Vehicle Load Limits

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

installed options.

Two labels on the vehicle
show how much weight it
may properly carry, the Tire
and Loading Information label
and the Certification 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).
This can cause systems to
break and change the way the
vehicle handles. This could
cause loss of control and a
crash. Overloading can also
shorten the life of the vehicle.

Label Example

A vehicle-specific Tire and

will find the label attached
below the door lock post.
