Dos and Don’ts on towing with a sedan

Towing with a Toyota sedan is a little different than towing with a Toyota truck and SUV. Our N Charlotte Toyota experts have dos and don’ts for towing. Here’s the breakdown.

Do check your manual: The first thing you’ll want to do before even considering towing anything on your Toyota is check the owner’s manual to see what the maximum towing capacity is.

Do the math: If you’re considering towing a four-wheeler, you’ll need to calculate the total weight you’ll be pulling. That includes what’s inside your four-wheeler.

Do use the proper equipment: Also, you’ll need a Class I or Class II hitch – we recommend talking to our Charlotte Toyota service advisor about what’s best for you.

Do practice: Before you start, you’ll need to practice the towing and driving with what you’re carrying. Be sure to practice turning, braking, parking, and changing lanes so you can ensure your safety on the road.

Do have extra braking space: When you’re towing heavy, your car’s brakes work harder, so make sure to leave enough space when you’re braking. Essentially, don’t hit the brakes at the last second!

Don’t overload: Finally, if you overload you can expect your engine and N Charlotte Toyota’s frame to have some damage.
