Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban 2007 Specifications download pdf (Page 380)

Q: What if I am driving across an incline that

is not too steep, but I hit some loose

gravel and start to slide downhill. What

should I do?

A: If you feel your vehicle starting to slide

sideways, turn downhill. This should help

straighten out the vehicle and prevent the side

slipping. However, a much better way to

prevent this is to get out and “walk the course”

so you know what the surface is like before

you drive it.

Stalling on an Incline

If your vehicle stalls when you are crossing an

incline, be sure you, and any passengers, get out

on the uphill side, even if the door there is

harder to open. If you get out on the downhill side

and the vehicle starts to roll over, you will be

right in its path.

If you have to walk down the slope, stay out of the

path the vehicle will take if it does roll over.

{CAUTION:

Getting out on the downhill (low) side of a

vehicle stopped across an incline is

dangerous. If the vehicle rolls over, you

could be crushed or killed. Always get out

on the uphill (high) side of the vehicle and

stay well clear of the rollover path.
