TOWING A TRAILER
WARNING
Never tow a trailer with a
Fusion Hybrid. This
powertrain is not designed to tow.
TRANSPORTING THE VEHICLE
E143886
If you need to have your vehicle towed,
contact a professional towing service or,
if you are a member of a roadside
assistance program, your roadside
assistance service provider.
We recommend the use of a wheel lift and
dollies or flatbed equipment to tow your
vehicle. Do not tow with a slingbelt. Ford
Motor Company has not approved a
slingbelt towing procedure. Vehicle
damage may occur if towed incorrectly, or
by any other means.
Ford Motor Company produces a towing
manual for all authorized tow truck
operators. Have your tow truck operator
refer to this manual for proper hook-up
and towing procedures for your vehicle.
The front wheels (drive wheels) must be
on a tow dolly when towing your vehicle
from the rear using wheel lift equipment.
This prevents damage to the transmission.
We recommend placing the rear wheels
on a tow dolly when towing your vehicle
from the front using wheel lift equipment.
This prevents damage to the rear fascia.
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:
• Tow only in the forward direction.
• The transmission in position N. If you
cannot move the transmission into N,
you may need to override it. See
Automatic Transmission (page 176).
• Maximum speed is 35 mph (56 km/h).
• Maximum distance is 50 miles (80
kilometers).
