the ground or with all four wheels off the ground using a vehicle
transport trailer. Do not tow your AWD vehicle with the front

the equipment provider. If you are towing with all four wheels on the
ground, refer to the towing instructions below.
If you tow your vehicle with all four wheels on the ground, follow these
instructions:

Driving chapter).
• Do not exceed 65 mph (105 km/h)
