When your vehicle is being towed, have the ignition key off. The steering
wheel should be clamped in a straight-ahead position, with a clamping
device designed for towing service.
Do not use the vehicle’s steering
column lock for this. The transaxle should be in Neutral and the parking
brake released.
Don’t have
your vehicle towed on the front wheels, unless you must. If
the vehicle must be towed on the front wheels, don’t go more than 55
mph (88 km) or farther than 500 miles (800 km) or your transaxle will be
damaged.
If these limits must be exceeded, then the front wheels have to
be supported on a dolly.
