Trailer And Tongue Weight
Never exceed the maximum tongue
weight stamped on your bumper or trailer
hitch.
Consider the following items when
computing the weight on the rear axle of
the vehicle:
The tongue weight of the trailer.
The weight of any other type of cargo
or equipment put in or on your vehicle.
The weight of the driver and all
passengers.
Note: Remember that everything put
into or on the trailer adds to the load on
your vehicle. Also, additional
factory-installed options or
dealer-installed options must be
considered as part of the total load on
your vehicle. Refer to the “Tire And
Loading Information” placard for the
maximum combined weight of occupants
and cargo for your vehicle.
Towing Requirements
To promote proper break-in of your new
vehicle drivetrain components, the
following guidelines are recommended:
Warning!
Improper towing can lead to a collision.
Follow these guidelines to make your trailer
towing as safe as possible:
Make certain that the load is secured in
the trailer and that it will not shift during
travel. When trailering cargo that is not fully
secured, dynamic load shifts can occur that
may be difficult for the driver to control. You
could lose control of your vehicle and have a
collision.
When hauling cargo, or towing a trailer, do
not overload your vehicle or trailer.
Overloading can cause a loss of control,
poor performance, or damage to brakes,
axle, engine, transmission, steering,
suspension, chassis structure, or tires.
