Hi everyone. I finally had a hitch receiver installed on my 2024 RX 500h. I went with the Curt 13579 and it fits perfectly. The whole thing took about 30 minutes. The kick sensor doesn't work well but I don't care. I use this hitch for my Küat bike rack. Other than the hitch, I didn't need anything else, i.e., no adapters or extenders, etc. I included pictures here. Thanks.

Old thread, but curious your trailer hitch receiver.

How's it working out that you've gotten to use it?

How has it been not being able to use the kick sensor?

Any issues?

Cost?

2" receiver?

 

It is working great. I use my bike rack two times per week. I've had the kick sensor in other vehicle but frankly I always forgot that it was there and never used it. I just open the lift gate using the FOB. My bike rack is light enough that I always take it off when I'm done using it. To store the bike rack, I bought a hitch receiver that I installed on one wall of my garage and I hang my rack there when not using it. The whole thing, installation plus the hitch itself, cost me $609. Might seem pricey but to me it's been worth every penny. Lastly, at the time this car was new and the Lexus dealership didn't even know which hitch receiver to use or how to install it. They quoted me $2K!
