Maximum trailer towing speed is limited to 62 mph (100 km/h) unless local laws require a lower speed.
NOTE:
The trailer tongue weight must be consid-
ered as part of the combined weight of
occupants and cargo, and should never ex-
ceed the weight referenced on the Tire and
Loading Information placard. Refer to “Tires
– General Information” in “Starting and Op-
erating” for further information.
Trailer And Tongue Weight
Loads balanced over the wheels or heavier in
the rear can cause the trailer to sway severely
side to side which will cause loss of control of
the vehicle and trailer. Failure to load trailers
heavier in front is the cause of many trailer
accidents.
Never exceed the maximum tongue weight
stamped on your 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.
