Manual Transmission

• Manual transmission vehicles can be flat towed (all

four wheels on the ground) with the transmission in
NEUTRAL.

• Manual transmission vehicles can also be towed with

the front wheels elevated, or on a flatbed truck (all
four wheels OFF the ground).

CAUTION!

DO NOT flat tow any disabled vehicle if condition is
related to a clutch, transmission or driveline compo-
nent. Damage to the drivetrain could result.

All Transmissions

If you must use the accessories (wipers, defroster, etc.)
while being towed, the key must be in the ON/RUN
position, not the ACC position.

If the key fob is unavailable, or the battery is discharged,
see “Shift Lever Override” in “What To Do In Emergen-
cies” for instructions on shifting the automatic transmis-
sion out of PARK for towing.

CAUTION!

Do not use sling-type equipment when towing.
When securing the vehicle to a flatbed truck, do not
attach to front or rear suspension components. Dam-
age to your vehicle may result from improper towing.
