Will Curt Hitch # C13411 fit a 2012 Mercedes ML550?

Question:

I don't see how this exhaust or frame in the rear is any different on the two vehicles. Will this fit my 2012 ML550?

The Curt Trailer Hitch # C13411 will fit your 2013 Mercedes-Benz ML550 only if you do not have the active curve system. This hitch features bolt-on installation as well as a hidden design so you can retain the clean, factory appearance of your Mercedes.

For models with the active curve system, there aren't any hitches available because the air lines used by the active curve system are in the way, so there is no room to mount a hitch. Depending on your application, there could be other great solutions in lieu of a hitch. If you are looking to transport bikes or cargo, a rear-mounted bike rack or roof rack could be a great option. Let me know if this is what you plan on doing and I can make some recommendations.
