Dodge Nitro: Recreational towing (behind motorhome, etc.)
Two-Wheel Drive Models
All Four Wheels On The Ground
Recreational towing is allowed ONLY if the driveshaft is removed. Towing with the rear wheels on the ground while the driveshaft is connected can result in severe transmission damage.
WARNING: If the driveshaft is removed, the vehicle can roll even if the transmission is in PARK, which could cause serious injury or death.
The parking brake must be firmly engaged and the wheels chocked during driveshaft removal and installation. The parking brake must remain engaged unless the vehicle is securely and properly connected to the tow vehicle, or the driveshaft is completely reinstalled. See your authorized dealer for proper driveshaft removal and reinstallation procedures, including flange orientation/alignment, use of thread-locking compound, proper bolt torque specifications, etc.
NOTE: This vehicle may be towed on a flatbed or vehicle trailer provided all four wheels are OFF the ground.
