Vehicle Recovery
Using the Recovery Eye
A towing line under tension is hazardous;
if it fails, it can strike people and cause
serious injury or death. Follow all warnings and instructions
provided with the towing line and winch. Use only lines
designed and rated to pull a vehicle of this weight. See
“Vehicle Load Limits”, page 2-3
.
Do not manually disengage the Electronic
Parking Brake (EPB) until the vehicle is
ready to be pulled, with the recovery eye assembled and the
towing line attached. Disengaging the EPB leaves the vehicle
freewheeling and it could roll unexpectedly, causing personal
injury, vehicle damage, or property damage. See
Parking Brake (EPB)”, page 4-18
Before pulling the vehicle, always ensure
that the recovery eye bolt is fastened
securely.
After fastening the recovery eye bolt and
attaching a tow line, release the EPB
before pulling the vehicle (see
). Pulling the vehicle with the EPB engaged
could cause damage to it, which would not be covered by the
warranty.
In the event that your vehicle needs to be pulled onto a flatbed
trailer or transporter, a recovery eye assembly is supplied for
this purpose. Once assembled, a towing line (e.g. a strap, chain,
or cable) can be attached to the recovery eye and used to pull
the vehicle onto a transporter.
1. The recovery eye is located in a storage area under the
trunk floor. Pull up on the carpeted cover to access the
recovery eye.
