WARNING - Rollover
This multi-purpose passenger vehicle is
defined as a Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV).

a seat belt. There are steps that a driver
can make to reduce the risk of a rollover.
If at all possible, avoid sharp turns or
abrupt maneuvers, do not load your roof
rack with heavy cargo, and never modify
your vehicle in any way.
