If your vehicle is to be towed from
the rear using wheel lift equipment,
the front wheels (drive wheels)
must be placed on a dolly to
prevent damage to the transaxle.
Ford Motor Company provides a
towing manual for all authorized
tow truck operators. Have your tow
truck operator refer to this manual
for proper hookĆup and towing
procedures for your vehicle.
In case of a roadside emergency
with a disabled vehicle (without
access to wheel dollies, car hauling
trailer or flatbed transport vehicle)
your vehicle can be flat towed (all
wheels on the ground) under the
following conditions:
•
The transmission is placed in N
(Neutral).
•
Maximum speed is 56 km/h
(35 mph).
•
Maximum distance is 80 km
(50 miles).
