I just had it installed and it looks great. Only thing left to do is get a trailer and jetski and see it work



by:

Straightforward install and fits well, doesn't protrude excessively. Good quality hitch that works great.



by:

I can confirm, this hitch fits 2014-16 E250 Bluetec diesel, 4-matic, sport model
Fishing of the bolts required pulling out on the bumper cover
Not a big drama
Good price, easy install



by:

The YouTube video ETrailer posted was extremely helpful in guiding me through the installation. I’m 70 years old and was able to install it in just over 2 hours by myself. I wish I had used a step bit drill bit but stepping up from small drill bits one by one worked great.



by:

We chose the right hitch receiver, bold, great design for the car we had I need it to tow my motorcycle and all time works just perfect.
Strongly recommended.

Just perfect, the assemblies and job done was and is great!

Easy to install, Takes about an hour. Hardest part is drilling holes in your bumper beam. Other than that everything went well. Instructions provided are clear and concise. Hitch on car looks clean and hardly noticeable. Perfect for Hitch Mounted Bike Racks.

Still looks and works like day one! Highly recommend!

Mercedes-Benz

This is an excellent product and we are most pleased with it. We have a 2015 Mercedes E250 bluetec diesel. It is not one of the listed vehicles for this hitch. A Mercedes mechanic told me this would fit on my car and he was correct. It took him a while to complete the installation but the hitch works perfectly. Plus the installation cost was very reasonable. We use the hitch to carry our bikes. Be sure to use an extra strap to add further stability.

Great product



by:

Amazing, professional, reliable, and most importantly reasonable delivery time



by:

Trailer works good. Easy enough install. Only issue was that hitch arrived missing a spacer required for installation. I reached out to George at etrailer multiple times. he said they don't have the spacer and need to get it from manufacturer. I waited a week without any response, checked with etrailer again, they said the manufacturer had not responded and they would check with them again. Waited another week, no response. Checked again, they said still have not heard from manufacturer. I requested an RMA to return the trailer. waited a week, no response, two weeks nothing, third week, got an email from Carole with an RMA number. By this time I had already contacted Curt Manufacturing myself, and requested the part, received it, and installed the hitch, or I would have certainly returned it.

Customer support at etrailer is extremely lacking.



by:
2013 Mercedes-Benz E-Class

It’s a great product. It fits perfectly on my Mercedes Benz E class sedan 2013. Very easy to install. I highly recommend a good power drill. Also, when is time to install the metal plate in the back (4 bolts and washers- step 1-2) start with the 2 bottom ones instead the 2 top ones as you see in the instructions. It’s easier that way. The rest is completely easy. I’ll use this hitch to hang up my 2 bike rack “Yaki....”
I want to ad that the seller was always in contact with me which I think is great. Also, the delivery was on time and the package was perfectly wrapped and protected by a big box.



by:

Great quality. Good design good fit even though the hitch was not long enough to fit in the center of the square bumper and my e250 diesel model doesn’t have cutouts to fish wire the bulk and washer through; I had to drill completely through both walls of the bumper tube and buy longer bolts from Home Depot to make this install compete. Through bolts are a stronger and better I stall anyway.

Good compamy good service



by:
Chevrolet Cobalt

It actually was a perfect fit. The difficult part was drilling the two 17/32 holes. I would recommend that you provide some advice on how to drill those holes in a Mercedes E350 bumper. I tried hi-speed cobalt bits and even a masonry bit. In the end, I had to use my oxyactylene torch to burn those holes and then clean them up with the cobalt bit.

Works perfectly RO hold my bike rack

It works and fits as advertised with no problems at all

See what our Experts say about this CURT Trailer Hitch

  • What is the Purpose of the Stabilizer Strap That is to be Used On CURT Class I Hitches
    The strap you are referring to is the Curt Bike Rack Strap # 18050. It helps provide extra security to hitch mounted bike racks when using hitch mounted accessories. The strap provides additional support to the rack and would help prevent additional wear on the hitch and your vehicle when using hitch mounted accessories such as a bike rack. The hitch is stable, but the strap will more offer more stability, and failure to use a strap will void the warranty of the hitch. I attached installation...

  • Can I Attach A Hitch Cargo Carrier To A Trailer Hitch On A 2012 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Sedan
    I do have a solution for you that would not require a trailer hitch adapter, meaning you can carry up to 200 lbs on the tongue of your trailer hitch. This is the maximum tongue weight for the trailer hitch compatible with your 2012 Mercedes-Benz E-Class, part # C11001. The tongue weight will include the weight of the carrier and the items you will be carrying. The 20x47 Reese Cargo Carrier for 1-1/4" Hitches - Steel - 300 lbs, part # 63155, weighs about 44 lbs, leaving you with 156 lbs...

  • Can the Curt Hitch # C11001 Work with my JetSki Trailer on My 2011 Mercedes E-350 Sedan?
    While the Curt Hitch - 1-1/4" # C11001 definitely has enough gross towing weight capacity for your 780-pound JetSki and 500-pound trailer, you also need to consider the tongue weight of your setup. The tongue weight is the vertical weight that is exerted on the hitch. This number is important because the # C11001 only allows for a maximum of 200 pounds of tongue weight. In order to get an accurate reading, I recommend using a tongue weight scale like our etrailer Tongue Weight Scale for...

    There is a trailer hitch receiver that I confirmed with the manufacturer fits your 2013 Mercedes-Benz E350 sedan, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11001. If you plan on doing some towing, the only 4-way that fits your Mercedes is the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness # 119250KIT. You will also need Curt Class II Drawbar # C45521, Pin and Clip # F-4, and either 1-7/8" Hitch Ball # A-80 or 2" Hitch Ball # A-82.

  • Comparing Curt Trailer Hitches for a 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-350

  • Best Hitch And E-Bike Option For A 2013 Mercedes-Benz e350
    A hitch bike rack is going to be your only option. First, here are your hitch options. If you have a Sedan then you need # C11001. If you have the wagon you need # C11189 and if you have the coupe or convertible there is not a hitch available . All these options are a class 1 hitch. When it comes to a 2 e-bike rack when using a class 1 hitch receiver, you only have one option and it's a great rack!

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2014 Mercedes Benz E350 Coupe
    I reached out to the biggest suppliers of trailer hitches, and neither Curt or Cequent (the maker of draw-tite, reese and hidden hitch) have a fit for your 2014 Mercedes Benz E350 Coupe. So, unfortunately I don't have a trailer hitch receiver that is a confirmed fit for your vehicle. If I can help you with a trunk mounted bike rack or a roof rack to meet your needs, please let me know and I'd be happy to make a recommendation.

  • What Drilling is Required to Install Curt Class I Hitch C11001 on 2013 Mercedes-Benz E350 Sedan
    All Curt hitches for the 2013 Mercedes-Benz E-Class models require drilling. The hitch that fits your E350 Sedan is their Class I hitch # C11001 and to install this you will drill into the bottom of the steel bumper beam but you do not have to drill or cut the rear fascia panel. The linked instructions list the tools needed and the step by step process. I have attached an install and review video for you to check out.

  • Parts Needed to Tow Trailer with 2010 Mercedes E-350 Sedan
    The Curt trailer hitch part # C11001 is a confirmed fit for your 2010 Mercedes E-350 sedan and would be a great option. Then for trailer wiring the ZCI kit part # 119250KIT would work great as well. This is a universal kit but it uses sensors instead of splices to the vehicle wiring to get the correct signal for the trailer wiring. Then for a ball mount you'd want the part # C45521. For a 2 inch hitch ball you'd want the # A-82 or for a 1-7/8 inch ball part # A-80.

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2011 Mercedes E350 Sedan
    We do have a trailer hitch for the 2011 Mercedes E-350 sedan. Take a look at Curt Trailer Hitch, # 11001. I have included a link to the installation details for you to view. If you plan on doing some towing, the hitch does come with the recommended ball mount. You can use ball # 19256 (1-7/8 inch diameter) or # 19258 (2 inch diameter). Trailer Hitch # C11030 that you have referenced is designed to fit 2008 - 2010 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Sedans so it will not fit a 2011 E-Class.

  • Availability of Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2011 Mercedes-Benz E350 Sedan

Curt's warranty requirements state that if the hitch is used for a non-trailer load like a bike rack or cargo carrier, a stabilizing strap like part # 18050 needs to be used. If you'll be using the hitch to tow a light duty trailer, you'll need the following: Ball mount, part # C45521 1-7/8 inch trailer ball, part # A-80 or 2 inch ball, part # A-82 Trailer wiring harness, part...

  • Recommended Cargo Carrier And Wiring For 2010 Mercedes E350 With Class l Hitch

Or you can check the safety/warning sticker on the hitch. Please keep in mind the hitch weight limit has to accommodate the weight of the hitch cargo carrier itself added to the weight of the loaded cargo. You need to also consider the clearance you have when you are attaching any carrier to the hitch of your vehicle. The carrier you referenced...

This will provide a 200 pound tongue weight capacity and will require some drilling into the bumper beam during installation.

    Currently there is no hitch offered for the 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Coupe, only for the sedan version. Hitches are designed expressly for specific vehicles and so it is not advisable to attempt to install one on a vehicle different than that for which it was intended. The Curt hitch you referenced, part # C11001, is a light-duty Class I hitch suitable for use with a hitch- mount bike rack or cargo carrier.

    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11001 is going to be the only receiver we offer for your 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-350 sedan. Due to the very low weight rating of the receiver you might consider a small Trailer # K2MMT5X7 to pull your bikes and cargo around. The trailer only weighs 451lbs but is capable of carrying up to 2,090lbs depending on the vehicle pulling it. And as its a utility trailer you do not have to have several different carriers for different cargo. To pull the trailer you...

  • Does Curt Hitch part # C11001 Fit a 2012 Mercedes Benz E-350 Sedan
    The Curt hitch part # C11001 is a fit for your 2012 Mercedes E-350 Sedan since it is not a Sport Package vehicle. There is drilling involved to install the hitch. When you install an aftermarket part on your vehicle like a trailer hitch in this case, you are protected by the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act. This act states, in part, that unless the installation and the part caused a problem then the warranty cannot be voided. I recommend looking it up online.

    I checked with the hitch manufacturer, and the Curt Hitch # C11001 is not a fit for a 2015 Mercedes-Benz E-250, it only fits the E-350 sedan because the DEF tank interferes with the installation that you see on the gas models.
