TOWING A DISABLED VEHICLE
This section describes procedures for towing a
disabled vehicle using a commercial towing
service.
NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with a Anti-Lift
Protection system, you will need to disable the
system prior to towing by pushing the button
located on the overhead console. Refer to
”Security Alarm System — If Equipped” in
“Getting To Know Your Vehicle” for further
information.
The operators of the assistance vehicle must
be informed with regard to the vehicle's
minimum height from ground in order to avoid
contact between the ends of the bumpers with
the equipment of the breakdown truck.
The following image illustrates the front and
rear attachment corners of the vehicle, to be
taken into consideration when loading the
vehicle on the commercial towing vehicle.

WARNING!
A special tool is required to perform this
procedure. Damage to the vehicle or serious
injury or death may occur if the procedure is
performed improperly. Please contact an
authorized dealer to have this procedure
performed.
CAUTION!
The vehicle should be transported with all
four wheels OFF the ground on the flatbed
of a roadside assistance vehicle. Avoid
towing with only the front (or rear) wheels
lifted. When towing with only the front (or
rear) wheels lifted, in addition to
damaging the body, it could damage the
transmission.
Do not use sling-type equipment when
towing. Vehicle damage may occur.
When securing the vehicle to a flatbed
truck, do not attach to front or rear
suspension components. Damage to your
vehicle may result from improper towing.
Ensure that the Electric Park Brake is
released, and remain released, while
being towed.
Damage from improper towing is not
covered under the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
