Towing a Trailer
If you don't use
the correct equipment
and
drive
properly, you can lose control when you pull
a
trailer. For example, if the trailer is
too
heavy, the
brakes
may
not work well
--
or even
at
all. You
and your passengers could be seriously injured.
Pull a trailer only if you have followed
all
the
steps in this section. Ask your dealer for advice
and information about towing a trailer with
your vehicle.
NOTICE:
Pulling a trailer improperly can damage your
vehicle and result in costly repairs not covered by
~
your warranty.
TO
pull a trailer correctly, follow
the advice in this part, and see your dealer for
important information about towing
a
trailer
with your vehicle.
~
~~
Your vehicle can tow a trailer. To identify what the
vehicle trailering capacity is for your vehicle, you
should read
the
information in "Weight
of the
Trailer''
that appears later in this section. But trailering is
different than just driving your vehicle by itself.
Trailering means changes in handling, durability and
fuel economy. Successful, safe trailering takes correct
equipment, and it has to be used properly.
