EXCELLENT Based on 414 reviews Posted on vanessaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. $250 to pull out of the median. Not too far off from the road, not a huge job. Apparently because the police called for tow this is why the cost was so high. Considering we were in Benton harbor…. I think it’s a smart way to get over on people. But I’m not a fan.Posted on Stevie LouTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tom pulled me off the highway today and I literally cannot thank him enough for the kindness and conversation. He kept me from having a complete meltdown and made sure I was warm and safe after getting my car to the shop. Thank you so much for your help on what was a miserable occasion !Posted on Jake MTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a nail in tire and needed it plugged.
