Trailer Hitch Available for 2016 Kia Forte Hatchback

Question

Question:

Hello, looking for advice on a trailer hitch to install an already purchased bike rack from you guys. I had ordered two hitches and installed them in my Kia Sedona and Dodge Journey and they went on perfect. I have a 2016 Kia Forte hatchback not able to actually find it on the or page. I looked at the QandA and someone mentioned it, then I clicked on the trailer hitch and it said it may not fit the 2016 Kia Forte. I can send a picture if you like, even the VIN of the car. I just want to make sure one is made for this particular car and will go on without any fuss. Please send me a reply when you can.

We do indeed offer a hitch for the 2016 Kia Forte Hatchback (A/K/A Kia Forte5). You'll need part # C11395. If you'll be doing some light duty towing with the hitch, you'll also need the # C39KR trailer wiring harness, a # C45521 ball mount, a # PC2 hitch pin and a # 19256 for a 1-7/8 or # 19258 for a 2 inch trailer ball.
