If the transmission is not operable, then the only acceptable method of towing is with a
flatbed truck.
CAUTION!
To w i n g t h i s v e h i c l e i n v i o l a t i o n o f t h e a b o v e r e q u i r e m e n t s c a n c a u s e s e v e r e e n g i n e
and/or transmission damage. Damage from improper towing is not covered under the
New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
EVENT DATA RECORDER (EDR)
This vehicle is equipped with an Event Data Recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR
is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment
or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems
performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety
systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is
designed to record such data as:
•Howvarioussystemsinyourvehiclewereoperating.
•Whetherornotthedriverandpassengersafetybeltswerebuckled/fastened.
•Howfar(ifatall)thedriverwasdepressingtheacceleratorand/orbrakepedal.
•Howfastthevehiclewastraveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes
and injuries occur.
NOTE:
EDR data is recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data is
recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g. name,
gender, age, and crash location) is recorded. However, other parties, such as law
enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data
routinely acquired during a crash investigation.
To r e a d d a t a r e c o r d e d b y a n E D R , s p e c i a l e q u i p m e n t i s r e q u i r e d , a n d a c c e s s t o t h e v e h i c l e
or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties such as law
enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have
access to the vehicle or the EDR.
