2022 Mazda CX-30

The trailer hitch receiver arrived much sooner than anticipated and I had my mechanic install it on my new 2022 CX-30 Turbo Premium. Once mounted it felt very solid and technically fit perfectly. Unfortunately there was very little clearance between the angle piece on the left side of the hitch receiver and my muffler bracket (driver side of the mounted hitch receiver). This caused my muffler bracket to rattle against this hitch on the bumpy New England roads where I live, even at times when the car was just sitting in park and idling.

My last car (a 2014 VW GTI) had a Curt trailer hitch receiver and I had many good years of service from that part. It even included a rubber hitch receiver cover that was not included with this part for my 2022 CX-30.

I'm sure once my mechanic can grind away some of the hitch bracket to open up clearance between my muffler bracket and the hitch I will be rattle-free, but it is a little disappointing that out of the box this part does not have enough clearance to prevent muffler bracket rattle when idling or riding on bumpy New England roads.

You mentioned that you were experiencing rattling with the exhaust rubbing against the hitch. This happens from time to time and we have a great FAQ on how to eliminate the rattle which you can see in the link below.

Peter

6/27/2022

Thank you for pointing me to your FAQ on how to address exhaust rattles. I will ask my mechanic to try longer rubber isolators as that would be a better solution than grinding away material. If I can correct my rattle through solutions identified in your FAQ I will update my rating on your website if that is possible.

after purchasing some muffler hanger extensions and having them installed, my Curt trailer hitch has not had any more problems with clanging or rattling. Ive been extremely happy with the trailer hitch over the last year.



by:
2023 Mazda CX-30

Both mounting arms were really bent. Thankfully, I managed to straighten them to be able to mount the hitch.



by:
2024 Mazda CX-30

Delivery was quick. Article was of excellent quality. Installation was reasonably smooth. Only issue was I had to trim a small section of the air dam under the rear bumper for the hitch to fit into the proper position (see photo).



by:

went on easy as guided through the instructions. it's a year later from original install and all is well.



by:

This product is great. Bought it for my bike rack and it fits the car and bike rack perfectly. Can't wait to drive with my bike to the bike trails in the state

I made the mistake of trying to save a day and a few bucks by ordering a receiver hitch from Amazon. It arrived damaged, even though the box appeared fine. I've then ordered the same hitch from etrailer, which arrived on the estimated date and in perfect condition! Customer service promptly answered my call, and the instructional video was detailed and model specific, making installation go smoothly. Will definitely shop here again!



by:
2023 Mazda CX-30

I highly recommend removing the muffler. Doing so will give you the room and access to enlarge the holes and install the hitch.
Installed on 2023 Mazda CX-30.

excellent product but requires installation and installer would not "drill out or expand existing hole in frame, so he had to take off bumper of MAzda cx30 to install. cost of installation 250, rather than 125.

Works great. I had it installed at U-Haul and its a perfect fit. I only use it for my bike rack and have found it simple to use



by:

The installation video sold me on this hitch. When I saw how easy it was to install and how well it was designed I had to have one. Thanks for making this project so simple



by:

It was easy to install. It took me almost 2 hrs just because I do things slowly with safety.
Clearance with muffler is good I drove about 300 miles and no issues

Excellent addition to my 2020 Mazda CX-30. I use it for a bike rack. The installation instructions were clear, concise and easy to follow. The installation itself went off without a hitch. Thanks for a great product.

Trailer hitch is awesome ! Mix up at the UPS last week, you all addressed the problem and I have my hitch. Looks great under the Mazda, be able to haul the kayaks around for end of season fishing. Thank you very much.



by:
2021 Mazda CX-30

Overall great, however modifications to trim are necessary if you have a CX-30 Turbo. A vertical piece of trim going along the bottom of the bumper (presumably to block the view of the larger muffler) will need to be trimmed to fit the receiver up into.



by:

Just what I need it was simple and easy instructions are easy to understand took 1 hr. to install and 2 hrs for the electrical harness item#C86CR this kit comes with everything you need very satisfied with the outcome my Mazda CX30 is ready for a road trip! Thank you etrailer!

WELL IT WASN'T A TRUE FIT LIKE THE VIDEO SUGGESTED HAD TO CUT SOME OF THE

LH MUFFER BRACKET WOULD HIT THE HITCH MAKING A VERY LOUD NOISE
WASN'T VERY HAPPY

This is a fit for your vehicle and something that would fix the rattling is to slightly bend the muffler brackets so it relocates the muffler up or down creating more space between it and the hitch. I attached a link to our article that explains how to do it in more detail.



by:

good product! It arrived even earlier than expected. I just had it installed this week.



by:

Perfect fit on my Mazda cx30. No modifications were needed. Install was about one hour and thirty minutes.



by:
2024 Mazda CX-30

It arrived in 2 days in perfect condition will install it this weekend and update looks like a quality part



by:
2023 Mazda CX-30

As others have stated: the hardest part of the install was enlarging the two access holes, the fish wires in the hardware kit make getting everything lined up a breeze. Taking five minutes to get the muffler out of the way is more than worth it... doesn't get much better than this! Very stout, nicely finished piece of equipment that was delivered in the time frame promised and all for the best price around. BTW no interference with hanger brackets whatsoever and did not to raise the car to do the install either



by:

Hitch was in perfect condition when it arrived in just 2 days, excellent ?? interaction with salesperson.
She knew her business.

I installed myself, and removing muffler made the job a lot easier. It did take 3-4 hours to install. Making access hole bigger took the most time.

Not everyone has a die grinder handy, however hitch fit perfectly. Adequate clearance with muffler ( no rubbing or noise)
Very happy with the look of the hitch ( doesn't stick out )



by:

Still working great after one year. No problems at all. Very satisfied.



by:
Mazda

Good quality hitch for a Mazda CX30. Was not hard to install, although I had a Mazda dealer do it. I paid an hour labor. The paint on the hitch is holding up well after one year.

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver and 4-Way Vehicle Wiring Harness For a 2024 Mazda CX-30
    Yes, we have the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C49CR which is custom fit for your 2024 Mazda CX-30. This will give you a 1-1/4" receiver for your ball mount and hitch mounted accessories. I recommend installing the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C86CR when you install the receiver. This will give you a 4-way flat connector which is the most common connector used on small trailers. It will also allow you to use Auxiliary Lights # C53201 should your hitch mounted accessory impair...

  • Bike Rack for 2021 Mazda CX-30 with Curt 1-1/4 inch Hitch Installed
    For your 2021 Mazda CX-30 that has the Curt hitch # C49CR installed I really like the Swagman XTC2 part # S64670 for a really solid bike rack that is also a great value. This would not require the use of a stabilizer strap either.

  • Adapter Required To Carry a Kuat Bike Rack with 2 Hitch On a 2023 Mazda CX-30 With 1-1/4 Receiver
    You may not be able to use an Adapter # e43YR with your Kuat bike rack and the Curt trailer Hitch Receiver # C49CR on your 2023 Mazda CX-30. Since the receiver is rated for 200lbs of tongue weight and the use of an adapter lowers the receiver capacity by 50%. So with the receiver only being able to then support 100lbs, the Adapter # e43YR weighing 6lbs and the Kuat Bike Rack # BA22B weighing 52lbs it leaves you with only 42lbs for your bikes.

    It looks like the Kuat 4 Bike Racks : # KU77FR, # NV22B-NA22B, # KU58ZR, & # KU45VR you're referring to, all require a 2" hitch and unfortunately only a class I 1 1/4" hitch is offered for your Mazda. If you're needing a hitch, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C49CR will work great, but you're not going to be able to use your 4 bike rack.

  • Trailer Hitch And Bike Rack Options For A 2024 Mazda CX-30
    Hello Lynn thanks for your question. I will start by telling you that unfortunately, it is really not going to be possible to carry a Kuat 4 bike platform rack on a 2024 Mazda CX30. Since it is a smaller car, the only hitch available uses a 1-1/4" receiver. The Kuat 4 bike racks will only work with the larger 2" receiver, like what you have on the 2013 Lexus RX350.
