Two-Wheel Drive Vehicles
Notice: If a two-wheel-drive
vehicle is towed with the rear
wheels on the ground, the
transmission could be damaged.
The repairs would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty. Never
tow the vehicle with the rear
wheels on the ground.

be towed with the rear wheels on
the ground. Two-wheel drive
transmissions have no provisions
for internal lubrication while being
towed.
To dolly tow a two‐wheel‐drive

the Ground)” later in this section for
more information.
