I recommend going with the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e55AR for your 2014 Cadillac SRX because it's the only option that has a matte black finish that blends in with any black trim on your Cadillac and hides scratches from road debris really well. The other hitches have a glossy black finish which is standard, but stands out a little more and it's easier to see scratches on that style.
If you don't already have a bike rack then I recommend the Kuat Transfer V2 # KU84FR because of... view full answer...
For your 2013 Cadillac SRX, you will need a brake controller and wiring for a pop-up camper with electric brakes. For this, I recommend the Tekonsha Primus Trailer Brake Controller - 1 to 4 Axles - Proportional # TK90160. This when connected will apply the brakes to your trailer at the same time and with the same intensity as you hit the brake pedal in your SRX. This controller has the manual override lever that allows you to apply just the trailer brakes and has an easy to read LED... view full answer...
The Hollywood Racks Trike Rack part # HR1000Z-R-TRKADP that you referenced would be your best option for carrying your Catrike 700 recumbent. You would need to have a 2 inch hitch installed on your vehicle as well. For that you would need the part # 75682 which I attached an install video for. view full answer...
The TST TPMS for RVs # TST-507-FT-4 would certainly do a good job monitoring the tires on your 2014 Cadillax SRX. This system comes with a grayscale monitor, updates every 12 seconds, and has a 3-year warranty. However, I prefer the TireMinder A1AS TPMS for RVs and Trailers w Signal Booster # TM76FR. This system has a faster refresh rate updating every 6 seconds, an LCD color monitor, and a 3-year warranty like the TST. It also gives you the option to monitor on your smartphone via Bluetooth. view full answer...
The Blue Ox Base plate kit part # BX1690 that you referenced does fit both the models of the 2013 Cadillac SRX that have the adaptive cruise control or without it so it would work well for you.
For a compatible tow bar and safety cables, one of the most popular options is the Avail, # BX7420. This tow bar has a 10,000 pound capacity which would be more than enough for your SRX.
For lighting, there are several options. However, I know that the SRX does have LED tail lights and the wiring... view full answer...
Per the dinghy towing instructions in the owner's manual for your 2010 SRX, three fuses need to removed and then re-installed in a later step. The fuses are BCM 1, BCM 2, and BCM 3.
This information can be found starting on page 9-106. There are other restrictions in the manual based on the transmission and engine size. I recommend checking the manual or with your dealership to make sure you have your SRX prepped for towing.
There are five items you need when flat-towing a vehicle. You... view full answer...
According to our fit guide, the Thule Ascent 1700, # TH605, is not a direct fit to a 2011 Cadillac SRX with a factory roof rack. In order for it to fit, according to Thule, you would need to first install Thule Evo raised rail feet, # TH710401, and Thule SquareBars, # TH712400, to provide the proper crossbar spacing to mount the Ascent.
Another option would be to go with a different box. Yakima has several boxes that they have indicated are a direct fit. Take a look at the Yakima SkyBox... view full answer...
Yes, you can tow a trailer with your 2007 Cadillac SRX so long as it is under 2,000 lbs. If you have the V92 Trailer Tow Package then your towing capacity is 4,250 lbs however this package usually consists of a trailer hitch, wiring harness, and transmission/oil coolers therefore it does not sound like this is what you have.
In order to tow a trailer with your 2007 Cadillac SRX you will need a trailer hitch, wiring harness, and ball mount/hitch ball. These are the necessities but I l... view full answer...
When we installed the Roadmaster base plate kit part # RM-523162-4 on an SRX like your 2015 model we did not find that it was crushing the bumper as the bolt was torqued. I would make sure you are using a torque wrench that is calibrated. view full answer...
I was able to find that your 2013 Cadillac SRX has a towing capacity of 2,500 lbs. The trailer wiring harness part # 118259 that you referenced is also the correct fit for your vehicle as well.
For a hitch that would give you your full towing capacity we then have the Draw Tite part # 75682 as a fit. I attached an install video for this hitch for you to check out as well.

We do sell replacement hardware kits for the trailer hitches we offer like the Curt # C13050 which is a fit for your 2008 Cadillac SRX Sport model. For that you would want the part # RHK. On the product page you would need to enter the part number C13050 and select Curt as the hitch manufacturer.
I would strongly recommend you use the hitch part number that you have and not just the Curt number if you have something different.
The size bolts that come with it are M12-1.75 x 40mm. view full answer...
The factory hitch on your 2004 Cadillac SRX would have been a Class III with a 2 inch receiver. If you don't already have a trailer connector, you can install one using part # C59236.
In order to determine which ball mount you need, you'll need to measure the height of your trailer coupler with the trailer jacked up so it's level and the height of the receiver. The difference between these two measurements is the rise/drop of the ball mount you'll need. I'll link you to an help article... view full answer...
There are trunk mount bike racks listed as a fit for the 2013 Cadillac SRX, see link. However, there is one thing that you will need to look at first. If the vehicle has the plastic trim piece (spoiler) at the top that would interfere with the hooks or cables then you cannot use a trunk mount bike rack. That spoiler is not rated to support the weight of a rack.
If you determine you can use a trunk mount bike rack then I recommend going with the Thule OutWay, # TH56BV. I actually own this... view full answer...
We had the chance to install the SMI Air Force One supplemental braking system part # SM99243 on a 2016 Cadillac SRX and we had filmed the install. I attached a link to this page that shows the install for you to check out. This is designed to be used on motorhomes with air brakes and can also be used on air-over-hydraulic brakes with an additional 1/4" DOT air line (not included). view full answer...
If you used the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-4 with your tow bar setup and motorcycle carrier it would take a really sharp turn to potentially cause interference since tow bars are pretty long. I don't think you'd have an issue at all but the first few tight turns you make you might have a spotter make sure the clearance is okay. view full answer...
I personally have not heard of any bike security issues with the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes part # TH903202. I do however want to note that the maximum bike tube the clamps on the rack will work with is 3-1/8" but so long so long as you are within range there should be no concerns. The clamps will click when they are tight so there is no guesswork.
The hitch tightening mechanism is not a new design either, it's used on several other of their racks and makes it very... view full answer...
The trailer hitch I recommend for a 2016 Cadillac SRX is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C12070 for 1-1/4" or part # C13002 for 2". These are both excellent assembled in USA options which offer a bolt-on fit. I actually recommend going with the larger 2" option due to the amount of accessories compatible with this but either will work well. If needed, you can use a reducer such as the Hitch Reducer 2" to 1-1/4" Trailer Hitch Receiver part # HT02. view full answer...
The tire chains I recommend for a 2016 Cadillac SRX with 235/65-18 tires are the Konig Premium Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains part # TH2004565767 because they are one of the easiest to install options we have available and should only take a few minutes per side. The Konig Premium Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains has a diamond shaped pattern for superior traction and they won't come into contact with the face of the wheel so you don't have to worry about ruining the finish.

In order to determine if you can use Tow Ready Wiring Harness, # 118259, or Curt Wiring Harness, # 56096, you will need to check to see if your 2011 Cadillac SRX has the connection point. The connection point is located beneath the rear of the vehicle behind the bumper. I have included a link to the installation instructions that show what you will be looking for. If you find that connector on your SRX, you can use either harness, though the Tow Ready harness is longer.
