Rugged, Matte Black Finish

The sturdy steel construction is protected with a matte black finish for added durability. This unique powder coating gives etrailer hitches a carbide-like appearance and a rugged look that sets them apart from traditional glossy hitches. In addition to being rust and corrosion resistant, the tough matte coating hides dirt, scuffs, and dings better than a glossy finish.

Item came bent and couldn't be mounted as delivered. eTrailer said it was "normal flex" and wouldn't admit that there was something wrong in either their production or shipping process. Photos show left and right sides compared to a square placed on the main cross-tube. I took a sledge hammer to it and it straightened enough to mount it, but shouldn't have had to. I'll save money and go elsewhere next time.

Heavy duty! Well engineered. Avoided any conflicts with the muffler, exhaust pipe and spare tire. Took about an hour because I didn't read the instructions until it was on.



by:

Another home run with a etrailer hitch install. Bolted right up like you would hope.



by:
2011 Volvo XC90

Solid and high quality. Easy to install with provided bolts, but had to cut a little bit of the plastic bumper to make it fit.



by:
2007 Volvo XC90

Product is great shipping was horrible. My receiver was hanging out of the box on arrival. It was scratched but not affecting function.



by:

Instructions in the box said (and showed) to "sandwich" the muffler mount between the driver's side frame rail and the hitch... which would result in an uneven and unstable hitch mount (with hitch bolted directly to frame rail on the passenger side).
Instructions available online correctly said and showed to bolt hitch directly to rail on both sides.



by:

Products fit perfect. Good instructions. No problems.
Good price as well. Shipped on time...

Ordering from etrailer.com was fast and easy. Received my hitch receiver in a couple of days. Installation was easy and instructions were straight forward. Took about an hour but would have been faster if I didn't mess around with trying to put the factory tie down back in place. I then decided to leave it off as it's not needed anyway with the hitch receiver installed. Fascia trimming was easy, I used oscillating multi tool. I did not remove the rubber exhaust hanger, i just unbolted the mount and rotated it out the way. Its a sturdy quality receiver.



by:

Receiver hitch was delivered very quickly. I’m very happy with my purchase.



by:

The hitch fit my 2011 XC90 perfectly. Instruction say to remove and replace the rubber muffler mount, but you don't have to fully remove it, just take the bolts out and rotate the whole mount straight down to the ground on its rubber. Then put up the hitch, and rotate the mount back up and put the bolts in. It was EASY! Also cutting out the XC90's plastic valance was no problem. You just draw a rectangle with a Sharpie. I used a sawzall, but a hacksaw or even tinsnips could do a good job. Cutout is about 2 inches by 5 inches and it's below the car, the cut area is not visible at all. I included a pic.

The Curt hitch I bought from etrailer was a great price, shipped fast and I installed it in about 15 minutes. Great shopping experience.



by:

I haven't been able to find a email related to the receiver hitch that I purchased from you and that is the item that I was considering writing the reviews for. When I received the box I didn't notice any damage but when I went to install it. It was bent and would not install.



by:

Always great products, clear ordering, and timely delivery. I'm a returning customer for years.



by:

my customers are very please with my choice to use e trailer for all their RV/trailer and accessory needs in the future.



by:

Have not installed the receiver hitch. It does not work with my vehicle even though it says it is the correct hitch for a 2005 Volvo XC90. It hits the exhaust. I am not an amateur at installing hitches. I've bought from you before and not had any problems.



by:

All parts arrived the next day. Everything fit per installation instructions. Wish everything I order online worked as well. Thanks again for carrying products made in USA.

Ordered the Curt hitch and T-tap wiring harness for the 2005 Volvo xc90. Everything shipped quickly and came packaged together. I appreciated the emails telling me when teh package shipped and tracking information. The hitch went in smoothly and without and problems. All hardware was included and the holes lined up perfectly. The wiring harness could not have been easier. simply unplug the existing light connections and snap the new harness inline. A cordless drill is a must to secure the ground screw, even though it is self tapping. The kit included everything I needed, including wire zip ties.
I would recommend etrailer.com to anyone looking for a hitch related product; good product and great online videos to walk you through an install.

This hitch was perfect on my 2013 Volvo XC90 - we loved it and used it a lot! The guys at our local gas station and service garage installed it easily. We just sold our car, and unfortunately the hitch would not fit on our new car - this was the hardest thing to give up!

Hitch fit as it should. Good price. Decent turn around after ordering.

  • Trailer Hitch For A 2013 Volvo XC90 To Use With The Thule Apex Swing XT 4 Bike Rack
    Yes we do! The etrailer Class 3 Hitch # e45KR is confirmed to fit the 2013 Volvo XC90. This hitch has a 2" receiver, which will be compatible with the Thule Apex Swing XT # TH9027XT.

  • Can the Thule Passage 3 Bike Carrier Be Used on a 2009 Volvo XC90 and Carry a Girls Bike
    Thule indicates that you can use the Thule Passage 3 Bike Carrier, # TH911XT, on your 2009 Volvo XC90 to carry 3 bikes, and you will also need a bike adapter bar, # TH982XT, for each bike that does not have a top cross bar that will keep the bike level, or close to level, when carrying them on the rack. We have a video review of the bike adapter bar in use for you to review. I would recommend using a trailer hitch and hitch mounted bike rack on this vehicle though. The reason is that...

  • Does Trailer Hitch and Wiring Communicate With the Engine and Transmission on Volvo XC 90
    Your Volvo XC90 will require the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4 Pole Trailer Connector, item # 118411. This wiring harness will protect your vehicle's sensitive wiring and computers from electrical shorts and mis-wired trailers. There is no wiring harness for trailer towing that communicates with the vehicle engine or transmission. The trailer wiring cannot communicate trailer weight or any other information to the vehicle. Your vehicle powertrain control module (PCM computer) senses...

  • Bike Rack Options To Carry 4 Bicycles On My 2005 Volvo XC90
    The most amount of bikes you can carry with a trunk mounted bike rack on your 2005 Volvo XC90 is 3, as this is as much as your vehicle can handle safely. You would have to carry the other bike on the roof of your vehicle if you choose to use a trunk mounted bike rack. The item you selected, Thule Passage 3 Bike Carrier, part # TH911XT, is compatible with your vehicle and would be a good option as it features anti-sway cradles. Another 3 bike trunk mounted bike rack I would recommend is...

  • Is Curt or etrailer Hitch Easier to Install on a 2008 Volvo XC90
    When it comes to the installation, both the Curt # 13559 and etrailer # e45KR hitches for your 2008 Volvo XC90 are the exact same. I recommend going with the etrailer because it has a matte black finish that helps it blend in with black trim on your vehicle and also helps to hide any scratches that might occur from road debris. To complete your towing setup you also need the T-One Wiring # 118411 to operate the lights on the trailer (use mounting brackets # 18144 and # C57202 to secure...
