Towing Information: Service and Repair

Towing

If the vehicle needs to be towed, call a professional towing service. Never tow the vehicle behind another vehicle with a rope or chain. It is very
dangerous.

Emergency Towing

There are three popular methods of towing a vehicle.

Flat-bed Equipment - The operator loads the vehicle on the back of a truck. This is the best way of transporting the vehicle.

To accommodate flat-bed equipment, the vehicle is equipped with a front tie down hook slots (A), rear towing hook (B), and rear tie down hook slots
(C).

The towing hook can be used with a winch to pull the vehicle onto the truck, and the tie down hook slots can be used to secure the vehicle to the truck.

Front Towing Hook Installation

The detachable front towing hook is only for towing a very short distance, such as freeing the car. The hook mounts to the anchor in the front bumper.

NOTE:

-

To avoid damage to the vehicle, use the towing hook for straight flat ground towing only. Do not tow on an angle.

-

The tow hook should not be used to tow the vehicle onto a flat-bed. Do not use it as a tie down.
