If You’re Stuck: In Sand, Mud,
Ice or Snow
What you don’t want to do when your
vehicle is stuck is to spin your wheels.
The method
known as “rocking” can
rou must use caution. I help you get out when you’re stuck, but
CAUT/UN I
A: If :you let.your :tires. spin -at
high speed.when the ASR
, . ‘OFE warning light is on, or when
“the SERVICE ASR warning light is
‘on, your tires can explode and you
or others could be injured. And,
spinning your tires with either of
these lights on can cause the
automatic transmission
or other
parts of the vehicle to overheat.
That could cause an engine
compartment fire or other damage.
When you’re stuck, spin the wheels
as little as possible. Don’t spin the
wheels above 35 mph (56 M) as
shown on the speedometer.
Rocking Your Vehicle to Get It Out:
First, turn your steering wheel left and
right. That will clear the area around
your front wheels. You should turn your
ASR system off. Then, shift back and
forth between R (Reverse) and a
forward gear--or if you have a manual
transmission, between 1 or 2 and
R (Reverse)-spinning the wheels as
little as possible. Release the accelerator
pedal while
you shift, and press lightly
on the accelerator pedal when the
transmission is in gear.
If that doesn’t
get
you out after a few tries, you may
need to be towed out.
If you do need to
be towed
out, see the Index under
Towing Your Corvette and Acceleration
Slip Regulation (ASR) System.
