FUEL TANK CAPACITY/FUEL INFO
Your vehicle has an 18.6 gallon (70.4L) fuel tank capacity. We recommend regular unleaded gasoline
with a pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87. We do not recommend fuels with an octane rating below
87. For vehicles with EcoBoost engines or to provide improved performance, we recommend premium
fuel for severe duty usage such as trailer tow. Do not use E85 fuels because your vehicle was not
designed to run on fuels with more than 15% ethanol.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM
Your vehicle displays a low tire pressure warning light in your instrument cluster if one or more
of your tires are significantly under-inflated. If this happens, stop and check your tires as soon as
possible. Inflate them to the proper pressure. Refer to the Wheels and Tires chapter of your Owner’s
Manual for more information.
