Tow/Haul

Towing Services

If emergency towing is required, we recommend that you have it done by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer or a commercial towing service.

Correct lifting and towing procedures are necessary to prevent damage to the vehicle. Use of wheel dollies or a flatbed trailer is recommended.

The vehicle may be towed with the rear wheels on the ground (without a dolly) and the front wheels off the ground.

If any of the loaded wheels or suspension components are damaged, or if the vehicle is towed with the front wheels on the ground, use a towing dolly under the front wheels.

When towing with a commercial tow truck, dollies and wheel lifts are not used; the front of the vehicle must always be lifted, not the rear.

CAUTION

• Do not tow the vehicle with the front wheels on the ground, as this may cause damage to the vehicle.

• Do not tow using slings. Use a wheel lift or flatbed equipment.

• Do not tow the vehicle with all four wheels touching the ground if the vehicle is equipped with an IVT.

Otherwise, the transaxle will be seriously damaged. Also make sure not to tow the vehicle while connected to other vehicles, including camper trailers.

WARNING

If your vehicle is equipped with a rollover sensor, place the ignition switch in the LOCK/OFF or ACC position when towing the vehicle. The side airbag and curtain airbag may deploy if the sensor detects a situation such as a rollover.

When towing the vehicle in an emergency without wheel dollies:

1. Place the ignition key in the ACC position.

2. Shift the shift lever to the N (Neutral) position.

3. Release the parking brake.

CAUTION

Failure to place the shift lever in N (Neutral) when towing with the front wheels on the ground may cause internal damage to the transmission.
