I just picked up my car last week, and pretty much immediately found out that Subaru does not have a tow hitch available for this model yet :/ Worse still, I couldn’t find an aftermarket hitch for this vehicle. I took it to a local hitch shop that said they’d look at it, and the hitch for the 2021 bolted right up no problem. Just FYI if you don’t have the time to wait for Subaru on this one like me.

I was actually looking here to see if Subaru had a 2" hitch for the wilderness that I could then use on my 2021 sport. I guess it's the other way around.

Yup, you should have no problem finding one specifically for your model. 👍

I just went to uhaul and got one mounted. I towed my 1969 camaro shell around no issue all in all about 2400 pounds and it was great
level 2
Yeah UHaul specifically told me they didn’t have a hitch for my vehicle and refused to see if another model year designated hitch would work :/

Be really careful towing anything with the CVT transmission in it.
level 2
I mean Subaru rates the towing capacity to 3000lbs. I don’t need to tow that much, but if something breaks they can fix it under warranty 🤷🏻♂️

That was my concern as well. Tell me more about your concerns with towing with the CVT, or where can I find more information about that?
level 2
I actually didn’t have any specific concerns about towing with the CVT. Extended warranty ftw 😅

I purchased the Genuine Subaru Trailer Hitch for the Wilderness when I purchased a few months ago from Subaru but have already sold my Wilderness. So, I have one for sale, in an unopened box. Located in NJ, willing to ship.
Feel free to text me if interested 86(3) three eight 1 niner 44 nine.

Any chance that you have the part number for the hitch? Is it a 1/4 inch or a 2 inch receiver?
We can't order a hitch for a 2022, but we had a part number that might make it possible.
