Investigation into the many facets of trailer towing has been undertaken at the Chrysler Engineering Proving Grounds. Areas delved into are temperature and structural effects on the car, as well as ride and handling of the car while towing a trailer. Findings have led Chrysler to extend its “5 and 50” warranty to cover a car towing a trailer if the trailer is within defined weight limits for the car chosen and the car is equipped with the proper towing package as recommended by Chrysler.
