If emergency towing is necessary, we recommend having it done by an authorized


If emergency towing is necessary, we recommend having it done by an authorized EQUUS dealer or a commercial tow-truck service. Proper lifting and towing procedures are necessary to prevent damage to the vehicle. The use of wheel dollies or flatbed is recommended.

It is acceptable to tow the vehicle with the front wheels on the ground (without dollies) and the rear wheels off the ground.

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

When being towed by a commercial tow truck and wheel dollies are not used, the rear of the vehicle should always be lifted, not the front.

CAUTION

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