Towing Your Vehicle - Pontiac 1997 Grand Am Owner's Manual

Towing Your Vehicle
Try to have a Pontiac dealer or a professional towing
service tow your Grand Am. They can provide the right
equipment and know how to tow your vehicle without
damage. See "Roadside Assistance'' in the Index.
If your vehicle has been changed or modified since it
was factory new by adding aftermarket items like fog
lamps, aero skirting, or special tires and wheels, these
instructions and illustrations may not be correct.
Before you do anything, turn on the hazard
warning flashers.
When you call, tell the towing service:
That your vehicle cannot be towed from the front or
rear with sling-type equipment, as described later in
this section.
0
That your vehicle has front-wheel drive.
The make, model and year of your vehicle.
Whether you can still move the shift lever.
If there was an accident, what was damaged.
When the towing service arrives, let the tow operator
know that this manual contains detailed towing
instructions and illustrations. The operator may want to
see them.
