    Using this towing services on a mega bad traffic day (680 freeway traffic was on the news) thanks AAA kept us communicated it still a super long wait, but it came with a great great services guy name Gulestan ( tow truck driver ) who drove 3 1/2 hours In that mega traffic to rescue us & another 3 1/2 hours got us to our destination. It was a day with multiple accidents, fire engines, police cars running around... Gulestan was awesome professional, friendly, helpful & skilled, yes, I 100% recommend this business.

    WHEN: Saturday @2pm After visiting with my sis in her backyard for brunch, we started our car that just wouldn't stay on. After trying to jump start, we had to go with our lat resort: have it towed. We chose A's Towing because they had great reviews (my partner looked it up so I'm not sure where). After they said they would arrive within half hour, they arrived within a half hour. Here's the quick and dirty lowdown: + Tow-Truck Driver: AJ + Distance: From Castro Valley to Alameda (20 min drive) + Time it took to tow the car: 10 minutes + Time it took to unload at car shop: 10 minutes. + Cost: $165 AJ was very friendly and professional. He's also VERY EFFICIENT. I was quite impressed just watching him! He clearly knew what he was doing. It was amazing watching him manually push the vehicle and align it with the ramp of the tow truck, hook the vehicle to have his engine pull, and strap it in. Him unloading the vehicle at the car shop took half the time and this was on a busy street. I'm really glad my first full towing experience was easy and smooth. Stress-Free! Thank you SO much AJ for your stellar service!

    The A's immaculate truck towing away my Westfalia.

    A's driver, Mirwis, was prompt, thoughtful, helpful and careful with my volkswagen vanagon. I'd recommend A's and especially Mirwis for when you need a tow!

    An awesome company!!!

    A family member recently passed, and we needed to have his hybrid car towed to the dealer as it had…read moresat in the parking garage for over three years. Basically a brand new car, this hybrid was dead, no power at all. I filled out the Yelp information stating the make and model of the car, the location in a parking garage and the circumstances of why I needed the tow. I had Yelp send out projects to four towing services. I chose ABC Road Services [I am confused by the different company name, listed in Google as F&G Towing, instead of ABC Road Services as listed in Yelp ...], as they were the cheapest quote. . . and the owner said he may be able to fix the problem without a tow. The owner came over and tried to charge the car's auxiliary battery. No go. He told me after fifteen minutes of attempted charging, that the battery was dead and the hybrid battery also had no power, and that we needed to tow the car. However, since the aux battery was dead, the car could not be put in reverse. Also, the flatbed he brought was too high to carry the car through the garage. He suggested buying a new battery to get power to place the car in neutral to roll it out to the truck. I went out to purchase a new replacement auxiliary battery and scheduled to have the tow company return the next day (as the dealer had already closed). Another tech came out, and first wanted to try charging the aux battery again. It worked! There was enough charge to start the vehicle, with no need for replacing the battery or towing the car to the dealer. The problem, according to the first technician, was that the charger that the owner brought was not compatible with the 12v battery. The second tech had a 12v charger. He told me to keep it running to charge the aux battery. He then left for another job. Unfortunately, after running the car for five minutes to charge up the battery, I turned off the car and it promptly died - again, no power. As I found out later through research, these hybrids often do not have alternators to regulate the battery charge, relying instead on regeneration by braking and by engine power. The first tech still was busy with another tow, and a second tech came out to switch out the battery. Viola! Power restored and the car could shut down without losing power! I followed his advice and put in a gas stabilizer and drove the car out to a gas station to fill up the tank. Fortunately, no extra charge for the first visit, as well as the two techs that came out. And since I didn't actually need a tow, I did not need to pay for towing. HOWEVER, if I did need a tow, the owner quoted $145 for tow up to 8 miles. The dealer was 5 miles away, so not bad. The first tech, asked me what had been quoted to me by the owner, and when I told him the tech said "Honestly, it will be $195 for the tow." Why the difference? I do not know, but that price change worried me. So, for the owner to give me the wrong quote upfront, and for the worries caused to me for due to the inability to charge the aux battery in the first place, I had to take off two stars for this review. If the two techs were the only ones I had to deal with, I would have given 5 stars for their time and service.

    I believe Wael Ayyash runs a dishonest business, scamming vulnerable and distressed people in need…read morebattery services. I chose and paid for a "2-year warranty" battery but Wael installed a lower "1-year warranty" battery in car instead. He charged me $248 for the lower level battery which costs $110 in Auto Zone. See enclosed photos. The authenticity of the photo was confirmed by Auto Zone sales. When I brought this up to Wael, he refused to refund the difference and argued that I misunderstood him. He also did not install the car battery properly with one side of the battery bracket not fastened, hanging loose on top of the battery. His manner was very unprofessional when being confronted with the truth. He took advantage of vulnerable and distressed people eager to get their cars started again. I would not recommend anyone to use this "businesses" for roadside assistance.

    DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY! THEY WILL TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOU!! This is for the owner, yes you TOMER!…read moreDo better!! Shame on you!! So we had an emergency today and my husband looked up the fastest towing company he could get. Unfortunately... these guys popped up. At first, we agreed on $695 from Belmont to San Jose. Honestly, I already thought that was a little high considering we had almost the same issue 2 months ago and paid around $620 INCLUDING tip from San Jose to South SF with a different towing company. The original plan was to drop the trailer off on First St. in San Jose, but parking became an issue so we had to bring it to our house instead, which was only about 3.4 miles away from the original drop off. Now let me make this clear -- I don't mind paying extra for extra work. I respect people's time, labor, and business. But somehow the total suddenly became $1500. YES, $1500. First explanation was because they had to call another tow truck to help unload it. But we SPECIFICALLY explained beforehand what kind of trailer it was and what situation we were dealing with. That should've already been factored into the quote before the job even started. Then the owner didn't want to talk to me at first because apparently he was at the hospital with his kid, which I completely understand and sympathize with. But after going back and forth with the other guy, I finally insisted on speaking directly to him before paying anything. And basically the conversation turned into:"Pay me or I'll take your trailer and you'll end up paying more." That's where things started feeling really sketchy. From $1500... then suddenly $1300... then $1200... and finally I told them all I had was $1000 cash. Now they still want another $100 on top of that. So in total I'm paying $1100 for a tow that originally started at $695. Again -- I'm not against paying what's fair. But transparency matters. If there are possible additional fees, say it upfront BEFORE holding someone's property hostage and threatening them with more charges. Emergencies already put people in stressful situations. Money matters, yes. But honesty and transparency matter too. Adding: The owner Tom left our small business a bad review after we shared our experience with his company. Mind you this guy never been to any of our location. Please do better Tom and instead of you going on a war review just focus on how to improve your business. It seems like we are not the only one based on your reviews. We could have been promoted your business but you are sketchy. Very dishonest and disappointing person! Do better for your kids!
