CAUTION

DO NOT tow AWD models with any of the wheels on the ground as this may cause serious and expensive damage to the powertrain.

Front-Wheel Drive models

NISSAN recommends that your vehicle be towed with the driving wheels (front) off the ground or place the vehicle on a flatbed truck as illustrated.
