If your vehicle needs to be towed
Before towing
The following may indicate a problem with your hybrid transmission.
Contact your Toyota dealer before towing.
●
The hybrid system is operating but the vehicle will not move.
●
The vehicle makes an abnormal sound.
If there is a malfunction in the P position control system, the smart
entry & start system or the immobilizer system, or if the 12-volt bat-
tery is discharged, the vehicle cannot be towed with the front wheels
on the ground, as the front wheels may be locked. In this case, trans-
port the vehicle with both front wheels or all four wheels lifted.
If towing is necessary, we recommend having your vehicle towed by
your Toyota dealer or a commercial towing service, using a lift-type
truck or flat bed truck.
Use a safety chain system for all towing, and abide by all state/pro-
vincial and local laws.
