Loading the Vehicle
It is very important to know how much weight the
vehicle can carry. This weight is called the vehicle
capacity weight and includes the weight of all
occupants, cargo, and all nonfactory-i nstalled
options. Two labels on the vehicle show how
much weight it was designed to carry, the
Tire and Loading Information label and the
Certification/Tire label.
{
WARNING:
Do not load the vehicle any heavier than
the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR),
or either the maximum front or rear Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). If you do, parts
on the vehicle can break, and it can change
the way the vehicle handles. These could
cause you to lose control and crash.
Also, overloading can shorten the life
of the vehicle.
