NOTE:
• You must ensure that the Auto Park Brake
feature is disabled before towing this ve-
hicle to avoid inadvertent Electric Park
Brake engagement. The Auto Park Brake
feature is enabled or disabled via the cus-
tomer programmable features in the
Uconnect Settings.
• Vehicles with a discharged battery, or total
electrical failure when the electric park
brake (EPB) is engaged, will need a wheel
dolly or jack to raise the rear wheels off the
ground when moving the vehicle onto a
flatbed.
If you must use the accessories (wipers, de-
frosters, etc.) while being towed, the ignition
must be in the ON/RUN mode.
Note that the Safehold feature will engage
the Electric Park Brake whenever the driver's
door is opened (if the battery is connected,
ignition is ON, transmission is not in PARK,
and brake pedal is released). If you are towing
this vehicle with the ignition in the ON/RUNmode, you must manually disable the Elec-
tric Park Brake each time the driver's door is
opened by pressing the brake pedal and then
releasing the EPB.
If the vehicle’s battery is discharged, refer to
“Gear Selector Override” in this section for
instructions on shifting the automatic trans-
mission out of PARK so that the vehicle can
be moved.
CAUTION!
• 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 remains released, while
being towed.
Without The Key Fob
Special care must be taken when the vehicle
is towed with the ignition in the LOCK/OFF
mode. The only approved method of towingwithout the key fob is with a flatbed truck.
Proper towing equipment is necessary to pre-
vent damage to the vehicle.
Front-Wheel Drive (FWD) Models — With
Key Fob
The manufacturer recommends towing your
vehicle with all four wheelsOFFthe ground
using a flatbed.
If flatbed equipment is not available, this
vehicle must be towed with the front wheels
OFFthe ground (using a towing dolly, or wheel
lift equipment with the front wheels raised).
Ensure that the Electric Park Brake is re-
leased, and remains released, while being
towed. The Electric Park Brake does not need
to be released if all four wheels are off the
ground.
CAUTION!
Towing this vehicle in violation of the
above requirements can cause severe en-
gine and/or transmission damage. Damage
from improper towing is not covered under
the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
217
4x4 Models
The manufacturer requires towing with all
four wheelsOFFthe ground.
Acceptable methods are to tow the vehicle on
a flatbed, or with one end of the vehicle
raised and the opposite end on a towing dolly.
CAUTION!
• Front or rear wheel lifts must not be used
(if the remaining wheels are on the
ground). Internal damage to the trans-
mission or transfer case will occur if a
front or rear wheel lift is used when
towing.
• Towing this vehicle in violation of the
above requirements can cause severe
transmission and/or transfer case dam-
age. Damage from improper towing is
not covered under the New Vehicle Lim-
ited Warranty.
Emergency Tow Hooks
If your vehicle is equipped with tow hooks,
there will be one in the rear and two mounted
on the front of the vehicle. The rear hook will
be located on the driver's side of the vehicle.
NOTE:
For off-road recovery, it is recommended to
use both of the front tow hooks to minimize
the risk of damage to the vehicle.
Vehicles Equipped With Key Fob With An Inte-
grated Vehicle Key
Turn the ignition key to the ON/RUN and then
the OFF/LOCK position, without removing it.
By extracting the key this will automatically
engage the steering wheel lock. Place the
transmission into NEUTRAL.
Vehicles With Keyless Enter-N-Go
Place the ignition in the ON/RUN position,
and subsequently in OFF/LOCK, without
opening the door. During towing, remember
that not having the aid of the power brakes
and the electromechanical power steeringwill require greater force when applying the
brakes and steering of the vehicle.
WARNING!
• Do not use a chain for freeing a stuck
vehicle. Chains may break, causing seri-
ous injury or death.
• Stand clear of vehicles when pulling
with tow hooks. Tow straps may become
disengaged, causing serious injury.
CAUTION!
Tow hooks are for emergency use only, to
rescue a vehicle stranded off road. Do not
use tow hooks for tow truck hookup or
highway towing. You could damage your
vehicle.
