If your vehicle becomes stuck
in sand, mud or snow
If your vehicle becomes stuck in snow, sand,
or mud, it can often be moved by a rocking
motion. Rock your vehicle back and forth to
free it.
Do not spin the wheels. Constant efforts to
free a stuck vehicle can cause transaxle fail-
ure.
If your vehicle is still stuck after several
rocking attempts, call for a commercial tow
truck service.
