This section describes procedures for towing a disabled vehicle using a commercial towing service. If the transmission and drivetrain are operable, disabled

vehicles may also be towed as described on Ú page 142.

NOTE:

Vehicles equipped with Quadra-Lift must be placed in Transport mode, before tying them down (from the body) on a trailer or flatbed truck Ú page 148. If the

vehicle cannot be placed in Transport mode (for example, engine will not run), tie-downs should be fastened over the tires using specific tire tie-down nets. Failure

to follow these instructions may cause fault codes to be set and/or cause loss of proper tie-down tension.

Proper towing or lifting equipment is required to prevent damage to your vehicle. Use only tow bars and other equipment designed for this purpose, following

not to fascia/bumpers or associated brackets. State and local laws regarding vehicles under tow must be observed.
