Expert Answers about Hyundai Sonata
- Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2011 Hyundai Sonata for 2 Inch Bike Rack Compatibility
- For your 2011 Hyundai Sonata Limited, there isn't a direct 2 inch receiver available. I recommend using the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11025 which will work with a wide variety of 2 bike racks. If you want to use your specific rack, then you will need the Hitch Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # HTAD confirmed to fit a Class I hitch. This will reduce your capacity to 100 lbs, so remember to subtract the weight of your bike rack along with...

- To provide an attachment point for a tow bar, base plates like the Blue Ox # BX2330 would need to be installed on the vehicle.
In order to use the Tow Ready # 63180 you referenced, you would also need an adapter, part # BX8833. However, that particular tow bar is only rated for 45 mph, so I would consider using a different tow bar like the Blue Ox Acclaim, part # BX4330. The Acclaim would require no adapters, includes the necessary safety cables, and would allow you to travel at normal...

- There is a trailer hitch available for your 2017 Hyundai Ioniq as long it is not the Electric model, but the trailer hitch for a Hyundai Sonata will not fit due to differences in the vehicle attachment points. If you have an electric model there is not a trailer hitch receiver currently available, so you will need to use a different vehicle to transport your e-Bike.
You will need the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11486 which has a 200lb tongue weight rating so it will be able to carry...

- The Draw Tite Hitch part # DT74MR that you referenced is a fit for your 2021 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid Limited. With just this hitch you'd have everything needed to install a bike rack like our very popular Hollywood Racks Trail Rider # HR200Z that fits this hitch.

- Between the Thule Passage part # TH910XT and the Thule Gateway Pro part # TH88VR I would strongly recommend the # TH88VR for your 2011 Hyundai Sonata. This rack has adjustable arms which will allow them to be adjusted level so that your bikes can be carried much easier on the rack. Aside from that both racks are very similar.

- I checked with Sportrack and the correct roof rack between the two that you referenced for your 2004 Hyundai Sonata is the part # SR1002.
view full answer... - Recommended Hitch & Bike Rack For The Hyundai Sonata
- The hitch options for the Sonata are pretty visible but the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11402 is our most hidden hitch. The distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the outermost part of the rear bumper is 3 3/4" and the distance from the top inside edge of the receiver tube opening to the ground is 11 1/2".
There is no drilling required for installation, the access holes may need to be enlarged by drilling, filing, or rotary tool. The exhaust must be temporarily lowered for...
view full answer... - Can 2016 Hyundai Sonata be Towed Behind Motorhome
- I did some research on your 2016 Hyundai Sonata and the only way it can be towed behind an motorhome is with a tow dolly like the Roadmaster # RM-2050-1 so there isn't a base plate kit made for the vehicle.
The advantage to a tow dolly is it's about the same price as a flat towing setup, takes much less install time, and easily transferred to future vehicles as well.

- The best bike rack is the one that's best for you. A lot of which is determined by how many and what kind of bikes you're going to be carrying. As well as how often you're going to be hauling the bikes.
Overall, in my opinion, a hitch mount bike rack is the best way to go; however if you need to carry more than two bikes it isn't going to work for you because the only hitches that are designed for your 2018 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid are Class I receivers which are only able to carry up to...
view full answer... - What 2-Bike Hitch Rack do You Recommend for My 2 E-Bikes on My 2015 Hyundai Sonata?
- For a great 2-bike electric bike rack for your 2015 Hyundai Sonata, I recommend the Saris Freedom Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # SA4412B or the fat-bike version # SA4412B-FB. The great thing is that the Freedom comes with a high 60-pound per-bike weight capacity and accommodates bikes with wheelbases up to 48 inches long. Another great benefit of the Freedom is that the bike clamps adjust anywhere along the central mast. This eliminates the need of a bike...
view full answer... - Comparing Draw Tite and Curt Trailer Hitches for 2021 Hyundai Sonata
- For your 2021 Hyundai Sonata the Draw Tite hitch part # DT74MR and the Curt part # C23HR are both pretty similar. They basically share the same overall design but I will say we have the best luck with the Curt hitches as far as fit and finish. Nothing against Draw Tite but in general we find that the Curt hitches just fit up and match the mounting holes on the tow vehicle the easiest so if I was me buying a hitch I would go with the Curt.

view full answer... - How to Carry 3 Bikes on a 2012 Hyundai Sonata
- No. Class I trailer hitches are only rated for 2 bikes maximum. The issue isn't the weight but the distance the weight is from the receiver. A third or more bikes would put too much weight too far from a Class I hitch receiver and can damage it and/or the vehicle.
Another option is a trunk mount bike rack such as the Thule Passage # TH911XT. This rack will hold 3 bikes and you will not need a trailer hitch.
If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes...
view full answer... - Is the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System a Good Choice for a Motorcycle Trailer
- The Timbren suspension system, like # A20RS440, is designed to be toe-in when there is no load on it. So when the load is placed on it it will push the tire out so that it is riding straight on the ground. Provided the trailer is not overloaded and the tires are trailer tires and inflated to the maximum psi as indicated on the tire, then you should not see excessive wear and get more than just a few thousand miles out of a set.
A regular axle has a bow in it. That bow should be pointed...
view full answer... - Trailer Wiring Recommendation for a 2011 Hyundai Sonata
- Since your 2011 Hyundai Sonata is a non-hybrid model you would want the part # C56049.
The # C56049 does not require running a wire up to the vehicle battery so it would be exactly what you want.
Some vehicles have pretty delicate taillight wiring circuits so it is necessary to power the trailer taillights from the battery to protect them.

- Yes, the # HTAD 1-1/4 inch to 2 inch adapter can be used with the Curt Hitch part # C11025 you referenced.
The # F-4 is correct pin to use though.
view full answer... - Recommended Trunk-Mount 2-Bike Carrier for 2014 Hyundai Sonata
- On the page I linked for you we show all confirmed trunk-mount bike rack fits for your 2014 Hyundai Sonata. These confirmed fits include specific Saris racks as well as products from Thule, Yakima and other prominent brands. Since I see that you were looking primarily at 2-bike carriers we'll focus on those.
I reviewed photos of your 2014 Hyundai Sonata and indeed the bumper cover's smooth design leaves not a lot of room for the base of a trunk-mount rack. For this reason I suggest a Thule...
view full answer... - Recommended Bike Carrier Options for 2015 Hyundai Sonata
- The design of your 2015 Hyundai Sonata does not lend itself to trunk-mount type bike racks. In fact both Thule and Yakima do not recommend any of their trunk racks for your Sonata. So, your best option is to install a Class I hitch and use a hitch-mount bike rack. However, note that a Class I hitch can handle the weight of only 2 bikes.
The hitch I recommend for your Sonata is the Draw-Tite # 24965 because it installs without drilling and includes all the required hardware to bolt it on.

view full answer... - What Ball Mount to Use with Curt Hitch C11402
- With Class I hitches like the # C11402 you have to use the recommended ball mount from Curt which is the part # C45521. Using a different ball mount would potentially damage the hitch since the length would be different and the leverage might cause damage.

- We can help you select tire chains for your 2016 Hyundai Sonata hybrid fitted with 215/55-17 size tires.
I was unable to access an online edition of the owner's manual for your 2016 Hyundai Sonata hybrid for any guidance related to tire chain use so you'll want to check yours. Some cars can use chains only on front or rear tires, and some can use them only on specific tire sizes. Many passenger cars need to use special low-profile Class S type chains, like the Glacier Cable Snow Tire Chains...
