Driving on Uneven Road
Your vehicle's suspension and underbody can be damaged if driven on
rough/uneven roads
or over speed bumps at excessive speeds. Use care and reduce speed when
traveling on
rough/uneven roads or over speed bumps.
Use care not to damage the vehicle's underbody, bumpers or muffler(s) when
driving under
the following conditions:
- Ascending or descending a slope with a sharp transition angle.
- Ascending or descending a driveway or trailer ramp with a sharp transition angle.

Your vehicle is equipped with low profile tires allowing class-leading
performance and
handling. As a result, the sidewall of the tires are very thin and the tires and
wheels can be
damaged if driven through potholes or on rough/uneven roads at excessive speeds.
Use
care and reduce speed when traveling on rough/uneven roads or through potholes.
