Although Torklift Central trailer hitches are both tested and rated for towing within the specific capacity label found on each trailer hitch. Torklift Central assumes no liability for vehicle manufacturers warranty due to the use of a Torklift Central trailer hitch being used for towing behind any vehicle or using the trailer hitch in a manner that it was not designed for. Although this specific trailer hitch has a load rating, which includes trailer tongue weight, and a trailer weight carrying capacity, Torklift Central is not responsible for the voiding of any warranty on any vehicle due to factory towing limitations. All vehicle warranties are the sole property and responsibility of the owner of the vehicle that the Torklift Central trailer hitch is installed upon. Torklift Central does not endorse towing behind any vehicle if the vehicles manufacturer states that towing is not recommended. Check your vehicle’s owner’s manual for the proper tow rating of your vehicle.

 

*WARNING* Your vehicle may have a lower tow rating than this trailer hitch. If your vehicle’s tow rating is less than the rated towing capacity on your Torklift Central trailer hitch, your trailer hitch capacity is limited to your vehicle’s factory rated towing capacity.

FOR EXAMPLE: the label on your Torklift Central trailer hitch states it's capacity is rated for 500 pounds tongue weight and 5,000 pounds towing weight. However your vehicle's factory rated towing capacity is limited to only 350 pounds tongue weight and 3,500 pounds towing weight. In this example your maximum towing capacity of your Torklift Central trailer hitch is limited to 350 pounds tongue weight and 3,500 pounds towing weight as stated by your vehicle’s maximum factory tow rating.

 

*DANGER* Never exceed your vehicle's manufacturer's recommended towing capacity which may be a lower rating than this trailer hitch

What about my vehicle manufacturer warranty?

"The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act makes it illegal for companies to void your warranty or deny coverage under the warranty simply because you used an aftermarket part." - Federal Trade Commission (FTC)

 

The FTC states that a consumer has the right to patronize independent retail stores and repair shops for parts and service without fear of voiding the new car warranty. The dealer/vehicle manufacturer has the right to deny a warranty repair but they must clearly and definitively demonstrate that the aftermarket part caused the problem.
