What are the consequences of forcibly towing a vehicle in P gear?
1 Answers
The consequence of forcibly towing a vehicle in P gear is damage to the locking mechanism of the P gear. Below is an introduction to the related content: 1. Locking the wheels: Both P gear and N gear can be used when parking, but they are different. When P gear is engaged, the locking mechanism inside the transmission can lock the transmission gears, which is equivalent to indirectly locking the wheels. 2. Usage: If P gear is engaged, even without applying the handbrake, the car cannot move. When N gear is engaged, there is no locking mechanism to lock the transmission gears, and the connection between the transmission and the wheels may also be disconnected, allowing the car to move freely. P gear is used when parking and turning off the engine, while N gear is used for short-term parking without turning off the engine.
