FREEING A STUCK VEHICLE
If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud, sand, or snow, it
can often be moved using a rocking motion. Turn the
steering wheel right and left to clear the area around
the front wheels. Then shift back and forth between
DRIVE and REVERSE (with automatic transmission) or
2nd gear and REVERSE (with manual transmission),
while gently pressing the accelerator. Use the least
amount of accelerator pedal pressure that will maintain
the rocking motion, without spinning the wheels or
racing the engine.
NOTE:Press the "ESC Off" switch, to place the
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system in
"Partial Off" mode, before rocking the ve-
hicle. Refer to “Electronic Brake Control” in
“Knowing Your Vehicle” for further informa-
tion. Once the vehicle has been freed, press the "ESC
Off" switch again to restore "ESC On" mode.
• Racing the engine or spinning the
wheels may lead to transmission over-
heating and failure. Allow the engine to
idle with the transmission in NEUTRAL for at
least one minute after every five rocking-motion
cycles.This will minimize overheating and reduce
the risk of clutch or transmission failure during
prolonged efforts to free a stuck vehicle.
• When “rocking” a stuck vehicle by shifting be-
tween DRIVE/2nd gear and REVERSE, do not spin
the wheels faster than 24 km/h, or drivetrain
damage may result .
• Revving the engine or spinning the wheels too
fast may lead to transmission overheating and
failure. It can also damage the tires. Do not spin
the wheels above 48 km/h while in gear (no trans-
mission shifting occurring).

WARNING!
Fast spinning tires can be dangerous.
Forc es
generated by excessive wheel
speeds may cause damage, or even failure, of the
axle and tires. A tire could explode and injure
someone. Do not spin your vehicle's wheels faster
than 48 km/h or for longer than 30 seconds
continuously without stopping when you are
stuck and do not let anyone near a spinning
wheel, no matter what the speed.
TOW EYE USAGE
Your vehicle is equipped with a tow eye that can be
used to tow a disabled vehicle.
When using a tow eye be sure to follow the “Tow Eye
Usage Precautions” and the “Towing A Disabled Ve-
hicle” instructions in this section.

Tow Eye Usage Precautions
NOTE:
• Ensure that the tow eye is properly seated andsecure in the mounting receptacle.
• The tow eye is recommended for use with an ap- proved tow bar and or rope.
• Do not use the tow eye to pull the vehicle onto a flatbed truck.
• Do not use the tow eye to free a stuck vehicle. Refer to “Freeing A Stuck Vehicle” in this section for
further information.
WARNING!

• Do not use a chain with a tow eye. Chains may
break, causing serious injury or death.
• Donotuseatowstrapwithatoweye.Tow
straps may break or become disengaged, causing
serious injury or death.
• Failure to follow proper tow eye usage may
cause components to break resulting in serious
injury or death.
(fig. 194)
• The tow eye must be used exclusively
for roadside assistance operations. Only
use the tow eye with an appropriate
device in accordance with the highway code (a
rigid bar or rope) to flat tow the vehicle for a shor t
distance to the nearest service location.
• Tow eyes MUST NOT be used to tow vehicles
off the road or where there are obstacles.
• In compliance with the above conditions, tow-
ing with a tow eye must take place with two
vehicles (one towing, the other towed) aligned as
much as possible along the same center line.
Damage to your vehicle may occur if these guide-
lines are not followed.

Proper towing or lifting equipment is required to pre-
vent damage to your vehicle. Use only tow bars and
other equipment designed for this purpose, following
equipment manufacturer’s instructions. Use of safety
chains is mandatory. Attach a tow bar or other towing
device to main structural members of the vehicle, not
to bumpers or associated brackets. State and local laws
regarding vehicles under tow must be observed. If you must use the accessories (wipers, defrosters,
etc.) while being towed, the ignition must be in the
ON/RUN position, not the ACC position.
If the vehicle's battery is discharged, refer to "Shift
Lever Override" in this section for instructions on
shifting the automatic transmission out of PARK for
towing.
