Your vehicle does not come from
the factory fully equipped to tow.
However, you can contact your
local Ford dealer to get the proper
towing equipment. Do not tow a
trailer until your vehicle has been
driven at least 3 000 km
(2 000 miles).
Towing a trailer places an
additional load on your vehicle's
engine, transaxle, brakes, tires and
suspension. Inspect these
components carefully after towing.
Do not tow a trailer when
using a temporary spare
tire.
Your loaded trailer should weigh no
more than 454 kg (1 000 lbs.).
Do not exceed the GVWR
or the GAWR specified on
the Safety Compliance
Certification Label.
Towing trailers beyond the
maximum recommended
gross trailer weight could result
in engine damage, transmission/
axle damage, structural damage,
loss of control, and personal
injury.
