How to Select a Trailer Hitch
CURT’s selection overview before you compare Passport receivers, tongue-weight limits, and trailer weight.
Watch on YouTube →Shopping a trailer hitch for a Honda Passport in Canada? This guide covers the Class 3 receiver we stock for 2019–2025 Passports, the year pages that are live today, and the wiring choices that also show up on sister Pilot applications.
All four videos are from the official CURT YouTube channel (@curtmfg). There is no dedicated Passport install film on the channel yet, so use selection, technique, hardware, and wiring with your year page and the CURT sheet for CURT 13421. The install notes for that hitch are refreshingly short — raise it into place, clean weld nuts if needed, and torque the hardware.

CURT’s selection overview before you compare Passport receivers, tongue-weight limits, and trailer weight.
Watch on YouTube →Technique video when you install a current Passport hitch such as CURT 13421.

Watch on YouTube →Lots of Parts currently publishes Passport hitch year pages for 2019 and 2021 through 2025. We do not have a 2020 Passport lander live yet — that gap is called out on purpose. Our Class 3 rear receiver in stock for listed 2019–2025 Passports is CURT 13421. If your Passport already has a factory hitch, you may only need wiring, a ball mount, or accessories.
| Years | What we usually stock |
|---|---|
| 2019–2025 Passport | Class 3 rear: CURT 13421. Typical CURT ratings on that card are about 5,000 lb trailer and 750 lb tongue when used as a weight-carrying hitch, with weight-distribution figures listed on the sheet. Stay under Honda’s tow rating for your SUV. |
| Wiring · 4-flat | CURT 56291 — common Passport and Pilot lighting harness. Confirm plug type against your trailer. |
| Wiring · 7-way | CURT 56421 — 7-way style harness for listed Pilot and Passport years. Useful when the trailer needs brakes or reverse. |
| Brake control | CURT 51392 when your trailer needs electric brakes on listed Honda and Acura models. |
Never exceed Honda’s tow rating for your engine, drivetrain, and tow package. A hitch does not raise the vehicle limit.
These are live fitment pages on Lots of Parts. A 2020 Passport lander is not published yet.
