Default Trailer Hitch installer

I have a new Curt trailer hitch and although is just a bolt on device it needs some parts of the vehicle loosened in order to mount, which I am unable to do. For reference it is to be mounted to a Hyundai Palisade.
Anyone know of a local person or small business that will mount this hitch -- the online do-it-yourself estimate is about an hour.

Any local shop would do it for you and you would have a warranty should something fail, including the Hyundai dealer most likely. Question, where did you get the hitch from?

You may have some problems since you got it somewhere else. Call around.

Spent a long time calling around yesterday and no luck ! If I lived in Washington/Oregon I would have many good options, probably because of their outdoor lifestyle.
C'est Ca !

No it's probably because you bought the hitch online to save a few bucks. Like bringing your own burger to a restaurant and asking them to cook it for you. You took their profit margin out from underneath them.

I have never used Fruitland Park Trailers, but I'd give them a call.

I installed my hitch bought from Etrailer on my Mazda 3 last week . Not exactly easy since I don't have a lift so had to lay on the ground but technically not challenging at all.

Try Hilton auto repair.
