Certification/Tire Label
This label shows the GVWR (Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating) and both
front and rear GAWR (Gross Axle
Weight Rating).
Never exceed the Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating or the Gross Axle
Weight Ratings.
The label is located below the door
lock mechanism on the rear frame
of the left front door.
The Gross Vehicle Weight Rating is
the maximum permissible loaded
weight of the vehicle. It includes
the weight of the vehicle, all occu-
pants, fuel and cargo, as well as
the weight of the trailer tongue if
you are pulling a trailer.
Using heavier suspension compo-
nents for extra durability might
not change your weight rating.
Ask your dealer to help you load
your vehicle the right way.
Section 3
Maximum Front and Rear Axle
Weights
The label also shows the maximum
weight that the front axle can
carry (the front Gross Axle Weight
Rating) and the maximum weight
that the rear axle can carry (the
rear Gross Axle Weight Rating).
• The weight of the cargo load
must be properly distributed
over both the front and rear
axles.
• The weight of the load must be
distributed equally on both
sides of the center line.
If you are unsure of your vehicle's
front, rear or total weight, weigh
the vehicle at a weigh station. Your
dealer can assist you with this.
