Helpful Expert Reply:
I can verify for you that the etrailer trailer hitch receiver for your 2017 Subaru Forester does fit the Forester 2.5I, 2.5I Limited, and 2.5I Premium; the hitch actually fits all models of '17 Forester with the correct part number being the following:
- etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98839
This will give your 2017 Forester a hitch with a 2 inch receiver with a matte black finish that not only looks great but hides any scratches or dings from road debris much better than a hitch with a glossy finish.
If you plan on doing any towing with your '17 Forester you will also need a trailer wiring harness, and the best option that fits your Subaru, due to the fact it has the highest amp rating to protect against potential shorts, is the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56040.
