TRANSPORTING THE VEHICLE

E143886

If you need to have your vehicle towed,

contact a professional towing service or,

if you are a member of a roadside

assistance program, your roadside

assistance service provider.

We recommend the use of a wheel lift and

dollies or flatbed equipment to tow your

vehicle. Do not tow with a slingbelt. Ford

Motor Company has not approved a

slingbelt towing procedure. Vehicle

damage may occur if towed incorrectly, or

by any other means.

Ford Motor Company produces a towing

manual for all authorized tow truck

operators. Have your tow truck operator

refer to this manual for proper hook-up

and towing procedures for your vehicle.

It is acceptable to have your front-wheel

drive vehicle towed from the front if using

proper wheel lift equipment to raise the

front wheels off the ground. When towing

in this manner, the rear wheels can remain

on the ground.

Front-wheel drive vehicles must have the

front wheels placed on a tow dolly when

towing your vehicle from the rear using

wheel lift equipment. This prevents

damage to the transmission.

Towing an all-wheel drive vehicle requires

that all wheels be off the ground, such as

using a wheel lift and dollies or flatbed

equipment. This prevents damage to the

transmission, all-wheel drive system and

vehicle.

TOWING THE VEHICLE ON

FOUR WHEELS

Emergency Towing

If your vehicle becomes inoperable

(without access to wheel dollies,

car-hauling trailer, or flatbed transport

vehicle), it can be flat-towed (all wheels

on the ground, regardless of the powertrain

and transmission configuration) under the

following conditions:

• Your vehicle is facing forward for

towing in a forward direction.

• Place the transmission in position N. If

you cannot move the transmission into

N, you may need to override it. See

Transmission (page 161).

• Maximum speed is 35 mph (56 km/h).

• Maximum distance is 50 miles (80

kilometers).
