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 Mazda CX-5 (see application info to verify vehicle compatibility). It provides a weight carrying capacity of 4,000 lbs. GTW and 600 lbs. TW. 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.
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)

Yes, the 2013-2025 Mazda CX-5 Excluding Diesel CURT Class 3 Trailer Hitch, 2" Receiver + 2" Ball + 1-7/8" Ball Kit (Part #CHD-13315-001) is designed to fit the 2013-2025 Mazda CX-5.
The 2013-2025 Mazda CX-5 Excluding Diesel CURT Class 3 Trailer Hitch, 2" Receiver + 2" Ball + 1-7/8" Ball Kit (Part #CHD-13315-001) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
Yes, CURT part number 13315 is designed for 2013 and later Mazda CX-5 Crossover models. The hitch is a weight-carrying style with a maximum trailer weight capacity of 4,000 lbs and tongue weight capacity of 600 lbs.
The CURT 13315 is rated for a maximum trailer weight of 4,000 lbs and tongue weight of 600 lbs when used as a weight-carrying hitch. However, you must never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower than the hitch rating.
No, drilling is not required. The CURT 13315 uses existing factory frame rail mounting locations and weld nuts. The installation uses a fishwire technique to route hardware through access holes in the frame rails without drilling.
Required tools are: 3/4" and 19mm sockets, ratchet, torque wrench, flathead screwdriver, pliers, safety glasses, masking tape, and a pry bar. Safety glasses must be worn at all times during installation.
Two people may be required to ease installation. If you are hesitant to undertake this task on your own, CURT recommends contacting an authorized CURT installer for additional assistance.
Yes, if a plastic underbody panel is present under the rear bumper, it must be removed. Remove the two plastic fasteners using a flathead screwdriver. Return the panel and fasteners to the vehicle owner after installation.
Yes, the exhaust must be temporarily lowered. Remove two to four of the rearmost rubber exhaust hangers (the exact number depends on your vehicle). Leave the rubber hangers attached to the vehicle; do not remove them completely.
Remove any plastic insert and/or electrical harness clip between the hitch mounting locations on the passenger side frame rail. On the driver side, unfasten the electrical harness clip on the outside of the frame rail and follow the harness to unfasten the nearest clip towards the center of the vehicle. These must be re-secured after the hitch is positioned.
The fishwire technique is used to route 1/2" carriage bolts with CM-SP12 spacers through the frame rail access holes. Thread the fishwire through the access hole and out the rearmost mounting location in the frame rail, leaving the hardware fully inside the frame rail with the fishwire attached. The fishwire is then threaded through the hitch mounting holes, and the hardware is pulled into position before the fishwire is removed.
Tape four 1/2" flat washers into position on the inside of the hitch side plates before beginning the fishwire process. When inserting M12 bolts, ensure the tooth side of the conical toothed washers are against the hitch, and the 1/2" flat washers are clamped in position between the hitch and frame rail.
Torque all M12 hardware (part number 10-10277) to 86.2 ft-lbs. Torque all 1/2" hardware (part number 10-10287 bolts and part number 20-00062 nuts) to 110 ft-lbs.
After pulling the 1/2" hardware into position and removing the fishwire, wrap cable tie(s) around the hitch mounting plate(s) and harness. Pull the cable ties tight and trim any excess.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. This is a critical maintenance step to ensure safe towing operation.
Safety glasses must be worn at all times while installing this product. Additionally, never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity when using the hitch.
The kit includes: 3 M12x1.25 hex head cap screws (part 10-10277), 2 1/2-13 UNC carriage bolts (part 10-10287), 2 1/2-13 UNC serrated flange nuts (part 20-00062), 4 1/2" flat washers (part 30-00133), 3 1/2" split-cone washers (part 30-00149), 2 square hole spacers (part CM-SP12), 2 lengths of 1/2" fishwire (part 1_2 FISHWIRE), and 2 cable ties 3/16" x 8" (part 600043).
Yes, remove the tape on the side of the vehicle frame rails to expose the mounting locations. Also trim any excess seam seal if it will interfere with the hitch installation.
