Towing

Towing Your Vehicle

Consult your dealer or a professional towing

service if you need to have your disabled vehicle

towed. See Roadside Assistance Program on

page 542.

If you want to tow your vehicle behind another

vehicle for recreational purposes (such as behind

a motorhome), see “Recreational Vehicle

Towing” following.

Recreational Vehicle Towing

Recreational vehicle towing means towing your

vehicle behind another vehicle – such as behind a

motorhome. The two most common types of

recreational vehicle towing are known as “dinghy

towing” (towing your vehicle with all four wheels

on the ground) and “dolly towing” (towing

your vehicle with two wheels on the ground and

two wheels up on a device known as a “dolly”).

With the proper preparation and equipment,

many vehicles can be towed in these ways.

See “Dinghy Towing” and “Dolly Towing,” following.

You may also need brakes for the vehicle being

towed. See your dealer for additional trailering

information.

Here are some important things to consider before

you do recreational vehicle towing:

• What’s the trailering capacity of the towing

vehicle? Be sure you read the tow vehicle

manufacturer’s recommendations.

• How far will you tow? Some vehicles have

restrictions on how far and how long they

can be towed.

• Do you have the proper towing equipment?

See your dealer or trailering professional

for additional advice and equipment

recommendations.

• Is your vehicle ready to be towed? Just as

you would prepare your vehicle for a long

trip, you’ll want to make sure your vehicle is

prepared to be towed. See Before Leaving on

a Long Trip on page 340.
