I followed the installation directions for our 2023 Kia Telluride hitch carefully. To facilitate installation, since I have no lift, I had the car extended over a down facing driveway apron and raised up on blocks. It was still a little challenging to get the parts behind the rubber exhaust pipe hangers. A car jack and ropes helped hold the hitch in place while the bolts were installed. You have to be bold when cutting a hole in the bumper for the hitch to stick through. Once installed, the hitch has worked perfectly on many bicycle excursions with either of the two Curt bicyle racks I purchased - a four bike hanger rack (which can handle three adult bikes) and a two bike flat rack. Especially for the price, this has been an excellent solution for us. I would comment on the bike racks separately.
I purchased this after learning the new telluride I ordered would not have a hitch so I contacted e trailer and purchased what I needed. The hitch was a breeze to install the wiring was a little more challenging but both have been great! Thanks for providing a great product at a competitive cost.
Fantastic service! Lightning fast service! I would not hesitate to recommend family and friends to this company!!
The combination that etrailer recommended to us has been working wonderfully for the first year. Solid equipment and professional installation! We have put 10,000 miles on our car/trailer combo and have had zero issues. Very satisfied customers!
Very happy with my hitch purchase from etrailer. The hitch shipped the same day I ordered it, and it arrived literally the next day.
The hitch included clear instructions and I installed it in about 90 minutes. Great experience from end to end with this purchase.
God hitch that fit our Kia Telluride perfectly. The only modification needed was trimming the plastic on the center of the rear bumper as the video stated for this hitch. I used an oscillating cut off tool which trimmed it up perfectly. Once installed it looks like it came from the factory.
Fit perfectly and has worked great. Easy installation
Shipping was insanely fast and installation was easy. Product fit I had it in within 45 minutes. This is my 3rd purchase from them within 10 or so years and every time has been great. I’m a lifetime customer for sure.
webpage said part fit without factory tow package. Got part and packaging said does not fit lx or s models. Poor website description, they want me to pay $[XX]. for return shipping. I ordered new part directly from Curt and product description was clear. My auto repair shop will not order anything else. Thanks

I am so sorry to hear that! It looks like for LX and S models without LED lights, you would need part # C93FV.
The hitch was easy to install with the included instructions. I didn't have to drill any holes. It's a nice looking and heavy duty product. Shipping was super fast and it was packaged well to avoid any shipping damage.
This trailer hitch for my 2024 KIA Telluride is the 2nd trailer hitch I've purchased from etrailer (the 1st was for a 2014 Honda Odyssey). Through zero fault of etrailer, the installation of the Honda Odyssey was much easier than the KIA Telluride installation. However, in both cases, the end result was excellent -- great products from etrailer. Per a [online] installation video (and my subsequent experience), the written installation instructions provided for where to cutaway the Tellulride's plastic bumper are incorrect -- they result in the cutaway not being centered and that is wrong. Fortunately, I watched the video first and centered the cut-out. Additionally, through zero fault of etrailer, one of the two pass-through bolts on the passenger's side barely has enough clearance and I had to gently tap the bolt with a hammer to get it to clear (thereafter zero problems with alignment) and, yes, I installed the pass-through bolts before the threaded bolts.
This was purchased for a new, 2024 Kia Telluride. The hitch arrived VERY quickly, and I took to a local shop for installation. Everything worked out GREAT! It will mainly be used for a bike rack, with options for other stuff. I am VERY happy with how simple the whole process was. GREAT JOB ETRAILER!
This is the second hitch I purchased from etrailer and I am extremely satisfied with the video's provided on the website, which helped me decide on the specific hitch I wanted (this one mounted higher and required a minor cutting of the removable bumper panel which I wanted for a clean custom look and for use of my son's platform dirt bike carrier). The video's were "spot-on" and super accurate and easy to understand, which helped greatly with the installation. etrailer is a "top-notch" company and has accurate information for specific installations. The hitch arrived on time and in great condition (packaged appropriately for the delivery). The hitch is of great quality and workmanship (welds and finish). The instructions to install were accurate and easy to understand. The dimensions to cut the removable bumper panel were also accurate and easy to mark out. Installation came out perfect! I will always purchase my hitches from etrailer. I have recommended this company to two friends and they are both satisfied with the company and products purchased.
Purchased this for my 2020 Telluride and it fit perfectly. Everything lined up and the installation video was spot on. Definitely would recommend. My husband & I installed in a little over an hour.

Perfectly!! I love it!! And recommend it to other Telluride Owners. One ordered and awaiting arrival.
The hitch arrived in great condition, but was missing the mounting hardware. I contacted etrailer and the missing items were shipped very quickly. Great customer service
This fit perfectly on our 2023 Tellurid e!
This hitch looks and feels like a beast! Once installed and fasteners tightened it feels like it’ll tow every ounce of its rated weight.
I installed by myself in about 4 hours (which included a trip to Wally World to get a new jack when my husky decided it was done.
A couple of tips that I guarantee will make your install easier:
#1: DEFINITELY install/screw in the bolts on the exhaust (passenger) side FIRST. This is exactly what the instructions say to do, but me being the “genius” I am decided to forget about that part and screw in the driver side first.
2.) You would be well served to purchase an “exhaust hanger removal tool” for removing the hangers from the exhaust pipe. They’re all over Amazon for $16-$25. I recommend the Lisle 38350 pliers. $16.19 and 1-day shipping. If you have never dealt with removing exhaust hangers before, I promise you it will be worth every penny (even if you use it only once). It’ll save much time and many headaches.
3.) When it comes time to trim the bumper panel to allow room for the hitch, use a jigsaw with laminate blade. My cordless dewalt jigsaw w/laminate blade cut through the panel like butter and made getting a perfect fit very easy (see pictures). Obviously this requires removing the panel altogether, but I would recommend doing this regardless of what tool you’re using for the trimming.
Also, the included instructions for the 2022 Telluride version show the spare tire being lowered by using a wrench on the underside of the vehicle. While this is possible, it is exponentially easier to lower it by using a 13/16” socket on the bolt accessed from under the removable back floorboard panel (if my description of the location is confusing, see page 6-16 of the ‘22 Telluride Owner’s Manual for an illustration and better description).
Overall I give this 5 stars. I am by no means an expert (or even moderate, for that matter) “car guy”, and was able to install by myself in one day. That being said, I am above average in strength so don’t assume you will be able to do it alone - the hitch is pretty hefty (which of course is a good thing), especially when maneuvering it while on your back under the car.
If you follow the 3 tips listed above, I guarantee it will significantly reduce your install time and result in a cleaner, more professional look.
Everything is bolt on and extremely easy to install if you follow the video instruction or the instructions that come with the product. In addition to the hitch, I also got the harness which was easy to install. Thanks etrailer for making my family road trip happen.
Very easy to install by myself. All of the holes lined up and hardware threaded right in. Took about an hour. Curt is a great product and fast shipping by etrailer.

After a year of use, we are still pleased with our hitch. There are no signs of rust. I checked the torque on the bolts a month ago and nothing loosened up. We only tow a 3000 lb utility trailer a few times a year. So far so good!
Second hitch ive ordered from etrailer, just as good of an experience as the first time.
Install was super simple to do myself on our garage floor for our 2022 Kia Telluride.
Works great and easy to install
Perfect! Everything lined up as usual, my 3rd receiver from Etrairler. Order Tuesday at 3:00, got home in Pittsburgh at 3:30 on Thursday, it was on my porch. I’m 64 yrs old and installed it by myself in 1 1/2 hrs. Be prepared to cut a slot in the painted area of your bumper, you have to or the holes will not line up, trust me. Metric sockets and combo wrenches are a must. I used a hack saw and utility knife to cut my slot, worked well. Great help and service from Adam E.
I installed this on a 2024 KIA Telluride SX Prestige, Easy install. Only difficult part is the two horizonal bolts above the muffler, getting the washer by the heatshield need a little finesse.
The C13420 Curt hitch was easy to to install except for access to the two horizontal fasteners on the passenger side of the vehicle. It is impossible to get a torque wrench into this location.
Great option if your ride don’t come with a factory one. Installed easily by myself. Hardest part was notching the bumper cover of a brand new vehicle! But once installed can’t even tell.
