  • Parts Needed to Add a Brake Controller to a 2020 Kia Telluride
  • You definitely want to be utilizing the brakes on your camper. A general rule of thumb is that anything over 2,000 lbs needs to have active brakes, and most manufacturers either recommend or flat out say that anything over 1,000 lbs has to have active brakes. With that being said, since you already have a 4-Way connector on your 2020 Kia Telluride I recommend adding the Wiring Upgrade Kit # ETBC7L and using the Curt Echo Brake Controller # C51180.

These crossbars measure 53" long x 3-1/8" wide x 1" tall and have a weight capacity of 220-lbs however this is the dynamic (while in motion) weight rating, so while stationary your crossbars will be rated much higher however you'll want to adhere to your roof's maximum capacity...

  • Electric Brake Controller Recommendation on 2011 Kia Sorento
  • It looks like your questions have been answered from when you originally asked other than a recommendation for a brake controller. I suggest the Prodigy P2 # 90885 because of how reliable it is and how easy it to use. You'll also need some additional parts to install it. On your 2011 Kia Sorento you'll first need a 4-way trailer connector. The # C56332 will provide this for you. It plugs directly into your Kia's wiring using a plug along the frame rail at the rear of the vehicle. Once...

  • Trailer Hitch and Carrier for 2018 Kia Soul
  • It looks like you've chosen the Draw-Tite hitch, part # 24915, which does fit your 2018 Kia Soul. I've listed the cargo carriers we have for Class I hitches like the Draw-Tite and none of them have a ramp. Class I hitches aren't really designed to hold a lot of weight so there aren't many cargo carriers at all. Another thing to take into consideration is the weight capacity of the Soul. I wasn't able to find its tongue weight or towing capacity online but it should in your owner's manual....

  • Recommended Trunk Rack for 2019 Kia Soul
  • I have a solution for you, but there are no 4 bike trunk racks on the market, mostly because they're just not able to hold the additional weight safely. With that said, you can use something like the Yakima FullBack 3 # Y02633 which will carry 3 bikes weighing up to 90-lbs total. I really like the FullBack as an option because it comes with a cable lock for your bikes and a lock to keep the rack secured to your vehicle, plus the price point is a bit better than the other available choices....
