Fit & Compatibility of Curt Trailer Hitch C13195 on 2016 Kia Sorento L 4 Cylinder Front Wheel Drive
Question:
will the hitch work on a kia Sorrento L. front wheel drive 4 cylinder / C13195

Expert Reply:
Yes, the Curt trailer hitch # C13195 will work for all models of the 2016 Kia Sorento including the L with front wheel drive 4 cylinder engine. If you plan on using the hitch for any non-trailer loads like a bike rack, Curt requires you to use a stabilization strap like the # 18050 for warranty purposes. This is why I would instead recommend the Draw-Tite hitch # 75908 for your Sorento.
One of the most popular bike racks among customers with your vehicle is the Thule Hitching Post Pro # TH934XTR. This bike rack has all the great features and a small price tag. This bike rack will accommodate 4 bikes, has the hold fast cradles and anti-sway cradles to prevent bike to bike contact. It's tilting mast also allows for easy access to the rear cargo area when bikes aren't loaded. A great hitch lock for this bike rack is the # THSTL2 Snug-Tite which locks the bike rack to the hitch. To lock the bikes to the rack, I recommend the # TH538XT cable lock.
If you plan on carrying any alternative framed bikes, like many women's bikes are, then you will need a bike frame adapter bar like # UB01 for them to mount properly in the cradles.
I have linked the above mentioned products as well as a few installation videos to this page for your convenience.
