call a professional towing service or
organization. Never tow your vehicle
with just a rope or chain. It is very
dangerous.
If, due to damage, your vehicle must
be towed with the front wheels on
the ground, do this:
Release the parking brake.
Shift the transmission to neutral.
The operator
loads your vehicle on the back of a
truck.

do not tow the vehicle more than 50

front spoiler, remove it before
towing so it is not damaged.
