Acura RDX Trailer Hitch Buyer’s Guide (Canada)

Shopping a trailer hitch for an Acura RDX in Canada? Start with the generation on your door sticker, then pick the CURT Class 3 card that matches those years. The newest in-stock path is CURT 13423 for 2019 through 2026 with a two inch receiver and strong quantity on this store today. Older RDX years have their own Class 2 and Class 3 cards so you are not guessing across body styles.

Built for Canadian RDX owners. Free shipping on CURT towing gear from Lots of Parts when the SKU is live on this store. New to hitch shopping? Start with the buying guide, how to choose a hitch, and what hitch class do I need. Prefer the full index? Open the towing guides hub.

How to Select a Trailer Hitch

CURT · Hitch class basics

Why most RDX shoppers land on a Class 3 tube with a two inch receiver even when the door sticker sets a lower real-world tow limit.

Trailer Wiring Harness Basics

CURT · T-connector overview

Useful before you order a custom four-flat. We do not invent an RDX wiring SKU when the catalogue does not list one.

Ball Mount and Trailer Ball

CURT · Drop and rise

Published Class 3 cards here use a two inch opening. Match the shank, then set drop so the trailer sits level on Canadian roads.

What we stock for Acura RDX

CURT 13423 is the Class 3 hitch we list for 2019 through 2026 Acura RDX. The application notes a possible liftgate sensor interference, so read the live card before you buy. It uses a two inch receiver, lists about 3,500 lb gross trailer weight on the card, and it is active with strong in-stock quantity on Lots of Parts today. Free shipping applies on CURT gear from this store when the SKU is live.

Earlier generations have their own in-stock cards. CURT 13130 covers 2013 through 2018 as a Class 3 with a higher published rating on the card. CURT 13154 covers 2010 through 2012 Class 3. First-gen Class 2 options include CURT 12004 for 2007 through 2009 and CURT 12083 for 2013 through 2018 if you only need a lighter tube for a bike rack or small cargo carrier.

We do not invent an RDX-specific wiring harness on this page. If a custom four-flat is not listed for your year, ask support rather than splicing blind. Driving an MDX instead? Use the Acura MDX hitch buyers guide.

Honest gaps and shopper notes

Generation split

Do not mix year cards

13423 is the 2019-and-newer path. 13130, 13154, 12083, and 12004 cover older generations. Order the card that matches your sticker years.

Liftgate sensor

13423 calls it out

CURT notes possible liftgate sensor interference on the 13423 application. Read the live product notes before install day.

Wiring

Not listed for RDX

We are not inventing a custom RDX four-flat. Ask support if you need trailer lights, and use the wiring basics video above for context.

Door sticker

Hitch rating is not the whole story

A Class 3 tube does not rewrite Acura’s published tow and tongue limits for your trim. Use the lowest number in the chain.

Step 1Confirm the year

Match your door sticker to a generation before you open a product card.

Step 2Open your lander

Use the RDX year pages above when they match your vehicle.

Step 3Pick the CURT card

13423 for 2019 and newer, or the older-gen Class 2 or Class 3 cards listed above.

Step 4Set the ball mount

Match a two inch shank and set drop so the trailer sits level.
