How to Select a Trailer Hitch
Why a Fiesta often lands on a Class 1 one and one quarter inch receiver for bike racks and light cargo when the door sticker agrees.
Watch on YouTube →Shopping a trailer hitch for a Ford Fiesta in Canada? Start with the door-sticker year and body style, then open the matching CURT card. CURT 11067 is the deeper in-stock Class 1 hitch for listed 2011 through 2019 Fiesta hatchback years on the live card, with a one and one quarter inch receiver. CURT 11369 covers listed 2013 through 2016 Fiesta sedan years on its own Class 1 card. Wiring for towing a trailer is a separate carton. The RV flat-tow harness on the shelf is not the same job as trailer light wiring, so we stay honest about that gap here. Confirm ratings on each live product card, and keep Focus and other Ford cars on their own guides when those badges are on the door.
All four videos are from the official CURT YouTube channel (@curtmfg). Use them for class selection, install habits, wiring basics, and ball-mount height before you dig into the Fiesta cards below.

CURT 11067 is the Fiesta hatchback hitch we stock in depth for listed 2011 through 2019 years, Class 1 with a one and one quarter inch receiver. The live description lists about one thousand five hundred pounds gross trailer weight and one hundred fifty pounds tongue weight for that hatchback fitment. CURT 11369 is the sedan card for listed 2013 through 2016 Fiesta sedan years, also Class 1 with a one and one quarter inch receiver, with about two thousand pounds gross trailer weight and two hundred pounds tongue weight on its live description. Always confirm the numbers and year list on the product card you open. Pair either hitch with accessories that fit a one and one quarter inch tube.
| Topic | What we tell shoppers |
|---|---|
| Hatchback versus sedan | 11067 is the hatchback shelf for listed 2011 through 2019 years. 11369 is the sedan shelf for listed 2013 through 2016 years. Do not mix those body styles. |
| Class 1 reality | Both cards are Class 1 with a one and one quarter inch tube. Match pins, locks, covers, and rack shanks to that opening. |
| Wiring honesty | We do not treat an RV flat-tow harness as trailer light wiring for towing behind a Fiesta. Ask for a vehicle-specific trailer harness check before night towing. |
| Receiver size | One and one quarter inch accessories fit these Class 1 tubes. See the receiver size guide. |
| Door sticker | Hitch class is not the Ford tow limit. Read the door sticker before you load tongue weight. |
| Related Ford cars | Keep Focus and Fusion on their own guides when those badges are on the door. |
| Install habits | Use the CURT install techniques video, then recheck hardware after the first trips. See hitch bolt torque tips. |
| Lights and fuses | Walk lights before the first tow. If a fuse blows after a harness install, open trailer wiring fuse tips. |
