Chevrolet Trax: Towing the Vehicle
Caution
Incorrectly towing a disabled vehicle may cause damage. The damage would not be covered by the vehicle warranty.
Have the vehicle towed on a flatbed car carrier or a wheel lift tow truck.
If a wheel lift tow truck is used, the drive wheels cannot contact the road while the vehicle is being towed. A wheel dolly must be used to lift all drive wheels off the ground.
Caution
Improper use of the tow eye can cause vehicle damage. Use caution and low speeds to prevent damage to the vehicle.
If equipped, carefully open the cover by using the small notch that conceals the tow eye socket.
Install the tow eye into the socket by turning it clockwise until it stops.
When the tow eye is removed, reinstall the cover with the notch in the original position.
Consult your dealer or a professional towing service if the disabled vehicle must be towed.
