Maintenance when Trailer
Towing

The vehicle needs service more
often when pulling a trailer. See

Maintenance Schedule on
page 11-3

. Things that are

especially important in trailer
operation are automatic
transmission fluid, engine oil, axle
lubricant, belts, cooling system, and
brake system. It is a good idea to
inspect these before and during
the trip.

Check periodically to see that all
hitch nuts and bolts are tight.

Trailer Towing

Do not tow a trailer during break-in.
See

New Vehicle Break-In on

page 9-20

for more information.

{

Warning

The driver can lose control when
pulling a trailer if the correct
equipment is not used or the
vehicle is not driven properly. For
example, if the trailer is too
heavy, the brakes may not work
well

—

or even at all. The driver

and passengers could be

(Continued)

Warning (Continued)

seriously injured. The vehicle may
also be damaged; the resulting
repairs would not be covered by
the vehicle warranty. Pull a trailer
only if all the steps in this section
have been followed. Ask your
dealer for advice and information
about towing a trailer with the
vehicle.

Notice:

Pulling a trailer

improperly can damage the
vehicle and result in costly
repairs not covered by the vehicle
warranty. To pull a trailer
correctly, follow the advice in this
section and see your dealer for
important information about
towing a trailer with the vehicle.

To identify the trailering capacity of
the vehicle, read the information in

“

Weight of the Trailer

”

that appears

later in this section.
