Buick Encore: Certification/Tire Label
.gif)
Label Example
A vehicle-specific Certification/
Tire label is attached to the
center pillar (B-pillar).
The label may show the size of
the vehicle's original tires and
the inflation pressures needed to
obtain the gross weight capacity
of the vehicle. The label shows
the gross weight capacity of the
vehicle. This is called the Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR).
The GVWR includes the weight
of the vehicle, all occupants,
fuel, and cargo.
The Certification/Tire label may
also show the maximum weights
for the front and rear axles,
called the Gross Axle Weight
Rating (GAWR). To find out the
actual loads on the front and
rear axles, weigh the vehicle at
a weigh station. Your dealer can
help with this. Be sure to spread
the load equally on both sides of
the centerline.
Caution
Overloading the vehicle may
cause damage. Repairs would not
be covered by the vehicle
warranty. Do not overload the
vehicle.
Warning
Things you put inside the
vehicle can strike and injure
people in a sudden stop or
turn, or in a crash.
- Put things in the cargo
area of the 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.
- Do not leave an
unsecured child restraint
in the vehicle.
- When you carry
something inside the
vehicle, secure it
whenever you can.
- Do not leave a seat
folded down unless you
need to.
