However you define adventure -- whether it's climbing onto the back of a mountain bike, hunting from the top of a tree stand or camping with the family a long way from nowhere -- CURT class 1 hitches provide a light-duty towing receiver to help you Bring It. Each is made to fit a specific vehicle, providing easier installation, a better fit and optimal towing capacity. Custom class 1 trailer hitches are available for a variety of smaller vehicle types, including the compact car, crossover, minivan and small SUV. This particular class 1 hitch is designed to be a custom hitch for certain years of the Volkswagen Passat and CC (to verify vehicle compatibility, see the CURT application guide at curtmfg.com). Tested in accordance with SAE J684, it offers a weight carrying capacity of 2,000 lbs. GTW and 200 lbs. TW. It is equipped with 1-1/4" receiver tube opening to accept a ball mount shank or other hitch mount. This class 1 hitch also comes with all necessary mounting hardware. With its lightweight design and smaller receiver tube size, a class 1 hitch is especially useful for adding cargo space with a hitch-mounted bike rack or cargo carrier. They can also typically be used to tow small trailers such as a utility trailer, kayak trailer or teardrop camper (never exceed the lowest weight capacity of any towing component; i.e. the vehicle, hitch, trailer, etc). Though CURT class 1 trailer hitches are only intended for light-duty towing, we apply the same principles of quality as we do to the rest of our rear mount hitches. Each class 1 hitch is made with hands-on engineering, high-strength steel and precise welding. We use a co-cured finish of liquid A-coat, inside and out, and durable black powder coat to provide a lasting defense against rust, chips and UV rays.
Trailer hitch weight ratings are limited to vehicle manufacturer's stated capacities
Not compatible for use with vertical hanging bicycles (bike racks that require the bicycles to be hung / mounted vertically)
Includes installation hardware

However, you must confirm that your vehicle's underbody panel can be removed and reinstalled, and that the fascia and underbody panel can be trimmed as required. Consult your vehicle owner's manual for underbody panel removal options.
Curt ballmount #55001 or #45501 are designed for use with this hitch. These are sold separately and must be ordered if not already in your possession.
The kit includes: 2× 7/16-14 UNC grade 8 bolts (part 10-10281), 2× square hole spacers 0.250 × 1.00 × 2.50 inches (CM-SP11), 2× 7/16-14 UNC grade 8 serrated flange nuts (20-00103), 2× M8×1.25 hex cap screws grade 10.9 (10-10417), 1× 7/16-inch fishwire (7_16 FISHWIRE), 2× 5/16-inch lock washers (30-00219), and 2× 5/16-inch flat washers (30-00195).
The manual specifies that a torx head socket or driver is needed to remove the underbody panel fasteners, and an 8mm hex socket or wrench is required to remove the exhaust hanger bracket bolts. A drill with appropriate bits is needed for drilling passenger side frame rail holes. A torque wrench capable of measuring in lb-ft is required for final fastener tightening. The manual does not specify other tools required.
Yes. Step 1 requires removal of the underbody panel by removing 5 torx head fasteners from the passenger side.

The panel must be reinstalled or trimmed after hitch installation (Step 9).
Yes. Step 2 requires removal of 2 eight-millimetre hex bolts from the exhaust hanger bracket on the driver side. The hitch is then sandwiched between this bracket and the vehicle frame (Step 6), and the bracket is reinstalled with the supplied fasteners.
Yes. Drilling is required. Step 4 requires you to use the hitch as a template to mark and drill passenger side frame rail holes. The manual emphasizes checking that the hitch is square on the vehicle before drilling. Exact hole sizes are not specified in the manual.
Yes. Step 3 requires marking and trimming the fascia panel. The trim diagram shows approximate dimensions: trim 1.50 inches on the top, 3.25 inches in the centre, and 1.50 inches on the bottom.

Step 9 requires marking and trimming the underbody panel to fit, then reinstalling it if required. The trim diagram shows approximate dimensions of 6.00 inches for the underbody panel trim. The manual states dimensions are approximate and you must confirm fit prior to trimming. Use ribs of the panels as cutting guides when possible.
All 8-millimetre fasteners must be torqued to 23 lb-ft. All 7/16-inch fasteners must be torqued to 59 lb-ft. This applies to the M8×1.25 hex cap screws and the 7/16-14 UNC bolts respectively.

However, you must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower. Consult your Volkswagen owner's manual for your specific vehicle's towing limits.
All non-trailer loads applied to this hitch must be supported by auxiliary stabilizing straps. Failure to properly support non-trailer loads will void the product warranty.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure that all fasteners are tight and that all structural components are sound. The manual does not specify a maintenance interval, so consult your vehicle owner's manual or contact Curt technical support at 877-287-8634 for recommended inspection frequency.
