IF YOUR VEHICLE NEEDS
TO BE TOWED
If towing is necessary, we recommend you have it done by
your Lexus dealer or a commercial tow truck service.
Proper equipment will help ensure that your vehicle is not
damaged while being towed. Commercial operators are
generally aware of the state / provincial and local laws
pertaining to towing.
Your vehicle can be damaged if it is towed incorrectly. Although
most operators know the correct procedure, it is possible to
make a mistake. To avoid damage to your vehicle, make sure
the following few precautions are observed. If necessary, show
this page to the tow truck driver.
TOWING PRECAUTIONS:
Use a safety chain system for all towing, and abide by the
state / provincial and local laws. The wheels and axle on the
ground must be in good condition. If they are damaged, use a
towing dolly.
For vehicles equipped with the height control system, turn the
height control ON / OFF switch to OFF before towing the
vehicle. See page 133.1. Using flat bed truck
Lexus recommends this as the best method for your vehicle..
