I was up north with about 3 feet of snow this weekend and got my 2009 Jetta stuck.
The guy who pulled me out was looking for a place to put the tow strap. I looked in the manual and they give you a towing hook that you screw into the front or back of the vehicle.
VW gives you the tools to take the front cover off and the hook. You screw the hook into the front and attach your chain or strap.
It worked like a charm. Very interesting. The guy who pulled me out said it was a good idea and an American car company wouldn't give you the tools...
