Driving Tips

Driving on Uneven Road

Your vehicle's suspension and underbody can be damaged if driven on rough/uneven roads 

or over speed bumps at excessive speeds. Use care and reduce speed when traveling on 

rough/uneven roads or over speed bumps.

Use care not to damage the vehicle's underbody, bumpers or muffler(s) when driving under 

the following conditions:



 Ascending or descending a slope with a sharp transition angle



 Ascending or descending a driveway or trailer ramp with a sharp transition angle

This vehicle is equipped with low profile tires allowing class-leading performance and 

handling. As a result, the sidewall of the tires are very thin and the tires and wheels can be 

damaged if driven through potholes or on rough/uneven roads at excessive speeds. Use care 

and reduce speed when traveling on rough/uneven roads or through potholes.
