Liftgate/Trunk Lid

WARNING

Never allow a person to ride in the luggage
compartment/trunk:

Allowing a person to ride in the luggage
compartment/trunk is dangerous. The
person in the luggage compartment/trunk
could be seriously injured or killed during
sudden braking or a collision.

Do not drive with the liftgate/trunk lid
open:

Exhaust gas in the cabin of a vehicle is
dangerous. An open liftgate/trunk lid in a
moving vehicle will cause exhaust gas to be
drawn into the cabin. This gas contains CO
(carbon monoxide), which is colorless,
odorless, and highly poisonous, and it can
cause loss of consciousness and death.
Moreover, an open liftgate/trunk lid could
cause occupants to fall out in an accident.

Do not stack or leave loaded luggage
unsecured in the luggage compartment:

Otherwise, the luggage may move or
collapse, resulting in injury or an accident.
In addition, do not load luggage higher
than the seatbacks. It may affect the side or
rear field of view.
