Before towingThe following may indicate a problem with your transmission. Contact
your Lexus dealer before towing.

Emergency towing
If a tow truck is not available, in an emergency your vehicle may be tem-

cle’s wheels, drive train, axles, steering and brakes must be in good condi-
tion.
Towing eyelets
If towing is necessary, we recommend having your vehicle towed by your

and local laws.
If towing from the rear, the vehicle’s front wheels and axles must be in good
