All Wheel Drive (AWD) Models
The manufacturer recommends towing your vehicle with
all four wheels OFF the ground using a flatbed.
If the transmission and drivetrain are operable, AWD mod-
els can also be towed with the ignition in the ON/RUN
position, the transmission in NEUTRAL (not in PARK!), and
the rear wheels OFF the ground with no limitation on speed
or distance. Since the ignition MUST be in the ON/RUN
position to tow in this manner, AWD vehicles must be towed
with ALL FOUR wheels OFF the ground (e.g. on a flatbed
truck) if the Key Fob is unavailable.
CAUTION!
• Towing this vehicle using any other method can cause
severe transmission and/or transfer case damage.
• Damage from improper towing is not covered un-
der the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Rear-Wheel Drive (RWD) Models
The manufacturer recommends towing your vehicle with
all four wheels OFF the ground using a flatbed.
If flatbed equipment is not available, and the transmis-
sion is operable, this vehicle may be towed (with rear
wheels on the ground) under the following conditions:
• The transmission must be in NEUTRAL.
• The towing speed must not exceed 30 mph (48 km/h).
• The towing distance must not exceed 30 miles (48 km).
If the transmission is not operable, or the vehicle must be
towed faster than 30 mph (48 km/h) or farther than
30 miles (48 km), then the only acceptable method of
towing is with a flatbed truck.
