Vehicle Recovery (Freeing a stuck vehicle)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Nissan Armada. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Tow chains or cables must be attached only to the main structural members of the vehicle.
Pulling devices should be routed so they do not touch any part of the suspension, steering, brake or cooling systems
Always pull the cable straight out from the front or rear of the vehicle. Never pull the vehicle at a sideways angle.
Pulling devices such as ropes or canvas straps are not recommended for use for vehicle towing or recovery.
