292 IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
(Continued)
Proper towing or lifting equipment is required to
prevent damage to your vehicle. Use only tow bars
and other equipment designed for this purpose,
following equipment manufacturer’s instructions.
Use of safety chains is mandatory. Attach a tow bar
or other towing device to main structural members
of the vehicle, not to fascia/bumper or associated
brackets. State and local laws regarding vehicles
under tow must be observed.
NOTE:
You must ensure that the Auto Park Brake
feature is disabled before towing this vehicle (if
rear wheels are on the ground), to avoid inadver-
tent Electric Park Brake (EPB) engagement. The
Auto Park Brake feature is enabled or disabled
via the customer programmable features in the
Uconnect Settings.
Vehicles with a discharged battery or total elec-
trical failure when the EPB is engaged, will need
a wheel dolly or jack to raise the rear wheels off
the ground when moving the vehicle onto a
flatbed.
FCA US LLC recommends towing your vehicle with
all four wheels OFF the ground using a flatbed.
If flatbed equipment is not available, this vehicle
must be towed with the front wheels OFF the
ground (using a towing dolly, or wheel lift
equipment with the front wheels raised).
NOTE:
Ensure that the Electric Park Brake is released,
and remains released, while being towed.
Vehicle Recovery Tow Points
Your vehicle is equipped with Vehicle Recovery
Points that can be used to recover a disabled
vehicle, located on the underbody of the vehicle.
NOTE:
Ensure that the towing service tow hooks are
properly seated and secured in the attachment
points.
This recovery tow feature should be used by a
trained professional only.
