If Your Car Gets Stuck
If your car gets stuck in sand, mud,
or snow, call a towing service to pull
it out (see page
246
).
"
Rocking'' your car between forward
and reverse gear or revving up the
engine and allowing the wheels to spin
freely at high speeds can damage the
automatic transmission. Use a tow
service to prevent transmission damage.
For very short distances such as
freeing the car, you can use the tie-
down hook on the lower right of the
front bumper. Remove the cover to
expose the hook. This hook is not for
open-road towing (see
Towing,
page
246
).
