If your vehicle needs to be towed

Before towing

The following may indicate a problem with your transaxle. Contact
your Toyota dealer before towing.

● The engine is running but the vehicle will not move.
● The vehicle makes an abnormal sound.

If towing is necessary, we recommend having your vehicle towed by
your Toyota dealer or a commercial towing service, using a wheel-lift
type truck or flat bed truck.
Use a safety chain system for all towing, and abide by all state/pro-
vincial and local laws.
2WD models: If towing your vehicle with a wheel-lift type truck from
the front, the vehicle’s rear wheels and axles must be in good condi-
tions. (

P. 674, 676)

If they are damaged, use a towing dolly or flat bed truck.

AWD models: If towing your vehicle with a wheel-lift type truck, use a
towing dolly. (
