If you put things inside your
vehicle — like suitcases, tools,
packages, or anything else, they
will go as fast as the vehicle
goes. If you have to stop or turn
quickly, or if there is a crash,
they will keep going.
{ CAUTION
Things you put inside your
vehicle can strike and injure
people in a sudden stop or
turn, or in a crash.
• Put things in the cargo
area of your vehicle. Try to
spread the weight evenly.
• Never stack heavier
things, like suitcases,
inside the vehicle so that
some of them are above
the tops of the seats.
(Continued)
CAUTION (Continued)
• Do not leave an unsecured
child restraint in your
vehicle.
• When you carry something
inside the vehicle, secure it
whenever you can.
• Do not leave a seat folded
down unless you need to.
