TOWING A
DISABLED VEHICLE
This section describes procedures for
towing a disabled vehicle using a
commercial towing service.
Caution!
The vehicle should be transported with
all four wheels OFF the ground on the
flatbed of a roadside assistance vehicle.
Avoid towing with only the front (or rear)
wheels lifted. When towing with only the
front (or rear) wheels lifted, in addition to
damaging the body, it could damage the
transmission.
Do not use sling-type equipment when
towing. Vehicle damage may occur.
When securing the vehicle to a flatbed
truck, do not attach to front or rear
suspension components. Damage to your
vehicle may result from improper towing.
Ensure that the Electric Park Brake is
released, and remain released, while being
towed.
Damage from improper towing is not
covered under the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
The operators of the assistance vehicle
must be informed of your vehicle's
minimum required height from the
ground, in order to avoid contact
between the ends of the bumpers and
the equipment of the breakdown truck.
The following image illustrates the front
and rear attachment corners of the vehicle, which are to be taken into
consideration when loading your vehicle
onto the assistance vehicle.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY

Rear Wheel Drive (RWD)
Models
It is recommended to tow the vehicle
with all four wheels OFF the ground on
the flatbed of a roadside assistance
vehicle.
Caution!
Do not use sling type equipment when
towing. Vehicle damage may occur.
When securing the vehicle to a flat bed
truck, do not attach to front or rear
suspension components. Damage to your
vehicle may result from improper towing.
Ensure that the Electric Park Brake is
released, and remains released, while
being towed.
If an assistance vehicle with a flatbed is
not available, the vehicle must be
towed with the rear wheels lifted from
the ground using a trailer or special
equipment allowing lifting of the rear
wheels.
Four-Wheel Drive (AWD)
Models
It is recommended to tow the vehicle
with all four wheels OFF the ground on
the flatbed of a roadside assistance
vehicle.
Caution!
DO NOT flat tow this vehicle. Damage to
the drivetrain will result.
DO NOT dolly tow this vehicle. Use of a
towing dolly can cause significant damage
to your vehicle.
Towing this vehicle in violation of the above
requirements can cause severe
transmission damage. Damage from
improper towing is not covered under the
New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
TOW HOOKS
If the vehicle has been in an accident or
has broken down, a tow hook is
provided in the tools container located
inside the luggage compartment for
vehicle towing. Towing is meant only for
short distances on a paved road
surface.
Proceed as follows to use the tow
hook:
1. Unhook the cap on the front or rear
bumper (if equipped), pushing on the
upper part.

MMT In Gasoline
Methylcyclopentadienyl Manganese
Tricarbonyl (MMT) is a manganese-
containing metallic additive that is
blended into some gasoline to increase
octane. Gasoline blended with MMT
provides no performance advantage
beyond gasoline of the same octane
number without MMT. Gasoline blended
with MMT reduces spark plug life and
reduces emissions system performance
in some vehicles. The manufacturer
recommends that gasoline without
MMT be used in your vehicle. The MMT
content of gasoline may not be
indicated on the gasoline pump;
therefore, you should ask your gasoline
retailer whether the gasoline contains
MMT. MMT is prohibited in Federal and
California reformulated gasoline.
Materials Added To Fuel
Besides using unleaded gasoline with
the proper octane rating, gasolines that
contain detergents, corrosion and
stability additives are recommended.
Using gasolines that have these
additives will help improve fuel
economy, reduce emissions, and
maintain vehicle performance.Designated TOP TIER
Detergent Gasoline
contains a higher level
of detergents to further
aide in minimizing
engine and fuel system
deposits. When
available, the usage of Top Tier
Detergent gasoline is recommended.
Visit www.toptiergas.com for a list of
TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline Retailers.
Indiscriminate use of fuel system
cleaning agents should be avoided.
Many of these materials intended for
gum and varnish removal may contain
active solvents or similar ingredients.
These can harm fuel system gasket and
diaphragm materials.
Fuel System Cautions
Caution!
Follow these guidelines to maintain your
vehicle’s performance:
The use of leaded gasoline is prohibited
by Federal law. Using leaded gasoline can
impair engine performance and damage
the emissions control system.
An out-of-tune engine or certain fuel or
ignition malfunctions can cause the
catalytic converter to overheat. If you notice
a pungent burning odor or some light
smoke, your engine may be out of tune or
malfunctioning and may require immediate
service. Contact your authorized dealer for
service assistance.
The use of fuel additives, which are now
being sold as octane enhancers, is not
recommended. Most of these products
contain high concentrations of methanol.
Fuel system damage or vehicle
performance problems resulting from the
use of such fuels or additives is not the
responsibility of the manufacturer and may
void or not be covered under the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Note:
Intentional tampering with the
emissions control system can result in
civil penalties being assessed against
you.
