Your vehicle will need to be serviced more often if you regularly pull a trailer. Important items to pay particular attention to include reduction gear fluid, axle lubricant and cooling system fluid. Brake condition is another important item to check frequently. Each item is covered in this manual, and the Index will help you find them quickly. If you are towing a trailer, it is a good idea to review these sections before starting your trip.

Do not forget to maintain your trailer and hitch as well. Make sure you are aware of the maintenance schedule specified for your trailer, and that you carry out its periodic checks. Preferably, conduct your checks at the start of each day's driving. Most importantly, all hitch nuts and bolts should be tight.
