Subaru Outback (BR): Trailer towing
Your vehicle is designed and intended to be used primarily as a passenger-carrying
vehicle. Towing a trailer puts additional loads on your vehicle’s engine, drivetrain,
brakes, tires and suspension and has an adverse effect on fuel economy.
If you do decide to tow a trailer, your safety and satisfaction depend upon proper
use of correct equipment and cautious operation of your vehicle. Seek the advice
of your SUBARU dealer to assist you in purchasing a hitch and other necessary towing
equipment appropriate for your vehicle. In addition, be sure to follow the instructions
on correct installation and use provided by the trailer and other towing equipment
manufacturers.
SUBARU assumes no responsibility for injuries or vehicle damage that result from
trailer towing equipment, or from any errors or omissions in the instructions accompanying
such equipment or for your failure to follow the proper instructions.
