The tow hook on a Subaru Crosstrek is located at the rear of the vehicle. To access it, you will need to remove the plastic cover from the bottom of the car. The tow truck driver can then screw the tow hook into the designated location and attach the winch cable to it for towing purposes.
Please note that the tow hook on the Subaru Crosstrek is not designed for vehicle recovery. It is primarily used for straight-line towing, such as loading the vehicle onto a roll-back style wrecker. If you require vehicle recovery, it is recommended to use the OEM tow hook provided by the manufacturer or consult a professional recovery company.
It’s important to follow the manufacturer’s guidelines and recommendations when using the tow hook to ensure safe and proper usage.
