Secondary Latch System

Your vehicle has an underbody mounted tire hoist
assembly equipped with a secondary latch system. It’s
designed to stop the compact spare tire from suddenly
falling off your vehicle if the cable holding the spare tire is
damaged. For the secondary latch to work, the tire must
be stowed with the valve stem pointing down. See
“Storing the Spare Tire and Tools” later in this section for
instructions on storing the spare tire correctly.

side of you as you pull the jack out from the
spare.
