Front Wheel Drive (FWD)
The manufacturer recommends towing your
vehicle with all four wheels OFF the ground
on a flatbed.
If flatbed equipment is not available, this
vehicle must 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 re-
leased, and remains released, while being
towed.
CAUTION!
Towing this vehicle in violation of the
above requirements can cause severe
transmission damage. Damage from im-
proper towing is not covered under the
New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Four Wheel Drive (4WD)
The manufacturer requires towing with all
four wheels OFF the ground. Acceptable
methods are to tow the vehicle on a flatbed,
or with one end of the vehicle raised and the
opposite end on a towing dolly.
CAUTION!
• DO NOT tow this vehicle with ANY of its
wheels on the ground. Damage to the
drivetrain will result.
• Front or rear wheel lifts must not be used
(if the remaining wheels are on the
ground). Internal damage to the trans-
mission or power transfer unit will occur
if a front or rear wheel lift is used when
towing.
CAUTION!
• Towing this vehicle in violation of the
above requirements can cause severe
transmission and/or power transfer unit
damage. Damage from improper towing

Emergency Tow Hooks — If Equipped
If your vehicle is equipped with tow hooks,
there will be one in the rear and two mounted
on the front of the vehicle. The rear hook will
be located on the driver's side of the vehicle.
NOTE:
For off-road recovery, it is recommended to
use both of the front tow hooks to minimize
the risk of damage to the vehicle.
Place the ignition in the ON/RUN position,
without opening the door. During towing re-
member that not having the aid of the power
brakes and the electromechanical power
steering, greater force is needed in applying
the brakes and steering of the vehicle.
