Is There A Trailer Hitch Receiver For A 2017 Volvo XC90 That Doesn't Require Cutting Bumper?
Question:
hello, I am wanting to know if there is any aftermarket hitch out there which would fit my 2017 vovo xc90 r design without having to have the rear bumper cut? Looks like even the factory hitch requires cutting the bumper. Too bad it doesnt just hang under the bumper like on my 2014 Toyota Sienna. Any ideas? Thanks

For your 2017 Volvo XC90, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13233 does not need to have the rear bumper cut. According to their instructions, there is heat shield trimming required and skid shield trimming if present, but there is not any bumper or facia trimming required for this installation.
I've attached the installation details for you. You will want to note that for any non-trailer load, Curt requires the use of a stabilization strap # 18050.
