Dodge Charger: TOWING A DISABLED VEHICLE / Rear Wheel Drive (RWD) Models
FCA US LLC recommends towing your vehicle with all four wheels OFF the ground
using a flatbed.
If flatbed equipment is not available, and the transmission is operable, this
vehicle may be flat towed (with all four wheels on the ground) under the following
conditions:
- The transmission must be in NEUTRAL (N). Instructions on shifting the transmission
to NEUTRAL (N) when the engine is off.
- The towing speed must not exceed 30 mph (48 km/h).
- The towing distance must not exceed 30 miles (48 km).
If the transmission is not operable, or the vehicle must be towed faster than
30 mph (48 km/h) or farther than 30 miles (48 km), then the only acceptable method
of towing is with a flatbed truck.
