Consumer information and Reporting safety defects/Tire information
& Tire care – maintenance and
safety practices.
Check on a daily basis that the
tires are free from serious damage,
nails, and stones. At the same time,
check the tires for abnormal wear. .
Inspect the tire tread regularly
and replace the tires before their
tread wear indicators become visi-
ble. When a tire ’ streadwear
indicator becomes visible, the tire
is worn beyond the acceptable limit
and must be replaced immediately.
With a tire in this condition, driving
at even low speeds in wet weather
can cause the vehicle to hydro-
plane. Possible resulting loss of
vehiclecontrolcanleadtoan
accident. .
Replace any damaged or un-
evenly worn tires at the time of
rotation. For information about the
tire rotation order, refer to “ Tire
rotation ” F 11-36 .
After tire rotation,
adjust the tire pressures and make
sure the wheel nuts are correctly
tightened. For information about the tightening torque and tighten-
ing sequence for the wheel nuts,
refer to “ Flat tires ” F 9-4 .
& Vehicle load limit – how to
determine
The load capacity of your vehicle is
determined by weight, not by avail-
able cargo space. The load limit of
your vehicle is shown on the
vehicle placard attached to the
driver ’ s side B-pillar. Locate the
statement “ The combined weight
of occupants and cargo should
never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs ”
on your vehicle ’ s placard.
Thevehicleplacardalsoshows
seating capacity of your vehicle.
The total load capacity includes the
total weight of driver and all pas-
sengers and their belongings, any
cargo, any optional equipment such
as a roof rack or bike carrier, etc.
Therefore cargo capacity can be
calculated by the following method.
Cargo capacity = Load limit − (total weight of occupants + total weight
of optional equipment)
For information about vehicle load-
ing, refer to “ Loading your vehicle ”
