If you need to have your vehicle towed,
contact a professional towing service or, if
you are a member of a roadside assistance
program, your roadside assistance service
provider.
We recommend the use of a wheel lift and
dollies or flatbed equipment to tow your
vehicle. Do not tow with a slingbelt. Ford
Motor Company has not approved a slingbelt
towing procedure. Vehicle damage may
occur if towed incorrectly, or by any other
means.
Ford Motor Company produces a towing
manual for all authorized tow truck operators.
Have your tow truck operator refer to this
manual for proper hook-up and towing
procedures for your vehicle.
The front wheels (drive wheels) must be on
a tow dolly when towing your vehicle from
the rear using wheel lift equipment. This
prevents damage to the transmission.
We recommend placing the rear wheels on
a tow dolly when towing your vehicle from
the front using wheel lift equipment. This
prevents damage to the rear fascia.
