CARGO AREA FEATURES
REAR CARGO TIE-DOWNS
To make it easier to secure your load, there are
hooks fixed to the floor (if equipped).
Rear Cargo Tie-Downs (Cargo Version)
Rear Cargo Tie-Downs (Passenger Version)
NOTE:
Power washing is not allowed inside the cargo
area.
ROOF RACK — IF EQUIPPED
The crossbars and siderails are designed to carry
weight on vehicles equipped with a luggage rack.
The load must not exceed 150 lb (68 kg), and
should be uniformly distributed over the luggage
rack crossbars.
NOTE:
If not equipped with crossbars, an authorized
dealer can order and install Mopar® crossbars
built specifically for this roof rack system.
Distribute cargo weight evenly on the roof rack
crossbars. The roof rack does not increase the
total load carrying capacity of the vehicle. Be sure
the total load of cargo inside the vehicle plus that
on the external rack does not exceed the maximum
vehicle load capacity.
WARNING!
To help protect against personal injury, passen-
gers should not be seated in the rear cargo
area. The rear cargo space is intended for load
carrying purposes only, not for passengers, who
should sit in seats and use seat belts.
Cargo tie-down hooks are not safe anchors for
a child seat tether strap. In a sudden stop or
accident, a hook could pull loose and allow the
child seat to come loose. A child could be
badly injured. Use only the anchors provided
for child seat tethers.
The weight and position of cargo and
passengers can change the vehicle’s center of
gravity and vehicle handling. To avoid loss of
control resulting in personal injury, follow these
guidelines for loading your vehicle:
Do not carry loads which exceed the load
limits described on the label attached to the
left door or left door center pillar.
Always place cargo evenly on the cargo floor.
Put heavier objects as low and as far forward
as possible.
Place as much cargo as possible in front of the
rear axle. Too much weight or improperly
placed weight over or behind the rear axle can
cause the rear of the vehicle to sway.
Do not pile luggage or cargo higher than the
top of the seatback. This could impair visibility
or become a dangerous projectile in a sudden
stop or accident.
WARNING!
