NOTICE:
Pulling a trailer improperly can damage your vehicle and result
in costly repairs not covered
by
your warranty.
To
pull
a
trailer
correctly,
follow
the advice in this section, and see your
GM
dealer for important information about towing
a
trailer with
your vehicle.
Every vehicle
is
ready for some trailer towing.
If
it
was
built
with
trailering
options, as many are, it’s ready for heavier trailers. But trailering is different
than just driving your vehicle
by
itself. Trailering means changes
in
handling, durability, and fuel economy. Successful, safe trailering takes
correct equipment, and
it
has to be used properly.
That’s the reason for this section. In it are many time-tested, important
trailering tips and safety rules. Many of these are important for your safety
and that of your passengers.
So please read this section carefully before you
pull
a trailer.

You
Do
Decide
To
Pull
A
Trailer
If you do, here are some important points.
There are many different laws having to do
with
trailering. Make sure
your rig will be legal, not only where you live but also where you’ll
be
driving.
A
good source for this information can be state or provincial
police.
Consider using a sway control
with
a
utility
model
if
your trailer
will
weigh
3,000
pounds
(1
36
1
kg) or less, or
with
a wagon model
if
your
trailer
will
weigh
4,000
pounds
(1
800
kg) or less. You should always
use a sway control
with
a
utility model
if
your trailer
will
weigh more
than
3,000
pounds
(I
361
kg), or
with
a wagon model
if
your trailer
will
weigh more than
4,000
pounds
(1
800
kg).
You can ask
a
hitch dealer about sway controls.
Don’t tow a trailer at all during the first
500
miles
(800
km)
your
new
vehicle
is
driven. Your engine, axle or other parts could be damaged.
Then, during the first
500
miles
(800
km) that
you
tow
a
trailer, don’t
drive over
50
mph
(80
km/h)
and don’t make starts at
full
throttle. This
helps your engine and other parts of your vehicle wear
in
at the heavier
loads.
