FORD 2007 Freestyle v.2 - Manual (Page 239)

WRECKER TOWING
If you need to have your vehicle towed, contact a professional towing
service or, if you are a member of a roadside assistance program, your
roadside assistance service provider.
It is recommended that your vehicle be towed with a wheel lift or flatbed
equipment. Do not tow with a slingbelt. Ford Motor Company has not
approved a slingbelt towing procedure.
If the vehicle is being towed using wheel lift equipment, the wheels being
raised should be brought to a height of 12 inches (30 cm) above the
non-raised wheels to prevent damage to the vehicle.
On Front Wheel Drive (FWD) models, if your vehicle is to be towed
from the rear using wheel lift equipment, it is recommended that the
front wheels (drive wheels) be placed on a dolly to prevent damage to
the automatic transaxle. If your vehicle is to be towed from the front
using wheel lift equipment, it is recommended that the rear wheels be
placed on a dolly to prevent damage to the vehicle.
