Will the etrailer Trailer Hitch # e65AR Fit on a 2007 Nissan Murano

Question

Question:

Seen quite a few positive posts on this hitch for older muranos even though your website recommends other hitches. Does this fit up to 2007 muranos? I am ready to buy if so. Also, do you sell the wiring harness that couple to the OEM connectors in the vehicle? Thanks

The 2007 Nissan Murano has ribs on the driver side vehicle frame for muffler hangers where the hitch bolts up. Because of these ribs, the etrailer Trailer Hitch, item # e65AR, is not recommended for your 2007 vehicle and is only recommended for the 2009-2014 models.

The correct hitch for your 2007 model Murano is the Draw-Tite Class III Trailer Hitch, item # 75148. On our product page we have photos of the hitch installed on the vehicle.

A more economical option for your vehicle would be the Curt Class III Trailer Hitch, item # 13571. We have an installation video of this hitch for you to review.

The wiring harness for your 2007 Nissan Murano is the Tekonsha T-One, item # 118653. This harness will plug into the OEM connectors provided on your vehicle and then has a hot lead run to the battery.

Some other items you may need to complete your towing setup are listed below.

Drawbar - # C45010
