Torque Lock
If you are parking on a hill and you
don’t shift your transaxle into
P (Park)
properly, the weight of the vehicle may
put too much force on the parking pawl
in the transaxle. You-may find it
difficult to pull the shift lever out.of
P
(Park). This is called “torque lock.” To
prevent torque lock, set the parking
brake and then shift into
P (Park)
properly before you leave the driver’s
seat.
To find out how, see Shifting Into.
P (Park) in the.Index.
When you are ready to drive; move the
shift lever out of
P (Park) BEFORE you
release the parking brake.
If “torque lock” does occur, you may
need to have another vehicle push yours
a little uphill to take some of the
pressure from the transaxle,
so you can
pull the shift lever out of
P (Park).
