Manual Description
The trailer hitch attachment can fail, causing the trailer to tear loose from the vehicle. In some areas, the speed limits for vehicles towing trailers are lower than for vehicles without trailers. If you tow a trailer, your vehicle may need maintenance more often because of the extra load it has to move.
This helps keep the trailer hitch from causing damage to your vehicle and to others if your vehicle is hit from behind. You may want to always carry the ball mount in the vehicle after it has been removed. The trailer hitch must be suitable for your vehicle and trailer and must be securely bolted to the appropriate place on the vehicle chassis.
Always check with the trailer hitch manufacturer to make sure that you are using the correct trailer hitch and carefully follow the hitch manufacturer's instructions. Never install a weight-distributing” or load-equalizing” trailer hitch on your vehicle. Do not use a bumper-mounted trailer hitch Never install a trailer hitch on the bumper or on the bumper attachments.
