CURT parts for the 2017 Subaru Crosstrek

A Class 3 hitch puts a bike rack, a cargo carrier, a utility trailer or a small boat behind your 2017 Subaru Crosstrek. CURT 13135 is a Class 3 hitch with a 2-inch receiver, rated to 3,500 lb gross trailer weight and 525 lb tongue weight, $279.47 CAD. Shipping is free anywhere in Canada.

CURT calls the install a novice job, about 30 minutes with hand tools.

Trailer lights are a plug-in job on this one. CURT 56040 is the four-flat plug harness for the 2017 Subaru Crosstrek, $62.08 CAD, and it clicks into the factory connector so you're not splicing wires behind the bumper.

What you need to tow with a 2017 Subaru Crosstrek

A bike rack only needs the hitch. A trailer needs all three, and every piece ships free anywhere in Canada.

2017 Subaru Crosstrek hitch questions

Which trailer hitch fits a 2017 Subaru Crosstrek?

CURT 13135 is a Class 3 hitch with a 2-inch receiver, rated to 3,500 lb gross trailer weight and 525 lb tongue weight.

How much can a 2017 Subaru Crosstrek tow with this hitch?

The hitch is rated to 3,500 lb gross trailer weight and 525 lb tongue weight. Your Crosstrek has its own tow rating in the owner's manual, and the lower number is your limit. A loaded bike rack counts against tongue weight too.

Do I need a wiring harness for the 2017 Subaru Crosstrek?

If a trailer is going on, yes. Brake and turn signals have to work, and CURT 56040 plugs into the factory connector so the trailer lights follow the Crosstrek's. Order it with the hitch and it's one install.
