Things you put inside  your vehicle  can strike 
and  injure  people  in  a  sudden stop  or  turn,  or in 
a  crash. 
Put  things  in  the trunk  of your  vehicle. In a 
trunk,  put  them as  far  forward  as you  can. 
Try to spread  the  weight  evenly. 
Never stack heavier  things,  like  suitcases, 
inside  the vehicle 
so that  some  of them  are 
above  the tops  of the  seats. 
Don’t  leave  an unsecured  child  restraint in 
your  vehicle. 
When  you  carry something  inside  the 
vehicle,  secure  it whenever  you  can. 
Don’t  leave  a  seat folded  down  unless  you 
need  to. 
Towing  a Trailer 
I 
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. 
You  may  also  damage  your  vehicle;  the resulting 
repairs  would  not  be  covered  by  your  warranty. 
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. 
Do not  tow  a trailer  if your vehicle is equipped with the 
3800 L67 Supercharged  engine.
