If the water is deeper than the wheel

hubs, some additional service may be

required. This service is not covered

by your warranties.

If You Get Stuck

If you get stuck, carefully try to go in

the direction (forward or reverse)

that you think will get you unstuck.

Do not spin the tires at high speeds.

It will not help you get out and may

cause damage to the transmission or

SH-AWD system.

If you are still unable to free yourself,

your vehicle is equipped with front

and rear tow hooks designed for this

purpose.

Use a nylon strap to attach the MDX

to the recovery vehicle and carefully

take out the slack in the strap. Once

the strap is tight, the recovery

vehicle should apply force.

Remember that the recovery vehicle

needs good traction to avoid

becoming stuck, too.

You should never use a jack to try to

get unstuck. Your vehicle could

easily slip off the jack and hurt you or

someone else.

Towing a Trailer Off-Road

You may be able to safely tow a

lightweight trailer (such as a

motorcycle or small tent trailer) off-

road if you follow these guidelines:

●

Do not exceed 1,000 lbs (450 kg)

or a tongue weight of 100 lbs

●

Stay on smooth, level dirt roads,

and avoid driving in hilly terrain.

●

Allow extra room for starting,

stopping, and turning.

●

Slow down if you encounter bumps

or other obstacles.
