Dinghy Towing

Notice: If the vehicle is towed with all four wheels
on the ground, the drivetrain components could be
damaged. The repairs would not be covered by the
vehicle warranty. Do not tow the vehicle with all
four wheels on the ground.

The vehicle was not designed to be towed with all four
wheels on the ground. If the vehicle must be towed, use
a dolly. See “Dolly Towing” later in this section for more
information.

Dolly Towing (Rear‐Wheel‐Drive
Vehicles)

Notice: Dolly towing or dinghy towing the vehicle
may cause damage because of reduced ground
clearance. Always tow the vehicle using the towing

on a flatbed truck or trailer.

Rear‐wheel drive vehicles can be towed using a dolly.
To tow the vehicle using a dolly, follow these steps:

1. Attach the dolly to the tow vehicle following the

dolly manufacturer's instructions.
