Draw-Tite Tested Tough
Draw-Tite's Tested Tough program provides testing standards far superior to those outlined by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the go-to source for engineering professionals.
Each Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver undergoes extensive fatigue testing and static testing with the ball mount that is either supplied or recommended for use with that particular hitch, thus ensuring results that are applicable to real life use. Fatigue testing is also conducted on hitches rated for use with weight-distribution systems.
In addition, Draw-Tite performs static testing on a simulated automobile, as opposed to the rigid fixture used for SAE testing, resulting in a more true-to-life scenario.

Our experienced and knowledgeable staff are available via both phone and email to address your questions and concerns for the lifetime of your hitch.

This review is in two parts. I purchased a 2018 Mazda 3 and was advised to check out etrailer.com for a tow hitch so I could add a bike rack. At this time there were concerns about global supply chain issues, etc. I reached out to etrailer with my car information and shortly thereafter the correct tow hitch for my vehicle was delivered. I am not mechanically inclined so I had it installed at a shop specializing in this type of work. The tow hitch worked great for my needs: solid, secure, not rattles.
Fast forward to this year. I bought a 2019 Mazda 3 last fall and needed a different tow hitch for the newer model so back to etrailer. Once again, the correct tow hitch for my vehicle, along with comprehensive instructions with photos that detailed a plastic portion of my Mazda underbody would be removed as part of the installation process. I want to thank Neil W for taking me through the ordering process and answering my questions. Not only does etrailer deliver a great product, the customer service is outstanding.

Had this hitch for a year mounted on a Mazda 3 with no issues! It has been used to hold a bike rack for 2 bikes. Delivery was fast and the quality of the hitch seems high. I checked the bolts a month ago an they were still tight.
Installing it took drilling a couple holes in the mounting area under the car. That was easy once I learned cutting fluid is needed when drilling into metal :)
by: Josh07/12/2023
The hitch is as advertised, you need to enlarge two holes in the bottom of the vehicle to insert the captive nut plates. You are also required to remove an underbody panel that cannot be re-installed with the hitch installed. My biggest complaint is that the hitch design means the weight has a lot of leverage over the mounts. This means with my bike rack and two bikes, there is quite a lot of flex from the hitch/mounting even with the weight well under the max weight rating.

2021 Mazda 3
Solid and well built. A few minor scratches that I will need to touch up to slow down the rusting of the hitch. Customer service is the best at eTrailer. I found this exact same hitch a lot cheaper on another web site and eTrailer matched the price. So I got the hitch I wanted at the price I wanted from the store I wanted it from.

- Availability Of Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2021 Mazda 3 SedanSince your 2021 Mazda 3 is still the 4th generation which is the same as the 2019-2020 Mazda 3, we were able to confirm that the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # 24982 you mentioned would fit just fine even though Draw-Tite has not had a chance to get a 2021 Mazda 3 in to test the fit quite yet. It often takes them a bit to get the information updated. If you are mechanically inclined and feel comfortable doing this type of installation you...

- Trailer Hitch to Fit a 2019 Mazda 3 SedanActually, the correct hitch for the sedan model of the 2019 Mazda 3 is part # 24982 instead of part # 24914. It's also a 1-1/4 inch Class I hitch like the first Draw-Tite you mentioned. I've attached a picture that shows it installed for you. As well as a link to the install details

- Is There a 2" Trailer Hitch for a 2019 Mazda 3 SedanThe trailer hitch I recommend for a 2019 Mazda 3 Sedan is the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 24982 which is the only available option currently. That said, this trailer hitch has a 1-1/4" receiver tube opening but that is all that is available because it's a smaller car. However, if you have a 2" accessory you want to use like a bike rack you can get an adapter like the Brophy Hitch Adapter part # HTAD but keep in mind you will have a reduced weight capacity.

I have attached a photo for you of the new generation receiver which as you can uses different attachment points on the bottom of the frame. The previous generation receiver used attachment points on the bottom of the frame rail and then another on the side of the frame...

- 2021 Mazda 3 Hatch Bike Rack RecommendationThe 2021 Mazda 3 only has one hitch receiver option. The Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4", part # 24982, will fit your vehicle. Unfortunately, this hitch receiver only fits the 2019-2021 Mazda 3. This is a Class I hitch so your hitch bike rack choices will be limited since most hitch bike racks will be compatible with Class II and higher rated hitch receivers. Another limitation will be the maximum tongue weight your hitch receiver can handle,...

The trailer hitch you're looking for comes from Draw-Tite: - Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24982 This will give your 2022 Mazda 3 Sedan a Class I hitch with a 1-14" receiver. While this does give you a hitch receiver just be mindful of the weight ratings of your vehicle and the hitch itself. If you were to use this for a bike rack you need to avoid loading more than 2 bikes on a Class I hitch so something like the Kuat Beta Bike Rack # B202-114 that only weighs...
view full answer... - What All is Needed To Use Trailer Hitch Bike Rack On 2022 Mazda 3 SedanThe Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 24982 is an excellent option for a 2022 Mazda 3 (Sedan) and it comes with all the hardware you need to install. It will work great for hitch mounted accessories like a bike rack. The bike rack will come with everything else you need like the hitch pin but that's all. If you don't already have one picked out, I recommend the Saris Freedom Bike Rack part # SA4412B due to its lightweight design and wide bike compatibility.

The Kuat Transfer V2 item # KU74FR will work better than most bike racks when folded up because of the large opening it has in the middle. However, I would have low expectations for visibility with a bike rack. I have linked a picture below that will show you the large opening the V2 has in the folded position.

view full answer... - Will Trailer Hitch Receiver Fit on 2010 & 2021 Mazda3There is a trailer hitch receiver that will fit a 2021 Mazda3 (both the sedan and hatchback), though a hitch from a 2010 won't be able to be transferred. The reason for that is the Mazda3 underwent a design change for the 2019 model year, so the different body style necessitated a change in the hitch design. So for a 2021 Mazda3, you have a pair of options for a hitch, again depending on if you are going with the sedan or hatchback: - Hatchback: Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C98BR -...
