Expert Reply:
The Curt # C51180 is compatible with the 2019 Subaru Ascent.
If the vehicle has the tow package with the factory 7-way trailer connector, it'll be a plug and play install.
If you don't have the factory 7-way, you'll need the # ETBC7L install kit and will need to install a # 118790 4-pole trailer connector. The adapter included with the kit would plug into the 4 pole provided by the # 118790, providing a 7-way. You'd use the wire included in the kit to run a circuit to the positive battery terminal via the included circuit breaker.
I've linked to an install video showing the # 118790 being installed plug a product video explaining how the # ETBC7L kit is used.
