    I've used them before. The interaction while requiring their business, through AAA, was professional enough, and I do not remember if they were worth it or not (price wise) but, admittedly, prior to this interaction, I would have used them again. However, It was their professionalism outside of our contract that was completely inappropriate. Inappropriate enough for me to file a report with the police department, as well as with AAA. Though I know full well nothing will come of it. On one of my regular routes, driving down Jefferson, the towing truck pulled up next to me. At first, I thought the driver was trying to catch my attention, or catch my eye. I had been behind him prior, but had made my way in front of him. (Several minutes prior to this encounter, the truck, along with the rest of the traffic we were in, was in the same group, trucks are hard to miss) as far as I know, there would not have been a reason for the road rage, if this was that. However, I, after turning towards him, realized he was being angry and aggressive. He was hanging of his car window, almost mocking me, (as I sang to the radio). I turned the radio up, and looked away, but he persisted. He continued to make aggressive and inappropriate gestures towards me. He maneuvered his vehicle to be behind me at one point, even after using his right turn signal. Up until then, I had been led to believe the encounter was almost over. When it wasn't I called into the office in a panic, trying to figure out what was going on. I will admit to screaming and cursing. It was my first interaction with such an aggressive type of man, one I have only had the pleasure to read about in horror stories and see in movies. This guy makes the back of your hair stand up.. I use the word inappropriate, but there isn't a word for this type of behavior. She, the woman on the phone, did not believe the driver was in the wrong, or had done anything wrong, and she did not even know who it was I was speaking of yet, but the woman on the phone called me a liar, and hung up. I called back with the plate number after I pulled over, and told her I was calling the cops. I don't know who ended that call, but I didn't care. I called the police. The officer had already been made informed by the blacks of my pending call. He had already spoken to them. Now, I'm not sure exactly what he thought I did to him, to deserve what he did to me. I'm not sure why a company would stand by a man who would want to instill fear into any driver, especially a woman anyway. Nor would continue to employ a driver who clearly needs to work on his rage. My complaints went unheard with them, and that's ok. I hope I was wrong about that man. I hope I got the wrong impression of him, but hope is sometimes all we have.. I hope even more that he reflects on what THAT type of behavior could come across as..... TERRIFYING TO WOMEN.... The question is, why.. why would he want to instill this type of fear? Does he feel good about it? What did I do to deserve all of that? Ask him. I did express my worry here, I need too. I would not be doing my duty to women, one's who are looking for a service they can count on, a service without fear, if I did not. My takeaway from the experience is: 1. Drivers should be respectful at all times, as they are a representation of your company, as well as AAA. 2. All employees, especially Drivers, should undergo sexual harassment education, and perhaps gender sensitivity education. 3. Documentation should be occurring, in case a pattern develops(ed), with this, or any other employee. Please document this in HIS employee records. 4. Videos focusing on the drivers face would keep them a bit more honest, had a video seen his face during this encounter, I have no doubts that I would be holding an apology, while he was either fired or reprimanded for such a distasteful encounter. 5. Training videos for complaints will help with customer service. Your phone operator should be able to handle panic. Calls for tows happen under stressful conditions. Understanding calms a situation. Now I will not be using their business again, the encounter was extremely unprofessional, lacked customer service, and opened up a space that can create an unsafe event in the future. Even more, I was made to feel "dramatic" about the event, so, with as much dramatic flare as I can muster, I leave with this quote from Margaret Atwood: "Men are afraid that women will laugh at them. Women are afraid that men will kill them." Road rage, anger, hate, just a bad day... whatever you call that, it was inappropriate.

    I got stuck in a remote location in Wildomar trying to turn around on a rutted up hill dirt area…read more Gabriel from Steve's Towing was a true gentleman and geniously and carefully got me unstuck and winched out of my precarious position. I was so grateful. Truly a professional who knew what he was doing. Thank you!

    I have been blessed to have Steve's Towing as an excellect!, service provider through the 14 years…read moreI have lived on Lake Elsinore. I have needed Steve's and accessed them through AAA multiple times. I have NEVER been dissatisfied with the service, timely response and/or technician knowledge or care. Most recently I lost my key and the locksmith wanted $500 to help me and I felt him rude and unhelpful.n Fortunately, Gabriel with Steve's rescued me. Gabriel showed up in a VERY timely response time, especially for a holiday! My car and I were transported to my home where I was able to recover my xtra key. Gabriel was knowledgeable, caring (I'm a senior), and shared my options and his know to help me. I've been blessed to have Steve's help me on multiple occasions, including a freeway accident. Every!!! time has been a positive experience, all things considered. Thank you so...very much Gabriel and Steve's for the level of service and care you consistently provide. If only every business shared your knowledge, excellence and care this crazy world would be such a better place. Again, thank you and sincere appreciation for Gabriel and Steve's for the CONSISTENT level of customer service you provide
