  • Trailer Hitch Options For a 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe
  • I can definitely point you in the right direction. The # 75776 is for a 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe, but it fits the SE and Limited models only. If your Santa Fe is the Sport model you will want the # 75772 instead. We have installed both of these hitches on a 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe at our shop here in Wentzville Missouri. I have linked our install videos below.

  • What is The Purpose Of The Power Module On The Tow Harness For a 2023 Hyundai Santa Fe?
  • The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # CU94FR which is plug and play for your 2023 Hyundai Santa Fe has a powered converter module and is compatible with your all LED lighting. This powered module serves 2 purposes. First it combines the separate brake light and turn signal wiring into a combined system used on trailers. It also reduces the amount of strain put on the factory wiring by sending power from the vehicle battery to the trailer lights. This is important since the tail...

  • Roof Mounted Canoe Carrier Recommendation for a 2009 Hyundai Santa Fe with Factory Roof Rack
  • We do offer some roof mounted canoe carrier options for your 2009 Hyundai Santa Fe, but they will not increase the carrying capacity of the factory rack on your vehicle. If you have the raised side rails then you can use # RRVA118B-2 and # RRSX100. The same rule would apply if you have the flush mounted factory rails and installed an aftermarket rack like the Rhino-Rack kit including the cross bars # RRVA137B-2, Feet # RRRLKVA, and Custom Fit Kit # DK041. These bars have a capacity of...

  • Carrier is Hitting the Ground When Attached to 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe Trailer Hitch
  • We have a couple of potential options for you that can help, but there isn't a way to strengthen a hitch in regards to its capacity. So the first thing to do is check to ensure you aren't exceeding the tongue weight limit of the hitch that is on your 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe. So just be sure your wife's wheelchair and I assume wheelchair carrier is no more than 350 lbs if your 2007 Santa Fe has the Curt Trailer Hitch # 13538 or 525 lbs if you have the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 75471. When...

  • Difference in Trailer Hitch Receiver Openings for the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe
  • When it comes to a trailer hitch receiver for a 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe, you will have different options, like Class II or Class III, depending on the style of your vehicle. I have attached an article which covers the Class and size differences. For the Sport model, we have a Class III receiver, the Curt, # C13152, which has a 2" hitch opening. For the GLS and Limited, a Class III like the Curt # C13153 is the only option. I personally recommend going with the Class III 2" hitch. Not...

  • Will The Curt 13538 Allow Me To Store A Spare Tire Under A 2009 Hyundai Santa Fe
  • The Curt hitch # 13538 is the correct hitch for a 2009 Hyundai Santa Fe. It should allow for storage of a full size spare tire without any issue. We have installed this hitch here a 2009 Santa Fe and it all fit together fine. That said when we installed, the spare tire was fully inflated but we did not move it. I can see how getting it back into position could be tricky. In this case I am not aware of a work around. My recommendation would be to let as much air out of the tire as you...

  • Can Draw-Tite Class III Hitch 75471 Carry 350 lb Motorcycle on 2009 Hyundai Santa Fe
  • As long as the combined 362 lb weight of the bike and the weight of the carrier you'll use doesn't exceed the 525 lb tongue weight capacity of the Draw-Tite # 75471 Class III hitch and the combined weight of the two doesn't exceed the tongue weight capacity of the vehicle as mentioned in the owner's manual, you should be fine carrying the motorcycle. If you don't already have a carrier in mind, I'd recommend the Ultra-Fab # UF48-979033 which can accommodate tires up to 5 inches wide. The...

  • Can Vehicle Wiring Harness Be Connected to 12V Accessory Outlet for Power on 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe
  • The Curt Vehicle Wiring Harness, # C56184, has a powered converter which isolates all of the power draw to the black power wire. This power wire must be connected directly to the battery in order to safe guard the vehicle's electrical system. When the wiring harness is wired according to the installation instructions, the vehicle's wiring system will not be exposed or put in jeopardy in the event of a short in the trailer's wiring or lighting. If you were to tie into the 12V accessory plug...

  • Does Engine Have To Be Running For Emergency Flashers To Work And Will Trailer Lights Flash
  • If you turn on the emergency flashers in your Santa Fe, the lights on the trailer should also flash. That is assuming everything between the vehicle and your trailer is wired correctly. The engine does not need to be running for the flashers to work. The trailer wiring harness you need on your 2012 Santa Fe depends on whether the vehicle has the factory tow package. If you have the tow package the wiring harness I recommend is part # 118258. If you do not have the tow package I recommend...

  • Can I Use A Demco Bolt-On Coupler With A Tubular Trailer Tongue
  • That is an interesting question. We do caution against bolting the Demco Coupler # DM14793-81 to a round tube. While you might be able to drill holes and tighten the bolts properly, the concern would be that the body of the coupler is not making full contact with the frame. As you said, they are intended for rectangular or right angle stock steel. With a part of the trailer as important as the coupler, it is an area where we would want to take any risks. Your best bet would be to take...

  • The Saris Bones 2 Bike Carrier # SA805BL will not put any additional stress on the glass of your 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe because it's weight is spread out and is not forced down on the glass. The strap attachments are not going to cause any type of issues as they are designed to securely hook on but are rubber and vinyl-coated to keep your Santa Fe completely protected.

  • How to Remove the Floor Mats in 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe
  • Many original equipment floor mats supplied by auto makers have special fixtures in them to help hold them in place on the floor of the vehicle. These often consist of a small hook attached to the permanent carpet layer and a grommet in the removable floor mat that catches on that hook to keep the mat from sliding around under the drivers feet. Sometimes these mats also have small projections, or spikes, on the bottom surface to grip the permanent carpet layer. Some aftermarket floor mats,...

  • Durability of Kenda K371 Bias Trailer Tire, # AM10004, For Extended Highway Travel Under Load
  • The Kenda K371 Bias Trailer Tire, # AM10004, is rated for speeds not exceeding 65 miles per hour. Provided that the tire is not overloaded (one tire is rated at 760 pounds at 90 psi) and it is inflated to the maximum psi rating of 90 pound per square inch, then the tire will last a long time and perform well for you. Trailer tires have thicker sidewalls that allow them to carry a heavier vertical load. If the tire is under inflated, it can cause the sidewall to heat up quicker and more...

  • Is The Curt BallMount # D210 Rated High Enough To Haul 2 E-Bikes And Tow an 1,800lb Trailer
  • Yes, any weight added to the Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount # D210 will need to be considered towards your tongue weight. We typically figure around 10-15% of the trailer's GTW for tongue weight so you'd have roughly 200lbs plus the 150lbs from the bikes/rack for a rough total of 350lbs. The Curt # D210 has a tongue weight capacity of 750lbs so you well within its capacity, but you should still check the capacity of your Santa Fe and the trailer hitch's capacity to ensure you're not overloading...

  • Does Thule Snug Tite Lock Make a Lot of Noise when Driving
  • The lock part of the Snug Tite lock # THSTL2 can move around, this is true, but the likelihood of being able to hear it while in a moving vehicle is slim to none. It just doesn't have enough mass to make enough noise to be noticeable especially in a moving vehicle and even with the windows down. The friction between the vehicle tires and the road creates much more noise than the lock ever could. So no worries!
