Proper towing or lifting equipment is required to prevent
damage to your vehicle. Use only tow bars and other
equipment designed for this purpose, following equip-
ment 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 fascia/
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 mode, not the ACC mode.
If the key fob is unavailable or the vehicle's battery is
discharged, find Instructions on shifting the transmis-
sion out of PARK
page 190.
CAUTION!
•
Do not use sling type equipment when towing.
Vehicle damage may occur.
•
When securing the vehicle to a flat bed truck, do
not attach to front or rear suspension components.
Damage to your vehicle may result from improper
towing.
•
FCA US LLC does not recommend towing this
vehicle using a tow dolly. Vehicle damage may
occur.
ALL WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) MODELS
— IF EQUIPPED
FCA US LLC recommends towing your vehicle with all
four wheels OFF the ground using a flatbed.
If the transmission and driveline are operable, AWD
models can also be towed with the ignition in the
ON/RUN mode, the transmission in NEUTRAL (not in
PARK!), and the rear wheels OFF the ground with no
limitation on speed or distance. Since the ignition MUST
be in the ON/RUN mode to tow in this manner, AWD
vehicles must be towed with ALL FOUR wheels OFF the
ground (e.g. on a flatbed truck) if the key fob is
unavailable.
CAUTION!
•
Towing this vehicle using any other method can
cause severe transmission and/or transfer case
damage.
•
Damage from improper towing is not covered
under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
REAR-WHEEL DRIVE (RWD) MODELS
FCA US LLC recommends towing your vehicle with all
four wheels OFF the ground using a flatbed.
If flatbed equipment is not available, and the transmis-
sion is operable, the vehicle may be flat towed (with all
four wheels on the ground) under the following
conditions:
•
The transmission must be in NEUTRAL (N). Instruc-
tions on shifting the transmission to NEUTRAL (N)
when the engine is off
page 190.
•
The towing distance must not exceed 30 miles
(48 km).
•
The towing speed must not exceed 30 mph
(48 km/h).
If the transmission is not operable, or the vehicle must
be towed faster than 30 mph (48 km/h) or farther than
30 miles (48 km), then the only acceptable method of
towing is with a flatbed truck.
CAUTION!
Towing this vehicle in violation of the previously men-
tioned requirements can cause severe engine and/or
transmission damage. Damage from improper towing
is not covered under the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
