Warning: If towed incorrectly, your vehicle may be damaged!
If your vehicle needs to be towed, it should be done by your authorized Hyundai dealer or a professional towing service. This will help you avoid damaging your vehicle during towing. In addition, towing service professionals are usually familiar with the rules and laws related to towing vehicles. In any case, we recommend that you show this information to the tow truck operator. Make sure to use safety chains and comply with local regulations.
If the vehicle is towed with the rear wheels on the road, make sure the parking brake is released.
Make sure the ignition key is in the "ACC" (Accessory) position. This is to prevent damage to the steering wheel lock mechanism, which is not designed to hold the front wheels in a straight-ahead position when the vehicle is towed.
In case of damage to any of the loaded wheel or suspension parts, a towing dolly must be used.
Caution: When towing a vehicle with the front wheels raised off the ground, a towing vehicle with a wheel lift mechanism must be used. Otherwise, such towing may cause serious damage to the front suspension components.
Towing a car with an automatic transmission
Warning: Do not tow vehicles with automatic transmission rear-end first with the rear wheels off the ground and the front wheels on the ground. This could seriously damage the transmission. If it is necessary to tow the vehicle with the rear part raised, the front wheels must be on the towing dolly.
If the vehicle is towed with the rear wheels on the road, make sure the parking brake is released.
Note: Before towing, check the automatic transmission fluid level. If it is below the "HOT" (Hot) mark on the dipstick, add fluid. If you cannot add fluid, you will need to use a towing dolly.
