This section will guide you in the proper loading of your vehicle and/or trailer, to
keep your loaded vehicle weight within its design rating capability, with or without a
trailer. Properly loading your vehicle will provide maximum return of vehicle design
performance. Before loading your vehicle, familiarize yourself with the following
terms for determining your vehicle's weight ratings, with or without a trailer, from
the vehicle's Safety Certification Label and Tire and Load Information Label:
WARNING
Overloaded Vehicle.
Overloading a vehicle is dangerous. The results of overloading can have serious
consequences in terms of passenger sa fety. Too much weight on a vehicle's
suspension system can cause spring or shoc k absorber failure, brake failure, handling
or steering problems, irregular tire wear, tire failure or other damage.
Overloading makes a vehicle harder to drive and control. It also increases the
distance required for stopping. In cases of serious overloading , brakes can fail
completely, particularly on steep grades. The load a tire will carry safely is a
combination of the size of the tire, its load range, and corresponding inflation
pressure.
Never overload the vehicle and always observe the vehicle's weight ratings from the
vehicle's Safety Certification and Tire and Load Information labels.
Base Curb Weight is the weight of the ve hicle including a full tank of fuel and all
standard equipment. It does not include passengers, cargo, or optional
equipment.
Ve h i c l e C u r b We i g h t is the weight of your new vehicle when you picked it up from
your dealer plus any aftermarket equipment.
