Towing a trailer – HONDA 2010 Pilot User Manual
Page 438
The maximum allowable weight of
the trailer and everything in or on it
depends on the number of occupants
in your vehicle and the type of trailer
being towed (see page
).
Towing a trailer that is too heavy can
seriously affect your vehicle’s
handling and performance. It can
also damage the engine and
drivetrain.
Be sure to read the
section on page
if you plan to tow off paved
surfaces.
Your vehicle has been designed
primarily to carry passengers and
their cargo. You can also use it to
tow a trailer if you carefully observe
the load limits, use the proper
equipment, and follow the guidelines
in this section.
Avoid towing a trailer during your
vehicle’s first 600 miles (1,000 km)
(see page
).
