Emergency Towing
Call a professional towing service if you need to tow your vehicle.
All models
Flat bed equipment
The operator loads your vehicle on the back of a truck.
This is the best way to transport your vehicle.
2WD models
Wheel lift equipment
The tow truck uses two pivoting arms that go under the front tires and lift them off the ground. The rear tires remain on the ground. This is an acceptable way to tow your vehicle.
Emergency Towing
NOTICE
Trying to lift or tow your vehicle by the bumpers will cause serious damage. The bumpers are not designed to support the vehicle's weight. Never tow your vehicle with just a rope or chain. It is very dangerous, since ropes or chains may shift from side to side or break.
If Your Vehicle Gets Stuck
For very short distances, such as freeing the vehicle, you can use the detachable towing hook that mounts on the anchors in the front and rear bumpers.
Front
1. Put cloth on the edge of the cover. Carefully pry with a small flat-tip screwdriver or a metal fingernail file to remove the cover.
- The cover is attached to the bumper by a tether.
2.Remove the rubber cap by pulling it out.
3.Remove the towing hook and wheel wrench from the tool case in the cargo area.
4. Screw the towing hook into the hole, and tighten it with the wheel nut wrench.
Rear
Remove the rear bumper cover.
If Your Vehicle Gets Stuck
NOTICE
To avoid damage to your vehicle, use the towing hook for straight, flat ground towing only. Do not tow at an angle. The hook should not be used to tow the vehicle onto a flat bed. Do not use it as a tie down.
