If your vehicle becomes stuck in snow, sand,
or mud, it can often be moved by a rocking
motion. Rock your vehicle back and forth to
free it.
Do not rev the engine or spin the wheels.
Constant efforts to free a stuck vehicle can
cause overheating and transaxle failure. Let
the engine idle for a few minutes to cool the
transaxle before trying again.
If your vehicle is still stuck after several rock-
ing attempts, call for a commercial tow truck
service.
