CURT 13152 Class 3 Trailer Hitch, 2-Inch Receiver, Fits Select Kia Sorento, Hyundai Santa Fe

Ordered for my vehicle using the fitting chart on the website. The installation chart provided on the website is accurate. Bolt-on mounting holes were accurately placed. Fit to the vehicle perfectly. Wiring harness included, provided extra length to complete the install. Good quality metal.

This hitch fit my 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport 2.0T very well. The mounting holes lined up perfectly with the existing trailer hitch mounting holes in the vehicle. I drove the back wheels onto some boards to raise it slightly. You have to lower the spare tire, which is easy. Then you slide the exhaust hanger pins out of the 3 rubber isolators so it drops down slightly. This was not real easy but the advice in the instructions was clear and it worked. Next you remove plastic fascia from the left and right sides. The fasteners look like screws but they aren't. Turn them some and then use your fingernails or a knife blade to get under the head and pull down as you turn it more and it will pull out easily. At tbe top of the fascia are two guide pins which are serrated and the fascia pulls off of them. On my vehicle there are pre-wired sockets under these fascia for connecting the somewhat pricey OEM trailer wiring. I then held the hitch in place while bolting it in. The only help I had was someone to hand me the hardware. The next steps are to re-attach the exhaust, raise the spare tire, and re-attach the fascia. On the drivers side fascia, I had to drill a 1/4" hole in the plastic so the rear guide pin could come through since it was off a little. This is hidden way up under the car so it is not at all visible and preferable to cutting the plastic so the original hole would line up. From now on I will have to push the spare tire back slightly while raising and lowering it to clear the hitch. The hitch looks good and is well made with nice paint. It hangs just under the bumper perfectly. I will be getting the wiring from the Hyundai dealer and be ready to tow.

Things to remember (which they are up front on with the instructions):1. You will need a torque wrench that goes up to 110 ft/lbs to tighten 4 of the bolts, the other 4 are tightened to 48 ft/lbs.2. Read the instructions thoroughly first so you are familiar with the install procedure.3. You will have to loosen the muffler from the exhaust hangers, I only did the back 2, they recommend doing the back 3 but I did not have the luxury of a lift or jack stands (I did this on my back in my driveway) so I made it a little harder on myself.4. Get a can of penetrating lubricant so you can spray out the 4 nuts that are built into the body of the vehicle. I spent a bit of time cleaning them out & making sure that I could get the bolts cleanly into them before I mounted the hitch.5. When you mount the hitch, set all the bolts finger tight so you can make sure that everything is in place before torquing everything down.The hitch comes complete with all the mounting hardware necessary, all it takes is time & patience. I did it by myself and it did take me a few hours but I also live in the Northeast & I wanted to make sure that the various mounting points were clear of debris before installation.Installation is clean & looks like it was there from the factory.

This worked perfectly on a 2014 Kia Sorento. The hardest part of all was getting the exhaust off the rubber supports. When it works it works. The Product is more solid than the car frame itself!

Fits good on my car but it was missing a couple of screws and bolts

Pros: fits great, looks pretty good (at first - see below), fairly easy install.Cons: shipping damage, paint durability (rusted almost immediately).First one arrived (barely) in a flimsy box (not packed well) bent, beat up, scraped, and gouged. I returned it and they sent another. 2nd was packed a little better and had only one scrape which I painted over so it wouldn't rust. For my vehicle (2016 Santa Fe), I did have to cut off the bumper guide pins, but only disconnected two exhaust hangers instead of the recommended two.Now the bad part. After ONLY 2 WEEKS on the vehicle, it's already rusting. And in a highly-visible area (no, not the scraped area from shipping that I had to paint) and along a weld which could affect it's strength and durability. Now I have to decide if I want to take the time to take it off and return it or clean off the rust and paint it. This is my first Curt product and now will likely be my last. If you can't design a product that mounts to the outside of a vehicle that can't survive at least several years without rusting, then you have failed.

Fit perfectly on our 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport. Was disappointed that the hitch did not come in a box. It only had a couple of pieces of paper covering some (not much) of it and was scratched in places when it arrived. I know, it's going to be sitting underneath our vehicle for years, but when you buy something new you'd like to be the one who does the scratching.Some notes about installation.1. We have a hydraulic jack. This really helped to support the weight of the hitch and manoeuvre it into place so I could get a couple of bolts on and hold the hitch in place.2. There are pins under the vehicle that poke out right next to where the hitch bolts on. Only the one on the drivers side interfered with installation so I cut about 1/4 inch off with bolt cutter (no need to grind both pins off) and was able to tighten the bolts no problem.3. Getting the bolt tension adjusted to the right torque is a real pain especially on the passenger side next to the exhaust. Don't re-attach the exhaust hangers until the bolts are torqued up - there's almost no room to work.Can't wait for the weather to clear up so we can put the bike rack on the SUV and take the bikes out for a ride.
