Rocking Your Vehicle
to
Get
it
Out:
First,
turn
your steering wheel left and
right. That will clear the area around
your front wheels. Then shift back and
forth between
R
(Reverse) and
a
forward gear, or with a manual
transaxle, between
1
or
2
and
R
(Reverse),
spinning the wheels as little as possible.
Release the accelerator pedal while you
shift, and press lightly on the
accelerator pedal when the transaxle is
in
gear.
If
that doesn’t get you out after a
few tries, you may need to be towed out.
If
you do need to be towed out, see
the
Index
under
Towing
Your
Pontiac.
