7-7. Tire Information (U.S.A.)
GCWR (Gross Combination Weight Rating) is the maximum allowable
weight of the vehicle - including all cargo and passengers - that the
vehicle can handle without risk ing damage. The GCW must never
exceed the GCWR.
WARNING
■Do not tow a trailer with this vehicle
Towing a trailer with this vehicle is dangerous because it has not been
designed to tow a trailer and do ing so will affect the drive system which
could result in vehicle damage.
■Overloaded Vehicle
Overloading a vehicle is dangerous. The results of overloading can
have serious consequences in terms of passenger safety. Too muc h
weight on a vehicle’s suspensi on system can cause spring or sho ck
absorber failure, brake failure, handling or steering problems, irregular
tire wear, tire failu re or other damage.
Overloading makes a vehicle harder to drive and control. It als o
increases the distance required for stopping. In cases of serio us over-
loading, brakes can fail completely, particularly on steep grad es. The
load a tire will carry safely is a combination of the size of t he tire, its load
range, and corresponding inflation pressure.
Never overload the vehicle and always observe the vehicle’s wei ght rat-
ings from the vehicle’s Safety C ertification and Tire and Load Informa-
tion labels.
■Never Exceed Axle Weight Rating Limits
Exceeding the Safety Certification Label axle weight rating lim its is dan-
gerous and could result in death or serious injury as a result of substan-
dard vehicle handling, performance, engine, transmission and/or
structural damage, serious damage to the vehicle, or loss of control.
Always keep the vehicle within the axle weight rating limits.
■Never Exceed GVWR or GAWR Specifications
Exceeding the GVWR or the GAWR specified on the certification l abel is
dangerous. Exceeding any vehicle rating limitation could result in a seri-
ous accident, injury, or damage to the vehicle.
Do not use replacement tires with lower load carrying capacities than
the originals because they may lower the vehicle’s GVWR and GAW R
limitations. Replacement tires with a higher limit than the ori ginals do
not increase the GVWR and GAWR limitations. Never exceed the
GVWR or the GAWR specified on the certification label.
