Towing Description

We recommend that towing be done only
by an Authorized Mazda Dealer or a
commercial tow-truck service.

Proper lifting and towing are necessary to
prevent damage to the vehicle.
Government and local laws must be
followed.

A towed vehicle usually should have its
rear wheels off the ground. If excessive
damage or other conditions prevent this,
use wheel dollies.

Wheel dollies

CAUTION

Don't tow the vehicle pointed forward
with driving wheels on the ground. This
may cause internal damage to the
transmission.

CAUTION

Don't tow with sling-type equipment.
This could damage your vehicle. Use
wheel-lift or flatbed equipment.
