Four-Wheel Drive Models

The manufacturer recommends towing with all wheels

OFF

the ground. Acceptable methods are to tow the

vehicle on a flatbed or with one end of vehicle raised and

the opposite end on a towing dolly.
If flatbed equipment is not available, and the transfer

case is operable, the vehicle may be towed (in the

forward direction, with ALL wheels on the ground), IF

the transfer case is in NEUTRAL (N) and the transmis-

sion is in PARK (for automatic transmissions) or in gear

(NOT in NEUTRAL, for manual transmissions). Refer to

“Recreational Towing” in “Starting And Operating” for

further information and detailed instructions.

CAUTION!

Front or rear wheel lifts must not be used. Internal

damage to the transmission or transfer case will
occur if a front or rear wheel lift is used when
towing.

Towing this vehicle in violation of the above re-

quirements can cause severe transmission and/or
transfer case damage. Damage from improper tow-
ing is not covered under the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
