Chrysler’s Stow’ N Go Seating is a unique feature on Pacificas and Grand Caravans that lets you fold the second and third rows into bins under the floor. The design makes more space for cargo if the seats are retracted. When not in use, these compartments can provide storage for other items.Â
The Stow’ N Go bins are under the floor mat in front of each row. To access the compartments, you simply disengage the lock rod and pull on the handle near the seat. The hatch will open easily, though you may need to slide the nearby chair forward if it blocks the path.Â
To use the Stow’ N Go feature, you first need to ensure the front rows are far enough forward. You then have to fold the armrests and remove any loose items that may block the process. There is a strap on the bottom of each seat or bench section. When you pull on it, the chair folds down until you can comfortably close the hatch and replace the mat.Â
When you need the seat again, you simply open the compartment and pull on the same strap until the chair comes up and clicks into place.Â

Your tires are the only parts of your vehicle that come into direct contact with the road. They experience ongoing wear and tear and need to be maintained for both performance and safety.Â
Ideally, you will inspect your tires monthly. However, if you drive regularly, especially on uneven roads or a cold climate, you should check them once every two weeks. Below are some of the things to consider while examining the wheels.Â
Tires can suffer from one of three problems that can cause excess and uneven wear and tear:Â
Over-inflation
Under-inflationÂ
Poor wheel alignment
Over-inflation makes the middle wear faster, but insufficient air pressure causes the edges to age more quickly. Poor wheel alignment diminishes the treads on one side of the tire while leaving the other looking new (because it is not actually contacting the road).Â
Rotating and Wheel Alignment
Your front and rear tires wear down at different rates, so it’s a good idea to visit a service centre to rotate them every 8,000 km to get the most life out of them. You should also have your wheels aligned after 20,000 kilometres, or if you ever notice that the steering is not straight.Â
