Towing Information: Service and Repair
-
Proper lifting and towing are necessary to prevent damage to the vehicle. State and local laws must be followed.
-
A towed vehicle usually should have its front wheels off the ground. If excessive damage or other conditions prevent this, use wheel dollies.
-
When towing with the rear wheels on the ground, release the parking brake.
CAUTION:
-
Do not tow with sling-type equipment. This could damage your vehicle. Use wheel-lift or flatbed equipment.
-
Do not tow the vehicle backward with driving wheels on the ground. This may cause internal damage to the transaxle.
-
Do not use the hook loops under the front and rear for towing. They are designed ONLY for tying down the vehicle when it is being transported.
Using them for towing will damage the bumper.
