Towing service

If emergency towing is necessary, we

recommend having it done by an author-

ized HYUNDAI dealer or a commercial

tow-truck service. Proper lifting and tow-

ing procedures are necessary to prevent

damage to the vehicle. The use of wheel

dollies or flatbed is recommended.

It is acceptable to tow the vehicle with the

rear wheels on the ground (without dol-

lies) and the front wheels off the ground.

If any of the loaded wheels or suspen-

sion components are damaged or the

vehicle is being towed with the front

wheels on the ground, use a towing dolly

under the front wheels.

When being towed by a commercial tow

truck and wheel dollies are not used, the

front of the vehicle should always be lift-

ed, not the rear.

Do not tow the vehicle with the

front wheels on the ground as

this may cause damage to the

Do not tow with sling-type equip-

ment. Use a wheel lift or flatbed
