Fit of Curt C11395 Class I Trailer Hitch on 2014 Kia Forte5 Hiatchback
Question:
I have a question about the 11395 Curt Class 1 Trailer Hitch Receiver. Will this work with a 2014 Kia Forte5 hatchback? Id like to install this hitch and use it with a 1.25 inch hitch mount bike rack.

Expert Reply:
The Curt # C11395 is a fit for 2014-2016 model year Kia Forte5 Hatchback, so it will indeed fit your vehicle. If you click the provided link, you can see the installation instructions. If you'll be using the hitch as the attachment point for a bike rack or a cargo carrier, be aware that Curt's hitch warranty stipulates that a stabilizing strap like part # 18050 must be used for non-trailer loads.
If you'll be using the hitch for towing purposes, you'll need the following to complete your towing system:
Trailer wiring harness, part # C56228
Ball mount, part # C45521
1-7/8 trailer ball, part # 19256 or 2 inch ball, part # 19258
