If You’re Stuck: In Sand, Mud, Ice

or Snow

In order to free your vehicle when it is stuck, you will

need to spin the wheels, but you don’t want to spin your

wheels too fast. The method known as “rocking” can

help you get out when you’re stuck, but you must

use caution.

CAUTION:

If you let your tires spin at high speed, they can

explode, and you or others could be injured. And,

the transmission or other parts of the vehicle can

overheat. That could cause an engine

compartment fire or other damage. When you’re

stuck, spin the wheels as little as possible. Don’t

spin the wheels above 35 mph (55 km/h) as shown

on the speedometer.

NOTICE:

Spinning your wheels can destroy parts of your

vehicle as well as the tires. If you spin the wheels

too fast while shifting your transmission back

and forth, you can destroy your transmission.

For information about using tire chains on your vehicle,

see “Tire Chains” in the Index.

Rocking Your Vehicle To Get It Out

First, turn your steering wheel left and right. That will clear

the area around your front wheels. If your vehicle has ASR,

you should turn the system off. (See “ASR System” in the

Index.) Then shift back and forth between REVERSE (R)

and a forward gear (or with a manual transmission, between

FIRST (1) or SECOND (2) and REVERSE (R)), spinning

the wheels as little as possible. Release the accelerator pedal

while you shift, and press lightly on the accelerator pedal

when the transmission is in gear. By slowly spinning your

wheels in the forward and reverse directions, you will cause a

rocking motion that may free your vehicle. If that doesn’t get

you out after a few tries, you may need to be towed out. If you

do need to be towed out, see “Towing Your Vehicle” in

the Index.
