I linked an installation video below for the etrailer Hitch item # e98841. Around the 7:45 mark it will go over the process to clear out any rust. If these are the steps you have taken you may need to have the threads retapped. You can use the Tap Wrench Kit for Standard Pipe Sizes item # PT22FR to clear out the threads for the M10 bolts. view full answer...
The Pro Series 48x32 cargo carrier can hold up to 400 pounds. The carrier itself weighs about 105 pounds including the ramp. This would yield a total tongue weight of 505 pounds. The hitch that you had previously purchased has a tongue weight capacity of 350 pounds. I would make sure that whatever load you are putting on the carrier is 245 pounds or less to ensure you are within the limit of the hitch.
Check your vehicle owner manual. If the tongue weight capacity of the vehicle is less... view full answer...

The Curt Trailer hitch, part # C13195 is designed to fit your 2016 Kia Sorento. This is a Class lll hitch and has a 2 inch receiver opening.
We have not had an opportunity to install this hitch on the 2016 yet but you may be able to judge the distance with a quick measurement. The distance from the plate on the passenger side that mounts to the frame to the top of the receiver is 6 inches. I have attached the installation instructions and you can use them for a reference where you would... view full answer...
The ground clearance and hitch pin hole to bumper measurements you referenced seeing on another answer page for the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75908 were taken with the hitch installed on the 2017 model Kia Sorento. The slight changes on your 2019 model Sorento cause these measurements to differ with the same hitch mounted. Other variables such as tire size, rear cargo, etc can change these measurements a bit as well even within the same model year so it's important to... view full answer...
The Curt Trailer Hitch # C13195 for your 2019 Kia Sorento weighs in at just about 44 pounds while the Draw-Tite # 75908 is a bit lighter at 39 pounds.
Both feature identical 5,000 pound towing weight capacities but the Curt # C13195 does have a higher tongue weight limit of 750 pounds compared to 500 pounds for the Draw-Tite model. Because of this and the fact that it's made right here in the USA I recommend the Curt option between the two for your Sorento. view full answer...
From what I read in the owner's manual for the 2022 Kia Sorento, the maximum amount of tongue weight that can safely be applied to a hitch installed to the vehicle is 220 lbs.
For a hitch, I'd recommend the Curt Class III hitch, part # C34ER. If you'll be towing with the hitch, you'll need a trailer wiring harness like part # TK26FR. For a ball mount, use # 2753 and # 19260 for a 1-7/8 or # 63845 for a 2 inch trailer ball. view full answer...

Our etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e28AR and the Curt # C34ER are the highest rated at 4,000lbs and 600lbs of tongue weight. This is what the manufacturer Curt has certified is the most the receiver can handle. When I looked up your owners manual for the 2023 Kia Sorento SX Prestige they show the highest towing capacity at only 3,500lbs. This would mean the receiver is rated for more than the Sorento. view full answer...

Welcome back! The best option for a brake controller for your 2005 Kia Sorento EX is going to be the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller item # RED24FR. This is a proportional brake controller that activates your trailer's brakes when your Kia decelerates.
The reason the Tow-Pro Liberty is the best option is because of its unique installation method where the only visible portion is the control knob that's about the size of a nickel. The main unit is hidden away inside your dash to... view full answer...

The towing capacity of your vehicle is 3,500 lbs and tongue weight of 350 lbs max from the manufacturer.

I spoke with my contact at Curt, the manufacturer, about Curt Hitch, # C13073. He stated that the hitch is not rated for weight distribution because it is a lighter hitch that is wider than many other hitches. Because of this if you added a weight distribution system it would add more torque and possibly flex or bend the hitch. This flexing or bending would compromise the hitch and make it unsafe for towing. Because of that they do not recommend adding weight distribution with this hitch.

The Curt Trailer Hitch item # C13195 will work with your 2020 Kia Sorento but the wiring harness item # TK24FR will not because you do not have the towing package. Yours has different connectors than the Sorento's with the towing package.
To install a 7-Way harness on your 2020 Kia Sorento without the towing package, you will need two separate wiring harnesses because they don't make just one that'll do the job.
The first harness you'll need is the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness... view full answer...
