Jeep Wrangler: TOWING A DISABLED VEHICLE / Four Wheel Drive Models
FCA US LLC recommends towing with all wheels
OFF the ground. Acceptable methods are to tow
the vehicle on a flatbed or with one end of the
vehicle raised and the opposite end on a towing
dolly.
If flatbed equipment is not available and the
transfer case is operable, the vehicle may be
towed (in the forward direction, with ALL wheels
on the ground), IF the transfer case is in
NEUTRAL (N) and the transmission is in PARK
(P) (for automatic transmissions) or in gear NOT
in NEUTRAL, for manual transmissions).
CAUTION!
- Front or rear wheel lifts must not be used (if
the remaining wheels are on the ground).
Internal damage to the transmission or
transfer case will occur if a front or rear
wheel lift is used when towing.
- Towing this vehicle in violation of the above
requirements can cause severe transmission
and/or transfer case damage.
Damage from improper towing is not
covered under the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
