Expert Answers about Honda Passport


  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2019 Honda Passport Hitch with Best Ground/Bumper Clearance
  • We haven't yet had the chance to install either the Draw-Tite # 76290 or the Curt # C13421 on a 2019 Honda Passport, so those measurements aren't available to me, unfortunately. That being said, based on the photos I attached comparing the two, the receiver tube on the Draw-Tite hitch appears to be slightly higher and slightly shorter than the receiver tube on the Curt hitch. So, if you're looking for a hitch with the best ground clearance and that doesn't stick out much past the bumper,...

  • Which is Best Roof Rack Recommended for 2022 Honda Passport With Roof Rails
  • The crossbar kit I'd recommend will depend on how often you'll use them, and whether or not you'll leave them in place on the roof for long periods of time when they're not being used. If you won't use them frequently and won't leave them on the roof for months on end, the inexpensive Malone AirFlow 2 crossbar kit, part # MPG216 is what I'd recommend. The AirFlow 2 is an excellent product for its price, but in my opinion, it won't stand up to years of hard use. If the crossbars will see...

  • Trailer Hitch Solution for 2019 Honda Passport with OEM Hitch to Carry Thule Bike Rack
  • Best solution is to replace the hitch you have on your 2019 Honda Passport that has the shallow hitch pin with the Draw Tite part # 76290 which is a confirmed fit and will let you use any bike rack you want like the Thule Apex Swing part # TH9027XT you referenced. This is going to allow to use the best bike rack for your application instead of being limited to the select few which are compatible with the shallow hitch pin and also will alleviate any other similar problems in the future...

  • Sway Control for 2021 Honda Passport with Draw Tite Hitch
  • Since the hitches that fit your 2021 Honda Passport are not rated for weight distribution use like the Draw Tite part # 76290 there isn't a system we can recommend to use with your vehicle as it may damage the vehicle frame due to the different stress these systems put on the vehicles. You can use a friction sway control unit like the part # 83660 though to help prevent sway from passing vehicles and high winds. The best way to fight sway though is with proper trailer loading. Getting...

  • Tow Mirror Recommendation for 2020 Honda Passport
  • For your 2020 Honda Passport, you will need to use a universal fit towing mirror because there are no custom fit mirrors available for your vehicle. The K-Source Mirrors part # KS3990 would be a really great option as they fit well on mirrors like what you have, are stable, and have two mirrors on each housing for increased visibility.

  • Parts Needed to Install 4-Way or 5-Way on 2021 Honda Passport
  • For your 2021 Honda Passport the standard 4-way trailer wiring harness you'd want is the Curt T-Connector part # C56291 which installs very easily and has the most reliable converter box. If you needed to convert this to a 5-way then you'd need the part # C57187. I wasn't sure if that's what you meant so I figured I would add that info. There isn't a 5-way wiring kit for your vehicle (or any vehicle since it's pretty rare) which is why you have to first install a 4-way and then convert...

  • Does Curt or Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch for 2020 Honda Passport Install through Bumper Like OEM Model
  • Both the Draw-Tite # 76290 and the Curt # C13421 Class III trailer hitches for your 2020 Honda Passport feature a hidden-crosstube design that keeps the main support hidden behind the bumper and leaves just the 2" receiver visible beneath it (see attached image). This is a bit different than the OEM version that actually protrudes through the bumper but it does still offer a really sleek appearance at a fraction of the cost. Between these two options I recommend the Draw-Tite # 76290...

  • 7-Way Trailer Wiring Harness and Brake Controller Recommendation for 2021 Honda Passport
  • A taillight converter combines 3 circuits, left turn signal, right turn signal and brake lamps into two circuits. Once installed, you'll have two circuits; left turn combined with brake lamp and right turn combined with brake lamp. This is necessary because the trailer uses a 2 wire system instead of the 3 wire system used on the tow vehicle. I'd recommend the Tekonsha # 118291. The Passport is prewired for a brake controller so installation will be a plug and play proposition. For a fairly...

  • Could 2021 Honda Passport Tow a Sol Horizon Rover
  • At most the Sol Horizon Rover could weigh 4,000 lbs whereas I looked up the towing capacity of your 2021 Honda Passport and found that it could be rated between 3,500 and 5,000 lbs so depending on how your vehicle is equipped it could work. You'd need a higher rated hitch like the Draw Tite part # 76290 which is mostly hidden and has more capacity than needed.

  • Can Trailer Hitch for 2020 Honda Passport Be Used with Weight Distribution System
  • The trailer hitches available for your 2020 Honda Passport are not rated for use with a weight distribution system. This likely has more to do with the vehicle than the hitch itself, as typically when a system isn't recommended it's because the vehicle frame just isn't built to handle the type of stress/torque that weight distribution puts on it. Between the hitch options available, I do recommend the Draw-Tite # 76290 because it offers higher weight capacities than the alternative and...

  • Recommended Brake Controller For A 2022 Honda Passport LE
  • For your 2022 Honda Passport LE, I recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195. This is a great all around controller. Large accessible buttons and an LCD display make this very easy to use, even for first time towers. This will also be very easy to install. Provided your vehicle does have the factory tow package, you can use the plug and play pigtail # 3070-P. Just mount the controller and plug in. It really is that easy. I have linked our install and review videos below if you want to...

  • Best Low Clearance Snow Chains for 2020 Honda Passport Tire Size 245/50-20
  • For your tire size of 245/50-20 that you have on your 2020 Honda Passport the best low clearance tire chains we offer are the Konig K-Summit Size K66 part # TH02230K66 which provide the best possible clearance since they do not drape over the inside of the tire's sidewall at all. They also install easily and provide great traction as well. Check out the install video I attached for more info on this as well.

  • Recommended RV Observation Camera Setup With Maximum Wireless Range
  • I'd recommend the Furrion Vision S system, part # FOS43TASF which has a 150 meter wireless range. You'll only get that kind of extreme range if there's no obstructions between the monitor and the camera, but on a typical RV type installation this should work perfectly for you. The RV manufacturers think highly enough of this system that many of them offer it as OEM equipment. The system also has night vision capability which is a very nice feature. I've linked to a product demonstration...

  • What Is The Easiest Brake Controller And Wiring Install For My 2021 Honda Passport?
  • If you were hoping for easy installs on your 2021 Honda Pilot, you are definitely in luck! To start with, the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118291 is a plug and play option that will be a very easy way to get a 7 Way plug, which is needed for a brake controller. Tekonsha harnesses are also the longest lived option out of all the brands we carry, so this is the one to go with. Since you have the Draw-Tite # 76290 hitch installed, all you will need to get the wiring attached to...

  • How to Carry Two Canoes on Roof of 2019 Honda Passport with Factory Crossbars
  • Your best option is to use the Thule Compass Watersport Carrier # TH890000. The Compass is compatible with round, square, aero, elliptical, and most factory crossbars, including the ones on your 2019 Honda Passport. It can easily accommodate your two canoes, as long as their combined weight is not over 130 lbs, and they are not more than 36 inches wide (at their widest point). The Compass will allow you to carry your two canoes in a vertical (post-style) position so you have one on each...

  • Parts Needed to Install 7-Way and Brake Controller in 2019 Honda Passport
  • You are on the right track to install the 7-way and brake controller in your 2019 Honda Passport. The first thing you need is the 7-way part # CU86FR and then to install the P3 part # 90195 you'd just need the part # 3070-P and you'd be set. Then the mounting bracket part # HM48625 would work to mount the 7-way as well.

  • Hidden Hitch Recommendation for 2022 Honda Passport
  • For your 2022 Honda Passport the hitch I recommend is the Curt part # C13421 as it has great towing capacities and is mostly hidden since only hitch opening hangs below rear bumper. This allows it to be the least visible and also helps with ground clearance. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well.

  • Best Hitch for a 2020 Honda Passport
  • We do in fact have hitches for the 2020 Honda Passport. I recommend the Curt Class III, part # C13421. It has a gross tongue weight capacity of 750 pounds and a maximum towing capacity of 5000 pounds (which increases to 6000 pounds if you use a weight distribution system). It's a 2" receiver. I've linked to a video installation of this hitch on a 2020 Passport. If you're looking to tow a travel trailer, you'll need wiring for your Passport as well. I recommend the Curt T-Connector, part...

  • Recommended Brake Controller for a 2020 Honda Pilot
  • The brake controller I recommend for a 2020 Honda Pilot is the Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller part # C51180. The Curt Echo is a plug and play option so there will be no permanent modifications to the vehicle. It uses a device you are already comfortable with, your phone so you don't need to spend time learning a new device. Furthermore, you won't need to drill into your dash for mounting like you would for a traditional brake controller which not only eliminates drilling but...
