Absolutely an amazing experience. Glenn, was very professional and extremely helpful throughout the entire process. I really appreciate the flexibility they demonstrated. My son rolled his car and Adamsons towed vehicle to their yard. read more

Scheduled a flat bed tow via AAA to the body shop that did work for my classic car, ( that had just repainted the complete car in November). the guy loaded it up and then drove through branches of a tree that bordered our driveway then was unable to make a hard left out of the driveway on to the road . Thus as a result had to back up to make the turn, he backed up into the tree! This resulted in multiple scratches along the full length of the hood, left door and the tailgate that we could not buff out. We provided pics and 3 videos taken by cameras mounted on the house. So there was no question as to how those how the scratches resulted on the car. Owner ( Miguel) initially denied that scratches could be result of their incompetence , so the videos were provided to him. We never received a call back to discuss their rectifying the issue. Most probably will end up in small claims court to receive compensation. read more

Today i was at Piedra Blanca Trailhead and i was approached by an elder man who was in need of contacting AAA. Keep in mind the location where the car was broken down no cell phone service is available. I offered the man a ride where he could be able to get service for his cell phone. He contacted AAA and was Adamson will arrive in approx. 45 min. In short Adamson never arrived in about a 3 hour period. I recommend to everyone to avoid Adamson Towing as they are not reliable.

i needed help with a tire change as my truck was on a hill. They came within 15 minutes, and changed the tire. Polite and very nice. Highly recommended. read more

My husband was in a minor car accident and Adamson's towing towed his car. They brought it to their location since the damage was significant and we were expecting the insurance to declare it a total loss. Our insurance kind of dropped the ball on that and didn't even get to looking at our file for a week, but Adamson's was nice about it and didn't give us any trouble. I wasn't there when they towed it but I did show up later to pick up my husband. I talked to the guys who were on duty and they were both very nice and easy going. Their office is in Ojai, not hard to find but I did drive by it the first time. From the main street you can just see their sign and not the office. Helpful and professional. I would not hesitate to call them if I needed help. read more

The towing service is great but Steve and Adamson Tire is awesome. My fourth visit to Adamson Tire and I will be back. They do repairs and tires. Honest people! Yes! read more

Thank you from dispatch to Miguel the owner/ driver who came out on this super rainy day and got my sons car out of the ditch after spinning out. read more

I just had a tire repair done and their technician was so efficient. I feel very fortunate he was able to help me right away. The best experience ever at a tire shop. Can't believe I'm back on the road already! read more

Miguel was top notch amazing and friendly. He was polite, really quick and just a great person. Mariana so kind and helpful as we ran late to meet them for the pickup due to traffic. She pushed the time back and then followed up to let me know they were on the way. I would use Adamsons every time!! read more

Very fast response to my tow request. Jack was very polite and helpful and took great care to winch my Audi up onto the flatbed. I have had careless tow drivers damage my car in the past, but Jack was a true professional - treating my car as it if were his own showcar. Towed it to my dealership for repairs on the electrical system caused by rodents. Thanks again for the great service! read more

Manuel and Ysidro were knowledgable, friendly and super helpful. They arrived in minutes and problem solved a difficult tow. Their promptness, their experience and their gold standard customer care (which isn't easy on the side of the road!) is the absolute best! Highly recommend. read more

Adamson's Towing - Bypassed transmission successfully! - Towing Near Me - Ojai, California

Absolutely the worst towing company I have ever had the displeasure of working with. 2 hours for a tire change no courtesy call no updates an arrival times office doesnt answer the phones and the worst part is this isnt the first time either. This is about the 3rd time this has happened on separate occasions if I could give them negative stars trust me I would I am also going to file a complaint with triple A about this read more

Worst experience, still waiting, over 4.5hrs, this company sucks, go elsewhere, even AAA Said this is not acceptable service from there providers, read more

My first experience with this repair shop was so top notch that I can hardly wait till the next 5,000 miles are up so that I can go back again! Nice atmosphere, waiting room, heck, the place even smells nice! It's tucked away in the industrial park area of Ojai, but it's also right off of Ojai Ave., past Chisum's on the left. Glenn, the owner, greeted me and introduced himself. He's a very personable man who literally rolled up his sleeves right in front of me. He has been in business there for 36 years! Took over at the age of 19 when his dad passed on. Such a sweet person. I will always feel comfortable bringing my car there for service. What a great experience! I'm truly blown away. Glenn showed me a list of all of the things that my car needed to have checked at 35,000 miles, and he repaired a tire that had a nail in it for free! I'm a huge fan. I really hope more people can find this place. They deserve to have as much business as they can handle :). read more

Helped us with our car which had a flat tire in the Ojai area. When Mercedes couldn't help us find replacement tire, Adamson led us to a nearby vendor to make sure we were well taken care of! read more

I had almost $2000 worth of damage done to my car by improper wiring work done here. Glen insists that the work is insured when you pay, to explain why it is expensive. But he was only willing to pay the base sum of $30 for his 'insured' work. My car runs great now and my mechanic swears that Glen was wrong to tell me it was safe to drive and that the wire damage he had to fix and replace is accountable to the last mechanic to look at it. AAA shouldn't endorse the monopoly they have on towing in Ojai if they can't actually back their work... read more

I met with the owner last night. Very nice guy. Straight up no gimmicks. Very nice waiting area too. WOW!!! what a nice shop. I thought maybe I was in the wrong building. This place is super nice and friendly. Thats for the advice and not just taking my cash. I am impressed. read more

Awesome people! From the appointment to pick-up, the entire staff was great! Everyone was so kind. The waiting area is cool, smells wonderful and has a TV! I will not go anywhere else!!! read more

My truck broke down Ojai, 80 miles from home in L.A. I had the truck towed to Adamson's from The Ojai Valley Inn & Spa, where I was for some corporate thing, but probably one of the most expensive places in town. Seemed like a recipe for a mechanic I don't have a relationship with charging someone from out of town who probably won't be a repeat customer a lot of money. Nope, Glenn Adamson, the owner, found me a cheaper remanufactured part instead of a new part from a local Nissan dealer (savings: $1,350). They came in $1 under the estimated price of service, finished the vehicle when they said they would, and were happy to have me pick it up or have AAA tow it to me in L.A. When I showed up in person to pick it up, he happily printed out a sheet showing me my future regular maintenance schedule. Friendly, honest, fast, truck is running great. 5 stars. read more

I've had the worst week ever so the last thing I needed was for me to lock my rental car key in the car. Adamson's was very quick in attending me and Paul unlocked my rental car. read more

Had a dead car battery and AAA sent Gary over within 15 minutes. He was super friendly and nice and did some extra tests on the battery etc that weren't required of him, which was really great! Fast, efficient, professional, and so friendly! Thanks Gary and Adamsons! read more

Just passing through Ojai for a vacation getaway, when I noticed a rattling sound above my tire. Came here bc of all the 5 star reviews. Thank the goddess for yelp, bc the mechanic Denis was outstanding. He looked at the car first thing in the am and fixed it for super cheap. Plus he noticed my battery was failing as my car started. I had just been to the mazda dealer in Glendale last week to get an oil change and full inspection--they missed that failing battery. The guys at adamsons are super honest, friendly and reliable. I just wish they were located in LA Where I live. read more

We had a great experience working with Miguel. I was amazed at his dedication to get our situation resolved. I felt he did his best and worked with compassion for a resolution. If we ever need auto services in the Ojai area we will call this place first. read more

Miguel was awesome and was such a great help! We appreciated you guys so much! Miguel also made sure all the other mechanical systems in our car were working properly by testing them. I can't tell you how nice it is who have someone who is knowledgable helping out in a time of need! Miguel gets 5 stars from us!! read more

Not the same owner with solid, reputable reputation. Adamson's towed car to yard assuring that the yard was secure. Reiterating that no one has access but employees. Valuables were immediately taken from the car at yard arrival. Requesting to have personal items returned, all employees quickly exited the office and disappeared. Bad business practice to take advantage of individuals in a vulnerable position after serious accident. Be careful doing any business with Adamson's. Quickly they have a new reputation of theft from other consumers suffering the same fate. read more

I'm just amazed at how quick the service was with this company! I was referred by the mechanic from Hodge Podge auto repair here in Oakview. Called them.. and they came within 20 minutes!! They were also very friendly! read more

On a recent camping trip to lake casitas our truck's battery died. We were all packed and ready to head back home. We needed a quick fix as checkout time was less than an hour away. We called AAA and they sent out Gary from Adamson's Automotive Repair & Towing. He was super friendly and helpful. He had our truck running in just a couple minutes. He even gave us a few helpful tips on how to prevent this from happening again. He saved the day and we are grateful to him for that! read more

Glen is a great guy and has helped my family with 5 vehicles, has towed 2 cars for me and does GREAT work. Highly recommended. Thank you to Glen and his wonderful staff and friendly service. read more

Thank you Glen, Kim, Ann, Miguel and Dennis for having such wonderful service and hospitality. I always feel comfortable and know that my car is in the right hands! If your looking for place to have your car serviced or fixed, this is the place for you. Just a short ride to Ojai you will not be disappointed. read more

Adamson's Automotive came to my rescue!They had a can-do attitude when I needed that most - after I crashed my car on black ice. The tow truck operator was kind and knowledgeable. He took my car to the shop in Ojai, and they treated me respectfully as they found time to look my car over, and eventually send me on my way. read more

they should not be contracted with aaa. waited for a hour for the driver with no updates via text. called aaa and they had not gotten a update either. so i called adamson's myself and was told it was going to be another hour. i waited 2 hours for them to show up and i was in oak view.......smh. contacting aaa to make a complaint about the woman who answered the phone and the 2 hour wait with no updates via text as i was on the phone with adamson's thats when i got a update. what shitty service!!!!!!! read more

Thought I'd give a quick update since it's been 2 years since my post - Adamson's is still the 'bomb'! I have told everyone about them from San Miguel to Simi! A quick funny, I had a friend (female) visit from Paso Robles, and she told me her car needed service (aka running hot, and some brake issues) that needed service when she got home. Me - go to Adamson's! I talked her into it, but money was tight for her. Adamson took care of her, and even gave her instructions on how her husband could fix some problems that could be delayed for a bit of time. Well Hubby didn't find time to fix the problem(s), and on a trip to San Francisco the car died. I bet ya'll know how that conversation went with her Hubby (chuckle)....Adamson's said all you needed to do was...., and you didn't do it so now the repair bill is.... She and her Hubby are now diehard Adamson fans (like me)! Heck, they are now willing to drive to Ojai to get their car serviced! I hate to say this, but after one visit to Adamson's you to will be a diehard fan also. I really like they are Ojai's secret, but you can't help yourself (after the first visit) from shouting from the mountain tops they are unbelievable after being ripped off by dealerships and other repair shops (chuckle)! Who'd believe - a real, honest auto repair shop..in the towing business (Hello Separanos!)...and one you can REALLY trust! This is still the only place I will now take my car/truck to for service - and everyone I've referred to them are now 'true believers' like me (smile). read more

Ok where do I start....this establishment is amazing!! I am a girl yes, but I am a girl who has been around cars her whole life so I am not a dummy. I took my car here because my light came on for coolant. Thats all I needed checked. Low and behold, they work on BMW's here...yes! Not many places work on German cars. They were a little busy but I did not mind. I told them what was going on, and was helped. One of the mechanics went out to my car with me, filled the coolant and I was on my way. I will definitely come back here if I have any troubles again! read more

The people at Adamsons were some of the nicest people to deal with. I came in with a minor issue on our van and they greeted me with such warm hospitality. Offering me water and a comfortable spot to sit and watch tv during the process. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. read more

Christian was the driver that responded to my AAA lockout call: he was excellent! Polite, skilled, and very timely. So thankful for the quick response. read more

Dropped by without an appointment during my recent visit to Ojai. My engine was dripping some kind of liquid pretty quickly and I was worried since I drive an older SUV with prior issues. Glenn apologized for the mere 5 min wait (what mechanic does that these days?!) but then had someone look at the truck for me. Turned out it was just A/C condensation. They charged me nothing but my pride. Thanks for the quick reassurance, Glenn and company! read more

This towing company is beyond professional and are a whole team of great people. I got stuck in the Ojai mountains, without service and keys to the car lost. After a long story of trekking to service and literally waiting on a side of a highway for our tow truck driver, Rob saved the day as well as went above and beyond the call of duty. Thank you very much to both Rob and the owner for taking care of us! Even the dog on the lot, Tank, was awesome. read more

We have been taking our cars to Glenn ever since we moved to the Ojai valley many years ago. This place is trustworthy, reliable, friendly and they know what they are talking about. I fully trust them, and aside they are super friendly and very nice people. I wouldn't think of taking my cars to any other place. HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION!!! read more

My car broke down recently while in Ojai. Was visiting my brother so asked him and his friends (all car guys/dirtbike guys/do- it- yourself guys) for an automotive repair recommendation. The consensus is that if you want a good mechanic, the place to go is Adamson's Automotive. The shop is super clean and organized (the first sign that someone pays attention to detail!) The repair was done right the first time, plus he noted a few other areas of concern (shift-shaft seal leak I didn't know about, so the transmission fluid was a quart low). Feel like I found an honest, hardworking mechanic and he charges a fair price. Highly recommend Adamson's !! read more

The brakes on my Honda 2003 Accord were in need of repair, the shop across town could not take an appointment till 2 days later. I called Adamson's and they immediately called me back and said to bring the car in. These guys are reliable, dependable and full of integrity. The best Customer Service in town.!! Glenn knows most of his customers on a first name basis and it's his attention to detail that sets his business apart. They did an excellent job on the brakes but also checked an air filter that had overlooked by a previous mechanic. We highly recommend Adamson's they have a long history of providing the best for their Customers. Glady Castro Ojai read more
