1 Answers
Precautions for towing an automatic transmission vehicle are as follows: 1. Four-wheel drive: If your car is four-wheel drive, it cannot be towed. It must be transported on a flatbed. Towing a four-wheel-drive vehicle may cause damage to the transmission. 2. Release the handbrake: During the towing process, the handbrake must be released to allow the drive wheels to be towed. Additionally, ensure the gear is not in D (Drive) or P (Park) position, as towing in these gears can severely damage the transmission. 3. Shift to N (Neutral): If towing is necessary, first shift the vehicle into N (Neutral) position, minimize the towing distance, and maintain the lowest possible speed.
