Draw-Tite's Tested Tough program provides testing standards far superior to those outlined by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the go-to source for engineering professionals.
Each Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver undergoes extensive fatigue testing and static testing with the ball mount that is either supplied or recommended for use with that particular hitch, thus ensuring results that are applicable to real life use. Fatigue testing is also conducted on hitches rated for use with weight-distribution systems.
In addition, Draw-Tite performs static testing on a simulated automobile, as opposed to the rigid fixture used for SAE testing, resulting in a more true-to-life scenario.

I purchased this product for my Chevy Equinox. Installation took a little longer than expected, but that was due to searching for Jacks, moving things in the garage, setting up lights, etc. The video of installation was very helpful. I have been very satisfied with the product. Have had it for over a year now. 750076
Hitch fit perfect on my 2019 Equinox. There is one extra hole on the drivers side so make sure you use the right 3 holes because the bolt doesn't come back out as easy as it goes in. 719644
Purchased this hitch to install it on a 2018 GMC Terrain. I did not purchase it for the purpose of towing anything. I purchased it for attaching our Thule bike rack. I was not going to pay a GM dealership $350 plus $150 for installation to haul bicycles. I purchase what I needed from etrailer.com. I followed the simple video and installed it myself, without no one helping me in about 45 minutes. saved myself $372 and end up with a hitch that looks and works just the way I need it to. 619776
Keith D - 04/10/2020I have a 2018 Chevrolet Equinox and the hitch I bought for this car out under the bumper. The previous equinox had knock out piece for the hitch to be installed higher. The problem I have with hitch using my existing bike rack the rack can drag the ground with uneven grown or pavement. I welcome any suggestions. Ron 636449
What can I say but this was the easiest trailer hitch install I've ever done. OK, this was the third one (85 S-10 blazer, 96 Astro van, and this is the third). Our 03 Envoy (traded it in for the Equinox) and 02 2500HD (still have) both have factory hitches. It was delivered by UPS ground late afternoon and by 6:30 I had it installed. Jacked up the rear of the Equinox, placed two jack stands and followed the instructions. I will say Watch The Video for the install and it is that easy. I chose this hitch as it required no grinding or enlarging of the holes as the other hitch (Curt model). The video was spot on. I did apply some antisieze on the bolts as I always assume I will need to remove it at some future time. There was written instructions that I did look through but they matched the video. I did not use a strap to hold the exhaust as the video and the instructions showed. I used a bungy cord and adjusted it for a similar drop as a strap. I wanted to do this as I felt I may need to drop exhaust even more than the instructions as I installed this by myself. If you have an available friend it will make it easier to hold the hitch in place and start a nut on each side rather than using both hands and one leg. Working with etrailer was easy. This order was delayed by another item I had bundled together with it. The email communication from etrailer was appropriate and let me know what was going on. The delay was not a real issue as we special ordered this car and it took about 6 weeks to arrive. We keep our vehicles forever (still have the S-10 and the Astro) and I look forward to this hitch providing us years of trouble free service. I was quite impressed with the craftsmanship on this hitch, the welds were perfect. The entire hitch except where the receiver goes in is hidden behind the rear valence. Thank you etrailer! 398111
GM - 06/27/2018So far so good. Installation wasnt too hard, but make sure you dont let the bolt and wire fall out after you have pushed in the metal support bracket... My product was missing 3 pieces when it arrived (1 support bracket and 2 nuts). I assume they fell out during shipping, the bag had a small hole in it and the box had multiple holes and openings they could have fallen out of. 637469
TLDR - 5 stars on customer service and response. 1 star on shipping packaging and initial product. If I could give 4.5 stars overall I would. I have a 2019 Chevy Equinox LT that I bought about two months ago. I wanted a tow hitch installed from the dealer, but I am glad I didn't buy it from them. The dealer wanted over $500 for the hitch and install. I did a ton of research, and it all kept leading back to etrailer.com. The website didn't show any hitches available for my year, but I did find a customer service thread talking about my SUV showing everything I needed along with part numbers. I ordered the hitch and wiring harness, and I received a shipping email the same day. Tracking said it would take five days, but I received it in three via UPS. The package was damaged with a large hole in the middle of the box. I took pictures of the whole box before I opened it and immediately emailed customer support of etrailer. Mind you, this was on a Saturday, and I wasn't expecting a response until Monday morning. To my surprise I received a response within 15 minutes, and also provided a direct email and phone number for use. Customer service asked for me to open the package and inspect the hitch. Unfortunately, the hitch was damaged quite a bit. I am not quite sure how this particular item could have passed any type of quality control. There were large scratches that looked like impact areas that went down to bare metal in several areas on the item. These impacts did not match the damage on the shipping box, so it was quite clear that they were from before the unit was shipped. There were also impact and drag marks that looked to have been caused during shipping that coincided with the box damage. Also, one of the holes that were to be used to mount the hitch to the SUV was not fully cut out and would have been very difficult to complete without heavy duty tools. I took more pictures and responded to the email that I had been provided with. Within 15 minutes customer service responded that they apologized for the damaged hitch and would be providing a return shipping label and immediately shipping a new hitch. I received the shipping label almost immediately, and the shipping notification first thing on Monday morning. I received the new hitch on Thursday morning. There was slight damage to the shipping box and to the paint on the edges of the crossbar where it looked like it may have been dropped or dragged during shipping. Installation was extremely easy. I am lucky and have a friend that has a car lift that I can use. I followed the install video that is on the hitch webpage of etrailer. I added some anti-seize compound to the bolts just in case, and I highly recommend doing so for everyone. I also added some primer and paint onto areas that were damaged during shipping to reduce the chance of rust in the future. The hitch fit perfectly and looks great on my SUV.

This is a quality product. Very easy to install. If you have any mechanical ability you should be able to do it yourself. If you have a hoist I'm sure you could do it in 40 minutes as the web site says. However, I backed my car onto a couple of car ramps and laid on my garage floor and installed. Took me about 1.5 hrs. I would like to see a little better packaging. My hitch was "poking" out of 3 holes in the shipping box. Everything was ok but was concerned when I got the box. Overall, a great product, highly recommend. 603991
Jerry D - 02/13/2020Easy to install as stated in video! 1.5 hours. 855269
It took about 45 minutes in all to put it on. Watching the video was helpful. The only problem is that it does hang down so I have to be careful backing out of the garage and over the curb so it does not hit the ground. 846057
Arrived extremely fast, 2 days with regular shipping. Installed on 2020 Chevy Equinox. Just relax and follow the online video, they even call out socket sizes. An extra hand to install as suggested by the video would be nice, but I used my creeper and some assorted 2x4 blocks. The hitch is excellent quality, very nice welds, and as concealed as possible given location of the cars exhaust system. Aluminum cargo rack fits closely, with a 0.5" gap between bumper. Will be driving cross county next week with the cargo rack. Definitely no worries about the hitch! 845990
I had a great experience with this company. The website was easy to navigate and order my hitch. I spoke with customer service in regards to questions about shipping which they answered kindly. I payed for expedited shipping and it arrived a whole day before the expedited reciving date. Their installation video was helpful and easy to follow. The hitch also came with an assembly kit that made the process a whole lot easier. The hitch fit perfectly on my vehicle and is working great. 836937
Excellent product! Still looks as new as the day I had it put on. I’d recommend to anyone. Actually my sister had one put on her car after she saw mine. 830244
Great product, quick delivery! 828625
This is a durable and well put together hitch. There were absolutely no fitment issues and went together perfect. I highly recommend this product. 828453
Great product, went together just like the video showed. Took me about an hour and a half to install by myself, mainly because I didn't lift the vehicle and had to fight for space between the exhaust and the ground. Definitely recommend. 824332
Perfect fit. Not difficult to install. Great quality and extremely useful several times in recent weeks. Great price made this one an easy buy. I will definitely be buying more from e trailer. 822934
Arrived early and fairly straightforward installing the hitch. Happy with the purchase. 822522
Since we travel a lot, we needed a hitch to put onto our 2020 Terrain. This product fit perfectly and exactly what we were looking for in price. 821984
Hitch fit good with all the hardware included in the packaging 820089
My drawtite hitch went on without a ....problem. I chose it because of the mounted profile on my Equinox. I used it on vacation , carrying a large cooler and other things to give me more room inside. 818162
Easy install. After a year now, everything is great. Does the job 811617
This hitch fit my wife's 2018 Chevy Equinox perfectly. Easy install in about an hour. Equinox is not a towing machine but we use it to haul our bikes when not traveling in the truck. 809991
