Acura 2004 NSX - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 200)

The operator
loads your vehicle on the back of a
truck.
When you contact the towing agency,
inform them that you have an NSX
and that a flat-bed is required.
The tow
truck uses two pivoting arms that go
under the tires (front or rear) and lift
them off the ground. The other two
tires remain on the ground. Because
the NSX sits so low, the body could
come in contact with the ground and
be damaged.
The tow
truck uses metal cables with hooks
on the ends. These hooks go around
parts of the frame or suspension and
the cables lift that end of the vehicle
off the ground. Your vehicle’s sus-
pension and body can be seriously
damaged.
If your vehicle needs to be towed,
call a professional towing service or
organization. Never tow your vehicle
behind another vehicle with just a
rope or chain. It is very dangerous.
There are three popular types of
professional towing equipment.
Emergency Towing
Taking Care of the Unexpected
Flat-bed Equipment
Wheel-Lif t Equipment
Sling-type Equipment
This is the only way your
NSX should be transported.
This method of
towing is unacceptable.
