How to load your trunk without scratching the rear bumper?

1. Heavy Suitcases

• Lift your suitcases instead of dragging them across the rear bumper.
• Place them directly into the trunk without resting them on the bumper edge.
• Place something soft on the trunk floor before loading your luggage.

 

 

 

2. Baby Stroller

• Fold the stroller before placing it in the trunk.
