warranty. Never tow the vehicle
with the rear wheels on the
ground.
Two-wheel-drive vehicles and
four-wheel-drive vehicles with a
single speed automatic transfer
case should not be towed with the
rear wheels on the ground.

transmission when the rear
wheels turn.

vehicle or a four-wheel-drive vehicle
with a single speed automatic
transfer case, the vehicle must be
towed with the rear wheels on the
dolly. See “Rear Towing (Rear
Wheels Off the Ground)” later in this
section.
