I installed this trailer hitch by myself. I laid under the suv and pulled the hitch up onto my stomach. Lifted each side into place. Fit perfectly over the threaded bolt holes. Had it installed in less than 30 minutes. I’m 73 years old and this is the third hitch I purchased from etrailer. All of their products have fit perfectly with no issues.

From start to finish approx 50 minutes. Strapped the hitch to my motorcycle lift,pushed and aligned under my 2021 Honda Passport and proceeded to tighten weld bolts. Incredible ease of use and saved myself $1000 for an install at the shop. Well designed and great finish.if you like to accomplish things by yourself while saving a ton of money,this product does it. Would highly recommend this product to others.



by:

6 bolts and it was on! - very easy. Did it on my own, using jack stands. Highly recommended.



by:
Honda Passport

The hitch has been working as it should. I use it for my bike hitch and charge boxes. Very easy to install with the right torque wrench. The 2 inch receiver feel way more secure and stable. Would recommend to anyone looking for a new hitch for a Passport.

Installed a Curtis Class 3 hitch that arrived from etrailer.com in less than 2 days onto new 2024 Honda Passport. Took only 15 min from the garage floor, no lift or jacks needed. Saved me $1,500 from dealer and $350 and 3 weeks from Uhaul. Awesome product & experience!!!

Install Video was right on and very nice hitch. But most impressive was the order process. From the minute they receive your order they are documenting the whole process for you to see. Who is handling the order, packaging etc right up to delivery. I have never seen anything like this VERY NICE!

This is my second time buying custom fit trailer hitch from you and both times the service was right on from placing the order and shipping.It was installed 30 minutes after delivered. Also both were custom fit and they were the fit my vehicles and install was not hard.

What is there not to like. My wife and I with a small hydraulic jack to help stabilize installed this hitch on our new Honda Passport in under a half hour. I did have the benefit of a 1/2” impact gun. Oh and I am 74 yrs old. This hitch is very nice and everything is tucked under the vehicle so all you see is the receiver tube.

The hitch always worked great. My Honda was recently damaged in a minor rear end collision and the body shop was going to replace the hitch with a Honda factory hitch but I gave them the info for E-Trailer and insisted on the C13421. I did not think the hitch needed replaced because the paint was just chipped but we are back to new and all is well. Great Hitch.

@Eugene Sorry about your traffic accident! Be sure the body shop checked the chassis of the car where the hitch installs to make sure it's not damaged...

2022 Honda Passport. Hitch is more expensive than hitches for other vehicles by about $49 in some cases.
Not much difference between hitches except for fitment.

Gregory

After one year the trailer hitch is working fine. 30 minute install time is probably good under optimal conditions. At 71 years of age and rolling around on the ground, 30 minutes is about 3 12 hours light. Plus I was shy of the torque on the bolts even with some decent leverage.



by:

Everything fit well and installed like it should. Hitch and wiring harness work great. Perfect for me.

Excellent service I have not installed the trailer hitch parts but they look to be of great quality and was shipped to me very quickly and at a good price thanks!

Excellent company to deal with. Easy to order and very helpful as to make sure it would fit to my vehicle. The package arrived a day early which was a nice surprise. Easy to install , heavy duty hitch and works perfectly. Price was very reasonable. Very satisfied.

Perfect fit on my 21 Honda passport. A bit heavy, 2 person installation preferred but I did it alone with a floor jack and a little muscle lol other than that. That shipping was fast, it came in 2 days faster than expected.

This trailer hitch was machined perfectly to fit all 4 bolts with clearance… no ‘file to fit’ effort required. Professionally fabricated and machined. Easy install.

One year later, the trailer hitch continues to meet all expectations.

etrailer is my favorite online store hands down!! Everything I’ve ever ordered has always exceeded expectations!!!



by:

You service was amazing. It’s an easy installation. I definitely recommend this hitch.



by:
2022 Honda Passport

I used ratchet straps and a jack to aid in installing. Difficult to install on your own. Quality and fit are great!



by:

installed very quickly, and has held up well over the course of a year. Towed a good few things with it and had 0 complaints. Thanks again.



by:
2020 Honda Passport

The hitch is very well made, looks good, and fits and installs without any problems. The hitch is also a straight bolt on with the only hard part being holding it in place while starting the bolts which is the hardest part of the installation.



by:

Just had it installed and looks good!

Great...no issues

No issues. Fit my Honda Passport with no issues. Much more cost effective than purchasing from Honda.



by:
2022 Honda Passport

Ordered this hitch for my new 2022 Passport Trailsport on a Saturday night and received it the following Thursday. Packaging was great and there was no damage to the hitch.
Took about 30 minutes to mount it. Highly recommend a second person to thread the first 2 bolts while you hold it in place. After that put some orange loctite on, spun the bolts in with an impact wrench and followed with my 1/2" torque wrench.
The hitch is strong, well built with nice welds and a nice finish. Bolts provided are high quality 10.9 grade with some beefy washers.
Very happy with this purchase and know I can get that last dump load run in before winter.



by:
2024 Honda Passport

The hitch was really easy to install. Honda did a great job of putting the captured nuts into subframe and providing ample room without interferences. It just lifts into place.

  • Hitch for 2021 Honda Passport for Using Rhino Rack T-Load Hitch Load Assist
    Yes, the Rhino Rack T-Load Hitch Load Assist part # RTL002 can be used on a 2021 Honda Passport. You'd just need to have a 2 inch hitch installed on the vehicle as well like with the Curt part # C13421 which is a confirmed fit. I really like this hitch because it has an easier install, has great towing capacities, and is mostly hidden since only hitch opening hangs below rear bumper.

    I have attached a photo of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13421 installed on a 2019 Honda Passport. As you can see, the receiver tube is tucked neatly under the rear bumper but it does not install behind the rear bumper panel nor do any of the aftermarket trailer hitches for a Honda Passport including the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 76290, only the factory trailer hitch which is going to cost you much more.

  • Will the Curt Hitch C13421 Interfere With the Lift Gate Sensor on a 2021 Honda Passport
    Though the Curt # C13421 will definitely fit your 2021 Honda Passport, installing any hitch may interfere with Hands-free Liftgate sensors and functionality may be very limited or possibly lost. However, it is exceptionally rare for the use of the sensor to be completely lost. Typically you will just need to mess with it a little to find the spot where your foot will activate it and you will be good to go. If you check out the install video I included, the sensor is talked about as well.

    Yes, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13421 for your 2019 Honda Passport will sit right below the bumper, as shown in the attached photos. It installs ridiculously easily in two steps: 1. Raise hitch into position and secure with the provided M14 bolts and 9/16" conical washers. NOTE: Weldnut cleaning may be required prior to installation. A nylon tube brush like # 814092 and some spray lubricant is all you need. 2. Torque M14 bolts to specs listed in the included installation instructions. I've...

    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13421 is a fit for a 2019 Honda Passport and will work on models with the hands-free tailgate sensor. That said, the sensor may be limited or restricted in use so in order to fix this you can obtain a relocation bracket from Honda, the Hands-Free Power Tailgate Sensor Relocation Bracket 08L91-TGS-100A.

  • Does Trim of 2019 Honda Passport Get Modified to Install Curt Trailer Hitch

  • Possible Solution for Power Lift Gate Not Working After Hitch Installation on 2019 Honda Passport
    The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76290 is indeed confirmed to fit your 2019 Honda Passport.

    Both the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13421 and Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76290 will have the cross tube that sits behind the removable cover on your 2022 Honda Passport, but the receiver tube itself will still be exposed. This does save you from having to remove the panel and store it when you are needing to use the receiver. While both the receivers are nearly identical I do prefer that the Draw-Tite # 76290 already has the tab welded on for attaching either a 4-Way...

    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13421 requires no drilling or trimming of your fascia to install the receiver. The receiver simply bolts to the frame using the included hardware. I recommend installing the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56291 with the receiver. This harness will connect to your factory wiring and includes the fuses needed to activate the factory tow package. If you prefer to route the 4-way connector out of the rear compartment permanently you can use the...

  • Does Install of Draw Tite Hitch on 2019 Honda Passport Require Fascia/Bumper Modification
    The install of the Draw Tite hitch part # 76290 is as simple as lifting the hitch into place and then using the included bolts to secure it to the vehicle frame. There is no fascia or bumper trimming at all. This also has more than enough capacity as the hitch is rated for up to 6,000 lbs trailer weight. The install is the same as the Curt # C13421 but this hitch has a lower capacity of 5,000 lbs trailer weight so I recommend the Draw Tite. To tow a trailer, you will also need trailer...

    Neither the Curt # C13421 or Draw-Tite # 76290 trailer hitch receivers you were looking at for your 2021 Honda Passport will mount through the bumper like the factory hitch would. These receivers mount just under the bumper and leave just the receiver itself visible once installed. If you are alright with that then I recommend going with the # C13421 as the absolute max possible towing capacity of your Passport based on its options is 5,000lbs which lines up with the 750lb tongue weight...

    Both the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 76290 and Curt Trailer Hitch # C13421 have a gloss black powder coat finish over a protective base coat. The main difference we have found is that the Curt finish is thicker than the Draw-Tite so it does a better job holding up. So if I were to make a recommendation I would choose the Curt # C13421 for your 2021 Honda Passport. If you plan on doing some towing, I recommend also getting the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer...

    We haven't yet had the chance to install either the Draw-Tite # 76290 or the Curt # C13421 on a 2019 Honda Passport, so those measurements aren't available to me, unfortunately. That being said, based on the photos I attached comparing the two, the receiver tube on the Draw-Tite hitch appears to be slightly higher and slightly shorter than the receiver tube on the Curt hitch. So, if you're looking for a hitch with the best ground clearance and that doesn't stick out much past the bumper,...

All you need to do is raise the hitch into place and get the hardware snugged up, then go back over them and torque them to the specs in the instructions and you'll be good to go!

    Yes! The Curt Hitch # C13421 will definitely fit your 2022 Honda Passport Sport model. As far as the correct 4-way harness, you will need the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56291. If you plan on towing a light utility trailer, I also recommend a ball/ball mount like the ones included in the Curt Towing Starter Kit # C45534. Not only does this kit include a locking hitch pin, it also includes a hitch cover as well.
