Q: What if I lost my tow hook cover?
A: You can buy a replacement from your car manufacturer or an auto parts store.
Q: Do all cars have a front tow hook cover?
A: No, some cars have a tow hook integrated into the frame, while others use a rear tow hook only.
Q: Is the tow hook strong enough to pull my car?
A: Yes, if used correctly. It’s designed for towing, but always follow your vehicle’s manual for proper towing procedures.
