Towing Service FAQs
How long does it take for a tow truck to arrive?
Response times can vary depending on location, traffic, weather, and current demand, but quick assistance is a priority whenever possible.
Can my vehicle be towed if it will not start?
Yes. Vehicles can often be towed for dead battery issues, no-start conditions, mechanical failures, or other problems that prevent them from starting or being driven safely. AAA specifically notes towing is appropriate when a vehicle cannot be started or safely driven.
What should I do while waiting for a tow?
If possible, move the vehicle to a safer location, turn on your hazard lights, and stay in a safe place while waiting. If you are on a highway or in an unsafe area, roadside safety comes first. NHTSA says hazard flashers are intended to warn approaching drivers that a vehicle is stopped or moving much slower than traffic, and drivers should slow down and move over for stopped roadside vehicles with flashing lights.
Can you tow my vehicle to your shop for repair?
Yes. If your vehicle needs repair, towing it to Joe's Auto & Tire can make the next step easier since our team can inspect the vehicle and help determine what repair is needed once it arrives. AAA guidance also notes that towing directly to a repair facility is a common and practical option.
Do you only tow vehicles, or can you also repair them?
Joe's Auto & Tire is a full-service auto repair shop, so if your vehicle is towed to us, we can also help with diagnosis, maintenance, and repairs depending on the issue.
