WARNING
 Overloading your vehicle can
cause heat buildup in your
vehicle's tires and possible
tire failure that could lead to a
crash.
 Overloading your vehicle can
cause increased stopping dis-
tances that could lead to a
crash.
 A crash resulting from poor
handling, vehicle damage, tire
failure, or increased stopping
distances could result in seri-
ous injury or death.
WARNING
- Loose cargo
Items you carry inside your
vehicle can strike and injure
occupants in a sudden stop or
turn, or in a crash.
 Put items in the cargo area of
your vehicle. Try to spread the
weight evenly.
 Never stack items, like suit-
cases, inside the vehicle
above the tops of the seats.
 Do not leave an unsecured
child restraint in your vehicle.
 When you carry something
inside the vehicle, secure it.
 Do not drive with a seat folded
down unless necessary.
CAUTION
 Overloading your vehicle may
cause damage. Repairs would
not be covered by your warran-
ty. Do not overload your vehicle.
 Using heavier suspension com-
ponents to get added durability
might not change your weight
ratings. Ask your dealer to help
you load your
vehicle the right
way.
