2023 Ford Expedition Owners Manual - Luggage Compartment Precautions

Luggage Compartment Precautions



WARNING:  Make sure that you properly secure objects in the luggage compartment. Failure to follow this instruction could result in personal injury in the event of a sudden stop or crash.    WARNING:  Do not place objects on the luggage cover. Failure to follow this instruction could result in personal injury or death in the event of a sudden stop or crash.    WARNING:  The appropriate loading capacity of your vehicle can be limited either by volume capacity (how much space is available) or by payload capacity (how much weight the vehicle should carry). Once you have reached the maximum payload of your vehicle, do not add more cargo, even if there is space available. Overloading or improperly loading your vehicle can contribute to loss of vehicle control and vehicle rollover.    WARNING:  Make sure that you fully close the liftgate to prevent exhaust fumes from entering your vehicle. If you are unable to fully close the liftgate, open the air vents or the windows to allow fresh air to enter your vehicle. Failure to follow this instruction could result in personal injury or death.    WARNING:  Do not exceed the maximum front and rear axle loads for your vehicle.

Note:   When loading long objects into your vehicle, for example pipes, timber or furniture, be careful not to damage the interior trim.
