Front-wheel drive vehicles must have the front wheels placed on a tow
dolly when towing your vehicle from the rear using wheel lift equipment.
This prevents damage to the transmission.
Towing an all-wheel drive vehicle requires that all wheels be off the
ground, such as using a wheel lift and dollies or flatbed equipment. This
prevents damage to the transmission, all-wheel drive system and vehicle.
TOWING THE VEHICLE ON FOUR WHEELS
Emergency Towing
If your vehicle becomes inoperable (without access to wheel dollies,
car-hauling trailer, or flatbed transport vehicle), it can be flat-towed (all
wheels on the ground, regardless of the powertrain and transmission
configuration) under the following conditions:
•
Your vehicle is facing forward for towing in a forward direction.
•
Place the transmission in position
N.
See
Automatic transmission
in
the
Transmission
chapter if you cannot move the transmission into
N.
•
Maximum speed is 35 mph (56 km/h).
•
Maximum distance is 50 miles (80 kilometers).

Vehicles Equipped with a 2.0L Engine
Note:
Put your climate control system in recirculated air mode to
prevent exhaust fumes from entering your vehicle. See the
Climate
Control
chapter.
Follow these guidelines if you have a need for recreational towing, such
as towing your vehicle behind a motorhome. We designed these
guidelines to prevent damage to your transmission.
You can tow your vehicle with the front wheels off the ground by using a
tow dolly. If you are using a tow dolly, follow the instructions specified
by the equipment provider. Otherwise, you cannot tow your vehicle.
