Towing can be a little scary the first time but we’re here to help! You cannot flat tow a 2017 Jeep Renegade. If you want to tow your 2017 Jeep Renegade, you’ll need to use a dolly.
Flat towing is a towing method in which all four wheels of the towed vehicle touch the ground as it’s being pulled. It’s attached to the vehicle that pulls it by a tow bar.
On the other hand, dolly towing uses a mechanism to lift the vehicle’s front wheels while it’s being pulled along so that just the rear wheels touch the ground. Dolly towing is most often used to tow vehicles that have an automatic transmission and/or front-wheel drive.
Details for proper towing of your 2017 Jeep Renegade can be found in the owner’s manual.
