Will the Curt Trailer Hitch # C11604 Fit a 2017 Honda Civic Hatchback EX-Nav

Question:

Will this hitch work on my 2017 Honda Civic Hatchback EX-Nav. I do not have a vehicle lift and it looks easier to install than the c11463.

The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11604 is designed to fit the Sedan model of the 2017 Honda Civic and is not compatible with your hatchback. For a Curt trailer hitch that is confirmed to fit your hatchback you would need the part # C11463. There is a design difference between the 2 and if you check out the installation videos that I linked you can clearly see why one would fit the hatchback over the other.

Lifts do make installing any trailer hitch easier but if you are comfortable working on vehicles you the installation of the 11463 isn't too difficult. The exhaust must be lowered and the heat shield modified or trimmed but this is done in the installation video so you can reference it for the install.

Please note that any non-trailer loads should be supported with a strap like part # 18050 according to the Curt warranty for this trailer hitch.
