To complete a proper tow job with your Kia, you need to ensure there’s a strong and secure connection between your vehicle and the item you’re towing. That’s where the trailer hitch comes in. Its purpose is to allow the vehicle to pull the attached load securely. But you shouldn’t just go with any aftermarket option. Opt for a genuine hitch from Kia for superior integration, trusted quality, and access to an impressive warranty. Continue reading with the experts at Kitchener Kia to learn more.

1. Optimal Integration 

A Kia trailer hitch is designed to match the exact specifications of your vehicle. This will ensure the part seamlessly fits into the vehicle without needing modifications. Using a hitch from the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) will ensure a clean, factory-installed look. It will also offer easy compatibility with electronic features tied to trailer use. As aftermarket options might not be a perfect fit, any modification to its electrical component could cause functionality issues.

2. Trusted Quality 

Every Kia vehicle is crafted with the highest quality, and any repairs or additions to a Kia should match that quality. Installing a genuine Kia trailer hitch is crucial to ensure the continuation of performance and safety standards integrated in every vehicle. Our genuine Kia parts go through rigorous quality standards to ensure customers only get the best. Picking an aftermarket Kia trailer hitch won’t match our promise for quality

3. Warranty 

Another advantage of opting for a genuine Kia trailer hitch over an aftermarket option is warranty coverage. Kitchener Kia offers an extensive warranty ensuring everything is covered if problems arise, including a 5-year/100,000 km warranty covering virtually the entire vehicle. Coverage won’t apply to aftermarket trailer hitches, which can lead to added costs if a problem arises down the road. At Kitchener Kia, our ownership coverage also includes: 

  • 5-year/100,000 km - Powertrain Warranty covering the engine, transmission, axles, differentials and driveshafts.
