Understanding the Vehicle
(6) If your vehicle will be towing a
trailer, load from your trailer will be
transferred to your vehicle. Consult
this manual to determine how this
reduces the available cargo and
luggage load capacity of your vehicle.
Tires
Driving over rough or damaged
road surfaces, as well as debris,
curbs and other obstacles can cause
serious damage to wheels, tires, and
suspension parts.
This is more likely to occur with
low-profile tires, which provide less
cushioning between the wheel and the
road.
Be careful to avoid road hazards and
reduce your speed, especially if your
vehicle is equipped with low profile
tires.
WARNING!
Overloading of your tires is
dangerous. Overloading can cause
tire failure, affect vehicle handling,
and increase the stopping distance.
Use tires of the recommended load
capacity for your vehicle. Never
overload them.
Tire Pressure
Proper tire inflation pressure
is essential for safety and best
performance of your vehicle. The tire
pressure monitoring system “TPMS”
setup on the vehicle (see “Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)” in this
section) may alert the driver about
insufficient tire pressure even though
the driver is responsible for checking
regularly the tire pressure.
Radial tires fitted on the vehicle may
look properly inflated even when
they actually are under inflated. Do
not make a visual judgment when
determining proper inflation. Three
primary driving aspects are affected by
improper tire pressure:
Safety
WARNING!
• Improperly inflated tires are
dangerous and can cause collisions.
•
Under-inflation increases tire flexing
and can result in tire overheating
and failure.
• Over-inflation reduces a tire's ability
to cushion shock. Objects on the
road and potholes can cause damage
that result in tire failure.
•
Over-inflated or under-inflated tires
can affect vehicle handling and can
fail suddenly, resulting in loss of
vehicle control.
•
Unequal tire pressures can cause
steering problems.
• Unequal tire pressures from one side
of the vehicle to the other can cause
the vehicle to drift to the right or
left.
• Always drive with each tire inflated
to the recommended cold tire
inflation pressure.
Economy
Improper inflation pressures may
cause uneven wear patterns to
develop across the tire tread. These
abnormal wear patterns will reduce
tread life resulting in a need for earlier
tire replacement. Under-inflation
also increases tire rolling resistance
resulting in higher fuel consumption.
Ride comfort and vehicle stability
Proper tire inflation contributes to
a comfortable ride. Over-inflation
produces a jarring and uncomfortable
ride.
