10-96 Vehicle Care
Here are some important things to
consider before recreational vehicle
towing:
What is the towing capacity of
the towing vehicle? Be sure to
read the tow vehicle
manufacturer's
recommendations.
How far will the vehicle be
towed? Some vehicles have
restrictions on how far and how
long they can tow.
Does the vehicle have the
proper towing equipment? See
your dealer or trailering
professional for additional advice
and equipment
recommendations.
Is the vehicle ready to be
towed? Just as preparing the
vehicle for a long trip, make sure
the vehicle is prepared to be
towed.
Dinghy Towing (with eAssist)
Caution
If the vehicle is towed with all four
wheels on the ground, the
drivetrain components could be
damaged. The repairs would not
be covered by the vehicle
warranty. Do not tow the vehicle
with all four wheels on the
ground.
Vehicles with eAssist should not be
towed with all four wheels on the
ground. If the vehicle must be
towed, a dolly should be used. See
Dolly Towing following.
Dinghy Towing (without
eAssist)
To dinghy tow the vehicle from the
front with all four wheels on the
ground:
1. Position the vehicle to tow and
then secure it to the towing
vehicle.
