hydraulic brake lines. It can overload your
brake system and cause it to fail. You might
not have brakes when you need them and

distance. When towing, you should allow for
additional space between your vehicle and the
vehicle in front of you. Failure to do so could
result in an accident.

this could lead to accelerated brake lining wear,
higher brake pedal effort, and longer stopping
distances.

rolling down an incline while resuming accel-
eration, manually activate the trailer brake or
apply more vehicle brake pressure prior to
releasing the brake pedal.

down, stop at the nearest safe location, and
adjust the trailer load to eliminate trailer sway.
