Expert Answers about Chevrolet Cruze


  • Recommendation for Small Trailer to Haul Furniture with 2014 Chevy Cruze
  • A small utility trailer like the K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame # K2MMT5X7 that we offer would be a great choice for you. The trailer weighs around 450 bs, which would leave lots of capacity available for cargo. The trailer is extremely versatile, with removable sides and a folding front and rear tailgate for tons of carrying options. The Curt # C11282 hitch you'd looked at would work perfectly, and for a wiring harness I'd recommend # 118508.

  • Roof Rack and Kayak Carrier Recommendation for 2014 Chevy Cruze
  • For your 2014 Chevy Cruze the Sportrack roof rack part # SR1010 is a confirmed fit but since this is a semi-custom roof rack I have a better option for you to consider. Instead I would recommend the Rhino Rack part numbers # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA and # DK142. Custom fit racks by Rhino Rack will fit MUCH better than the Sportrack racks which are designed to fit as many vehicles as possible yet not have a perfect fit with any. If you went with a J-style of kayak carrier like the part #...

  • Which Trailer Hitch Is Recommended For A 2013 Chevy Cruze
  • The 3 trailer hitches we currently offer are Class-I rated and will fit your 2013 Chevy Cruze. Unfortunately, Class-II trailer hitches are not a fit for your 2013 Chevy Cruze. At the moment, the most popular trailer hitch is the Curt # C11282. It is custom fit for your Cruze and has a maximum gross trailer weight of 2,000 pounds and maximum tongue weight of 200 pounds. I also included a link showing all 3 custom fit trailer hitches too. If you will be doing some light duty towing with...

  • Can Trailer Hitch for a 2001 Ford Windstar Fit a 2011 Chevy Cruze
  • The hitch companies custom design the hitch so it fits a certain year make and model vehicle. In some instances, the same part number hitch will fit numerous model years of the same vehicle, with the hitches for the Honda Odyssey being an example. This being said, a hitch designed for a 2001 Ford Windstar would not fit a 2011 Chevy Cruze. We offer a hitch that's custom designed for the Cruze. If you're needing the hitch as an attachment point for a bike rack, I'd recommend the Draw-Tite...

  • Can Curt Cargo Carrier # C18110 be Carried on 2013 Chevy Cruze
  • If you had a 1-1/4 inch hitch installed on your 2013 Chevy Cruze like the Draw Tite part # 24882 the Curt Cargo carrier part # C18110 would fit and work well. I'd recommend this hitch over the Curt as it does not require the stabilizer strap when carrying a non-supported load like a cargo carrier.

  • Difference Between Curt Hitches that Fit 2015 Chevy Cruze C11282 and C11425
  • There are some subtle differences between Curt trailer hitches # C11282 and # C11425. The receiver is longer on # C11425 so it stick out further and they don't have all the same vehicle fits. Hitch # C11282 fits the 2011 to 2015 Cruze excluding diesels models, 2016 Cruze Limited models, and the 2012 to 2017 Buick Verano excluding turbo and dual exhaust models. Hitch # C11425 fits 2016 Chevrolet Cruze Limited models and 2015 Chevrolet Cruze models except for the diesel models. If it were...

  • Snow Tire Chains That Fit A 2013 Chevy Cruze With 17" Tires
  • I have a solution for you, but the Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains # TC1118 that you are asking about are not a fit for 17" tires. If your 2013 Chevy Cruze has either of the two standard 17" tire sizes, 215/55-17 or 225/50-17, then you can go with the Konig Self-Tensioning, Low-Profile Snow Tire Chains # TH00023100. These chains are very easy to use and install compared to other style chains due to the integrated self-tensioning system. I attached a helpful demonstration video for you to check out.

  • Towing Capacity and Parts Needed to Tow with 2015 Chevy Cruze Diesel
  • The best source for this type of information is going to be your vehicle's owners manual, especially since there is some conflicting information. From what I was able to find, the 2015 Chevy Cruze Diesel has a towing capacity of up to 1000-lbs, which may or may not be enough to tow a small camper. You can find out the dry weight of your camper by checking the spec sticker, which should be located somewhere on the trailer tongue or the body of the camper. I would also recommend consulting...

  • Roof Rack Recommendation for 2019 Chevy Cruze Hatchback
  • I really like the Rhino Rack roof rack part numbers # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK489 that fits your 2019 Chevy Cruze hatchback. It's a higher quality roof rack that's easy to install and use at a much better price than the other racks that are similar in quality. The only thing else I'd recommend is a set of locks for the bars part # RRVA-LEC4 and you'd be set.

  • Will Trailer Hitch Options for 2011 Chevy Cruze Fit ECO Model
  • Both the Draw-Tite # 24882 and Curt # C11282 trailer hitches are confirmed to fit all models of the 2011 Chevrolet Cruze, including your ECO. In fact, we have a customer review that was sent in where they installed the Draw-Tite hitch on their ECO model and it took them about 30 minutes! Out of both options I recommend using the Curt hitch # C11282 for your application. Although you need to use a Support Strap # 18050 for all non-trailer loads, it does not have a weld stop in the hitch...

  • Available Trailer Hitch Receivers and Hardware for 2016 Chevrolet Cruze
  • There are two Class I trailer hitch receivers with a 2,000 pound towing capacity available for your 2016 Chevrolet Cruze. The Draw-Tite Sport Frame # 24943 and the Curt # C11439. If you're looking for a hitch I suggest the Draw-Tite because it does not require the use of a stabilization strap, # 18050, for non-trailer loads like the Curt does. If you only need the hardware to install either hitch the part is # RHK. You will need to put in the part number and manufacturer of the hitch...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel Towing a Seadoo Spark PWC
  • For your 2014 Chevy Cruze diesel I recommend Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24882. This is a Class I hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver. I have linked a video showing an example installation for you. You can also see how much of the hitch is visible in the video. For a ball mount use # 3593. It comes with a pin and clip. For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19257. Or if the trailer requires a 2 inch ball use # 19258. And for trailer wiring you can use # 118508 to add a 4-Way flat connector to the rear...

  • Flat Tow a 2012 Chevy Cruze with Manual Transmission
  • If you have a manual transmission then the vehicle can be flat towed with all four wheels down and for this you would need a tow bar, base plate kit, safety cables, supplemental braking system, wiring harness, and probably a high-low adapter. For the 2012 Chevy Cruze there are a few options depending on trim level. base plates for various models. The base plates # 523168-1 are for non-Eco models. If you have an Eco model with active air shutter system then select the # 523170-1 option. I...

  • Hitch Installation on 2013 Chevrolet Cruze and Use of Hitch-Mount Bike Rack
  • Three hitches are offered for your 2013 Chevrolet Cruze, including the Curt # C11282 that you referenced. All are light-duty 1-1/4-inch Class I types that can carry up to 2 bikes (no matter what the bike rack's capacity is). All will install in an essentially identical manner since they all will use the same mounting points on your Cruze's frame. The link provided will show you all three. Two of these, the Draw-Tite and Hidden Hitch models, are both made by the same company, Cequent Performance...

  • When Carrying 1 Bike On a Bike Rack Where Should it Be Loaded
  • When carrying just a single bike with the Swagman XTC 2 part # S64670 you would want to load it in the position closest to the vehicle. This decreases the leverage the rack has on the bike rack. Also, if you are carrying 2 bikes you would want to load the heaviest bike closest to the vehicle for the same reason.
