refund they replied "lots of returns".
Perfect fit, strong !

Delivery was on time, the item was packed well, everything was as in the package and the installation was exactly as described in the video. I am completely satisfied and will recommend etrailer to anyone look for towing items. I apologize for having no photos but I can assure you that it looks seamless and I can hardly notice that the hitch is there. It's as though it was put on at the Ford factory.

I am completely satisfied and would purchase from etrailer in the future.
The 6 bolt feeder wires made the job very easy.
I would highly recommend this hitch assembly.
Fit perfectly and finish is great. This is my second hitch from ETrader. I will buy my next hitch from here as well!
I e-mailed support to verify fit to a 2023 Ford escape PHEV, and they said its an exact fit. I knew from looking at the photos I would have to modify the hitch frame. Using a cut-off disk I removed several inches on the drivers side frame and sacrificed one bolt hole to accomodate a mounted plastic box that Ford installed on part of the frame. I could not locate all of the fasteners for the box so removing some steel was my best option. My hitch will only be used to haul a bike carrier or an aluminum cargo box, so this hitch will do the job. No modifications had to made to the vehicle. Every thing was stock when complete with the hitch install. Photo taken was without the heat shield, the last part to install when the job was done.
Perfect fit on 2020 Escape Titanium Hybrid. Zero trimming necessary. A cone bit it perfect for clearancing the back hole for bolts and washers to fit through. Put a pilot hole 1/2-3/4" in front of the rear hole and it's perfect for the rear bolt.
Works well and a great product! Install is a bit awkward for one person, but super easy directions and worked out well!
Had to cut 1/4 inch of the front to get the muffler brace to bolt up looks good very pleased
Hitch went on exactly like the YouTube video instructions. Looks great and arrived on time. I would definitely buy this hitch from etrailer again and will recommend to anyone.

Works exactly as it should. This is the only way to get a hitch if you’re a DIY person, quite simple.
