Where to place the jack under the car?

Where you need to place the jack under the car depends on the type of vehicle. You should always place the jack at the jack points. These are the designated spots under the car designed for lifting. Placing the jack at these points helps prevent damage to the underside of the car. In most cases, the jack should be positioned near the door, right next to the wheel arch. To be sure, check your car’s manual to see exactly where the jack points are for your specific model.
