etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2"

I needed a hitch for a cargo carrier as well as pulling an ATV. etrailer's website was very helpful and provided the exact information I needed for me to decide on the correct hitch for my 2012 Nissan Quest. My order was shipped the same day and I received it in 3 days (to Los Angeles). I watched the installation videos prior to ordering to see the difficulty level to make sure that I can do it myself. Surprisingly to find that the actual installation was even easier as I was able to do it, without an extra hand, by myself and it took only 50 minutes (I had to use a few blocks of wood and a floor jack to assist with raising the hitch receiver). I cannot be happier with the service and the product! Big 5 star to etrailer, great product and company!2455905

The hitch arrived as scheduled, no package damage and all of its content intact.
Installation was simple, yet due to the weight and size of the hitch, a second hand or in my case, a utv/motorcycle jack was used.
After a year of use, it has performed beautifully. It even saved our vehicle's rear painted bumper from a careless driver behind- no damage for our vehicle, dented his.
etrailer is and has always been our first "go to" vendor for anything automotive accessories and for the "how to" video or instructions 411.3158475

No issues with the hitch design or the hitch itself. I put this after market trailer on my NISSAN QUEST VAN. the hitch fit great. The issue that I have is that the vehicle is WAY TOO LOW to the ground to properly have a trailer. Anything attached to the trailer scrapes on the ground and makes the hitch pretty useless.1609196

I had it put on my Nissan Quest today. It looks great and feels like it's going to get the job done.Shipping wasn't so fast but that's on the delivery people. That said free shipping was awesome. The guys who put it on said " you did good." Meaning I purchased a superior product. First trip with it is this weekend and it looks like it'll do the job. Thanks etrailer!1122005

I orderd a hitch for a 2011 Nissan Quest, but you sent a Hitch who fits Ford Explorer / Licoln Aviator. No way this hitch fit on the Nissan Quest.1520989

Got perfect and went on quickly with just a few hand tools and was even able to install it myself!872711

I got everything on time and it’s working good and also high quality1652763

This hitch is so incompatible for the car it is intended for. I could not enter most driveways that had any slope, gas stations especially, without the hitch dragging on the ground.
Now I am stuck with it. I will try to sell it but....617487

Installed on our 2013 Nissan Quest SV. The challenging parts of this installation are:
(1) Lifting the heavy, awkward bar into place to attach the first bolt - best to have two adults for this. I supported the center of the bar on a cinderblock, lifted one end of the bar into place against the framerail, and had my wife insert a screwdriver through the hole from inside the trunk to hold it in place until I could insert the bolts from underneath.
AND
(2) working around the exhaust pipe on the passenger side. It may be worth unhooking the exhaust hanger; I was eventually able to hold the exhaust pipe far enough to the side to access the bolts from underneath. I also had minor interference on the passenger side with a small bolt that attaches the bumper assembly; had to carefully fit the provided washer past it.

It's also fairly challenging to reinsert the rubber plugs over the holes inside the trunk, particularly where they're partially obstructed on the passenger side.

This is the second etrailer hitch assembly I've installed, and while both were quality products, installation was considerably more difficult on the Quest.67608

Hitch bolted up like it was factory. It took a bit of work to clean the threads out in the frame after 50000 miles of salt and dirt buildup. This hitch has only had light duty use pulling a kayak trailer. It is tucked up tight to the bottom of the bumper, yet it does occasionally drag going in and out of parking lot entries. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a quality 2" hitch for their Quest at a fair price.1016798

I chose this hitch because of the way it is so well made. After reviewing the video of the installation onto the exact vehicle as needed and comparing it to my vehicle I saw it was an exact match. I installed it by myself using a pair of ramps to back the rear wheels up to raise the rear of the vehicle. With the use of a couple 6 x 6 and 3 x 6 wooden blocks to help support the hitch the bolting installation was a perfect match. Well done, Curt at etrailer! The wiring harness is perfect match for the vehicle.458120

Thank you so much!! Great service! They called to make sure that there were no security issues before allowing the purchase. Items arrived MUCH faster than expected! Installed hardware with ease with all supplied new bolts. The electrical package was all pretty much plug and play and easy to install. I wish it came with a mounting bracket for the trailer plug to make it stationary. My only other critique is that the "etrailer.com" sticker is upside down. Great job everyone! Thanks!!

PS. Send me another sticker so I can fix it. Hehe.

Arrived packaged better than the first one I tried from the large online retailer. Well built. Same issues with ONE bolt location. 2016 Nissan Quest. Rear vertical underside bolt does not line up. See pic. So if you own this van plan on needing to get a pro to drill or bend the existing body bolt out of he way to enable the hitch bolt enough room to be threaded in. The washer cannot get past the body bolt to lay flat and even if you omit the washer (not wise) the bolt head cannot get past it. Once you get so far the socket keeps getting pushed off. So I've got to throw myself on the mercy of a shop now to bend that body section away and perhaps re-thread.

Not just a bolt right on job - at least for a Nissan Quest.

Also, beware of possible older hitches out there - there are apparently discontinued hitches out there getting sold on Ama--- as new.

At least go to a legit online retailer such as this.636272

An excellent product that came in a timely manner to a person who ordered incorrectly (me) because I’ve always had trucks before and this is for a VAN. Now said hitch drags the ground on occasion. Still a useful product, note to self: you drive a van now, take care to order appropriate sizes. 488711
