CURT parts for the Hyundai Veracruz
Wiring, ball mount and the rest
A bike rack needs nothing but the hitch. A trailer needs lights, and CURT 56332 ($88.90 CAD) is the four-flat harness that plugs into the Veracruz's factory connector for 2007 through 2010 and 2012. No cutting, no scotch-locks.
Then a ball mount sized to the receiver: CURT 45836 ($41.70 CAD) drops straight into a 2-inch receiver. Pick the drop or rise that keeps the trailer level, and match the ball to the coupler. The ball mount guide covers both in two minutes.
Canadian winters eat hitch hardware. Salt and brine get into the receiver and the trailer plug, so a smear of grease on the pin, a cap on the receiver and a rinse under the bumper in spring keep a CURT hitch looking new for years. The rust and salt care guide has the full routine.
Hyundai Veracruz hitch questions
Which CURT hitch fits my Hyundai Veracruz?
It depends on the year. CURT 13545 covers 2007 through 2012, a Class 3 hitch with a 2-inch receiver rated to 3,500 lb. Open your year page and the exact hitch, price and wiring are on it.
Can I put a bike rack on a Veracruz with this hitch?
Yes. The 2-inch receiver takes any 2-inch rack, and a loaded rack counts against the hitch's tongue weight (350 lb on CURT 13545), so a four-bike platform rack with bikes on it is well inside the limit.
Can I install the hitch myself?
CURT rates CURT 13545 advanced, about 60 minutes, so expect some trim or drilling work. The main body tucks behind the bumper so only the receiver shows. The install video above is the real job, uncut.
How much can a Veracruz tow with a CURT hitch?
The hitch is rated to 3,500 lb, but the Veracruz's own tow rating in the owner's manual is the ceiling. The lower of the two numbers is your limit, every time.
