center or a professional towing service.

dollies or with flatbed equipment. When towing with a flatbed, 4x4
blocks must be used when loading/unloading your vehicle. Do not tow
with a slingbelt. Ford Motor Company has not approved a slingbelt
towing procedure.
Note:If the vehicle is towed by other means or incorrectly, vehicle
