All Hardware and Installation Instructions Included!
Whatever your task at hand -- whether it's launching that boat before daybreak, setting up your camper before the rush or getting a final load to the dump before close -- CURT class 3 trailer hitches offer the strength needed for serious towing. They make it easy to hitch up and Bring It, offering a vehicle-specific fit and the weight capacity to handle a variety of trailers. Custom class 3 hitches are the most common type of receiver hitch for pickup trucks and SUVs. Because of their weight range, they are also found on full-size cars, crossovers and minivans. Each custom-fit class 3 hitch package is made for vehicle-specific mounting. This particular kit fits certain years of the Chevy Captiva Sport and Saturn Vue (see application info to verify vehicle compatibility). It provides a weight carrying capacity of 3,500 lbs. GTW and 350 lbs. TW. It is also compatible with a weight distribution hitch for level towing and a rating of 4,000 lbs. WD and 400 lbs. WDTW. CURT class 3 trailer hitches are typically used to attach and haul utility trailers, boat trailers, campers, snowmobile or ATV haulers and more (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest-rated towing component). Each class 3 hitch has a 2" receiver tube and is tested in accordance with SAE J684 for safety. To ensure that CURT class 3 receiver hitches have what it takes for serious trailering, they are designed using a hands-on approach and are constructed with rugged, high-strength steel and precise welding. We also protect our class 3 hitches in a co-cured finish of liquid A-coat and black powder coat for superior resistance to rust, chipping and UV damage.
If your vehicle is not equipped with wiring for towing a trailer, CURT custom wiring is the ideal solution. A custom wiring harness -- also called a T-connector -- is a simple, plug-and-play electrical device that plugs into your automotive electric system and provides a standard, universal trailer wiring connection. This is done using two or more vehicle-specific, OEM-compatible connectors to plug into the taillight assembly, eliminating the need for cutting, splicing and soldering during installation. Custom wiring harnesses are made vehicle-specific, and while they are not available for all vehicles, they do offer one of the fastest, easiest and most secure ways to wire a vehicle for towing. This particular plug-in harness provides a 4-way flat connector socket and is designed to be a custom wiring harness to fit certain years of the Chevy Captiva Sport (to verify your vehicle compatibility, see application info). It comes with all necessary wiring components to establish a reliable trailer wiring connection, as well as a dust cover to keep the connector clean when not in use. You have a picture in mind of your next destination -- maybe it's the boat landing at your favorite fishing spot, maybe it's a campsite that overlooks one of nature's masterpieces, or maybe it's the next big jobsite. However, turning that picture into a reality takes more than just daydreaming. It takes a solid connection and the right amount of power. CURT custom wiring is made with some of the most sophisticated technology in the industry and is designed to install with ease, giving you a long-lasting electrical connection for your towing hitch setup.

When used as a weight carrying hitch, the gross load capacity is 3,500 lbs trailer weight and 350 lbs tongue weight. When used as a weight distribution hitch, the gross load capacity is 4,000 lbs trailer weight and 400 lbs tongue weight. However, you must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower.
The hitch weight is 28 lbs.
The hitch includes 6 hex cap screws (HHCS) M12×1.75, grade 10.9, zinc-plated (part number 10-10426) and 6 conical tooth washers (part number 30-00149). These fasteners attach the hitch to the existing weldnuts in the vehicle's frame rails.
Yes. The first installation step is to lower the exhaust by removing the rear 4 exhaust hangers. A spray lubricant may be needed to remove the hangers. This provides clearance to raise the hitch into position between the frame rails.
1. Lower the exhaust by removing the rear 4 exhaust hangers (use spray lubricant if needed). 2. Raise the hitch into position between the frame rails, aligning the hitch holes with the existing weldnuts in the frame rails (3 places on both sides). 3. Install the supplied hex bolts and conical tooth washers. 4. Torque all 12mm fasteners to 79 lb-ft.
All 12mm fasteners must be torqued to 79 lb-ft.
No. The manual explicitly states 'NO DRILLING REQUIRED'. The hitch uses existing weldnuts already present in the vehicle's frame rails.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure that all fasteners are tight and that all structural components are sound. This helps maintain safe towing performance and extends the life of the hitch.
Do not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity. Although the Curt 13594 has a gross load capacity of 3,500 lbs (weight carrying) or 4,000 lbs (weight distribution), your Saturn Vue may have a lower manufacturer limit that must be observed.

Yes, the Curt 56257 is designed for the Chevrolet Captiva Sport. It is also compatible with SUVs, Mini and Full-Sized Vans in the S-class category. If you have a different vehicle model or year, consult the vehicle manufacturer or Curt Manufacturing to confirm fitment.
The Curt 56257 is a custom wiring harness designed to provide trailer lighting connections for compatible vehicles. It includes a converter box and a 4-flat connector for trailer hookup. The harness integrates with your vehicle's existing taillight wiring to supply power to trailer lights.
You will need: 10mm socket, 1/4" socket, T-30 Torx bit, T-45 Torx bit, panel trim removal tool, Phillips screwdriver, wire stripper, wire crimper, cutting tool, and ratchet. A drill may also be required if you need to create a ground point.
Yes. The first step of installation is to locate the vehicle battery on the driver side under the hood and disconnect the negative battery terminal. This must be done before any other work.
The taillight wiring harness connectors are located behind the plastic side storage tray in the trunk area. On the driver side, they are behind the driver side rear access panel (S3); on the passenger side, they are behind the passenger side rear access panel (S4). You must remove the trunk floor covering, center foam tray, scuff panel, and storage trays to access them.
Separate the vehicle's taillight housing connectors from each other, taking care not to damage the locking tabs. Insert the custom wiring harness end with the yellow wire between the separated connectors on the driver side. Make sure the connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. Repeat on the passenger side using the harness end with the green wire.
Drilling may be required to create a ground point for the white ground wire. If a suitable existing screw with nut is not available in the vehicle frame near the taillight connector, you will need to drill a 3/32" pilot hole for the provided screw. Before drilling, check for miscellaneous items behind or under any surface to avoid damage and personal injury.
The harness is rated for Signal Circuits at 3.0 amps per side and Tail/Running Circuits at 6.0 amps total. Do not exceed these ratings or the tow vehicle lamp load rating, whichever is lower. Exceeding the product rating can cause loss of warranty, overheating and potential fire.
The battery connection must be fuse-protected with a 10-amp maximum fuse. Do not exceed this rating. Exceeding the product rating can cause loss of warranty, overheating and potential fire.
Locate a flat spot inside the vehicle near the taillight and adhere the black converter box using the provided double-sided tape. The converter box should be positioned so that the wiring can be routed cleanly and the box is secure.
When in use, route the 4-flat to the center of the vehicle and out of the trunk. When not in use, roll it up and store in a convenient, out-of-the-way location inside the trunk. Secure any loose wires with the provided cable ties.
After installation is complete and all items have been reinstalled, test for proper function by using a test light or by connecting a properly wired trailer. All steps must be followed to ensure the wiring harness functions properly.
Install the provided 4-flat dust cover to help prevent corrosion. This should be done after reconnecting the negative battery terminal and completing all other installation steps.
The custom wiring harness has a yellow wire end for the driver side and a green wire end for the passenger side. Insert the yellow wire end between the separated connectors on the driver side, and the green wire end on the passenger side.
The white wire is the ground wire. It should be secured to a suitable grounding point near the taillight connector using the provided ring terminal and screw. The grounding point should be an existing screw with nut in the vehicle frame, or a 3/32" pilot hole that you drill in a rust-free, clean area.
The black converter box is part of the custom wiring harness system. It should be mounted on a flat spot inside the vehicle near the taillight using the provided double-sided tape. The converter box processes the signal from the vehicle's taillight wiring to provide power to the trailer connector.
Exceeding the product rating (Signal Circuits 3.0 amps per side, Tail/Running Circuits 6.0 amps total) or the tow vehicle lamp load rating, whichever is lower, can cause loss of warranty, overheating and potential fire. Do not exceed these ratings under any circumstances.
Yes, the Curt 56257 is designed for Chevrolet Captiva Sport and compatible SUVs, Mini and Full-Sized Vans (S-class). For other vehicles, check with the manufacturer.
Yes, disconnect the negative battery terminal before starting installation. Reconnect it after all installation steps are complete.
Drilling may be required to create a ground point if no existing screw with nut is available in the vehicle frame. If needed, drill a 3/32" pilot hole. Always check for hidden items before drilling.
The battery connection must use a 10-amp maximum fuse. Do not exceed this rating as it can cause overheating and fire.
Signal Circuits: 3.0 amps per side. Tail/Running Circuits: 6.0 amps total. Do not exceed these ratings or the vehicle's lamp load rating, whichever is lower.
