Roof Rack System - Chevrolet 2007 HH7 Owner's Manual

Roof Rack System

Your vehicle may be equipped with a roof rack
system.
CAUTION:
{
If you try to carry something on top of
your vehicle that is longer or wider than
the luggage carrier — like paneling,
plywood, a mattress and so forth — the
wind can catch it as you drive along.This
can cause you to lose control. What you
are carrying could be violently torn off, and
this could cause you or other drivers to
have a collision, and of course damage
your vehicle. You may be able to carry
something like this inside. But, never carry
something longer or wider than the
luggage carrier on top of your vehicle.
