Emergency Towing

Call a professional towing service if you need to tow your vehicle.

■

Flatbed equipment

The operator loads your vehicle on the back of a truck.

This is the best way to transport your vehicle.

■

Wheel lift equipment

The tow truck uses two pivoting arms that go under the front tyres and lift them off
the ground. The rear tyres remain on the ground.

This is an acceptable way to

tow your vehicle.

Emergency Towing

NOTICE

Trying to lift or tow your vehicle by the bumpers will
cause serious damage. The bumpers are not designed
to support the vehicle's weight.

Make sure the parking brake is released. If you
cannot release the parking brake, your vehicle must
be transported by the flatbed equipment.

Parking Brake

P. 471

Improper towing such as towing behind a
motorhome or other motor vehicle can damage the
transmission.

Never tow your vehicle with just a rope or chain.
It is very dangerous since ropes or chains may shift
from side to side or break.
