General Towing Information

dealer or trailering dealer for assistance with preparing the vehicle to tow a trailer.
Read the entire section before towing a trailer.

Warning

electricity discharge from the container can ignite the fuel vapor. You or others
could be badly burned and the vehicle could be damaged...

You can lose control when towing a trailer if the correct equipment is
not used or the vehicle is not driven properly. For example, if the trailer is too
heavy or the trailer brakes are inadequate for the load, the vehicle may not stop
as expected...
