The tow
truck uses two pivoting arms that go
under the tires (front or rear) and lift
them off the ground. The other two
tires remain on the ground.
If your car needs to be towed, call a
professional towing service or, if you
belong to one, an organization that
provides roadside assistance. Never
tow your car behind another vehicle
with just a rope or chain. It is very
dangerous.
There are three popular types of
professional towing equipment.
The operator
loads your car on the back of a truck.
Release the parking brake.
Shift the transmission to Neutral.
The tow
truck uses metal cables with hooks
on the ends. These hooks go around
parts of the frame or suspension and
the cables lift that end of the car off
the ground. Your car’s suspension
and body can be seriously damaged.
If your Honda cannot be transported
by flat-bed, it should be towed by
wheel-lift equipment with the front
wheels off the ground. If due to
damage, your car must be towed
with the front wheels on the ground,
do the following:
Release the parking brake.
Start the engine.
Shift to D, then to N.
Turn off the engine.
5-speed Manual Transmission
Automatic transmission (CVT)
Wheel-lif t Equipment
Flat-bed Equipment
Sling-type Equipment
