Mike B.

Was at the Gilmore Museum which my 43Ft motorhome experienced engine problems and required a tow to Grand Rapids. Driver showed up quickly and was very professional. Since my motorhome is already 13'6" tall the tow made avoiding trees even more difficult, but the driver did an excellent job avoiding anything that would have scratched the coach. Seriously could not have been happier with the level of service.

MY front bumper after having it towed by lightning recovery... They ripped my bumper off and put it back on wrong hoping I wouldn't notice.

Lack or professionalism, dishonest and ignorant. Refused to change my tire as a contractor for AAA. Made false claims and attempted to spread misinformation/interpret law instead of changing the tire as he was called out to do. It's best to stay in your lane buddy read more

These people will railroad you any chance they get. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. If your insurance company sends them, cancel it. They make more money from impounding your vehicle then actually helping the community. read more

Horrible company ...scam business is what they are running...Had my car towed from an area that had no "TOW ZONE" signs. they charged me $500.00 to get my car back! Basically a hostage situations that I experienced. they parking area where the towing took place also had an employee working for them that called for the tow! Sure appears that this company does not operate professionally nor ethically. They also made me wait til the next day to get my car back when I was only minutes away from their business! read more

The guy who towed my car ripped my bumper off and then put it on wrong... When I called the company I was told there was nothing they could do for me... Basically its not their problem... When their driver is the one who ripped it off and put it on wrong... I will NEVER use them again and strongly suggest nobody else does either... Call Brock Towing for someone who has some integrity and respect... read more

**Update 1 Aug 2024**…read more I went back thru the carwash yesterday and both of my issues had been remedied/corrected. The air dryer ran for the full cycle and I checked 3 of the 4 card swipers (4th bay was out of order) and my card did not get snagged whatsoever. Owner has been very quick to respond to messages and also taking action on repairs. I like that the touchless carwash has 4 selections and does a good job of reaching all areas of even my larger pickup. I have been using this facility since it opened a couple years ago. I was excited considering I would drive all the way to Marshall to use their touchless but now have a facility about 5 minutes away. Over the past 2 years the dryer function has deteriorated with a majority of the time it only running for about 15 seconds before shutting off, even though we pay for 60 seconds. 2nd issue is the card swipers in the bay's. Not only do 2 of them not read cards, but 1 of them actually "chews" up the edges of your card, peeling back the lamination and scuffs/scratches the magnetic strip on the back of the card. The convenience of the ability to use credit/debit cards in the bays would be great if they could actually be used. The reliability concerns with the touchless drive-thru dryer are all enough to send me back to my original wash in Marshall. It's worth the longer drive (15-20ish minutes 1 way) for the peace of mind knowing their equipment has never let me down. ** Update ** I did post on 2 platforms. I found the facebook site after this one and had the opportunity to message directly with the owner. I feel that they listened to my concerns and took them seriously. I will revise both this rating and the Facebook once the requested repairs to their facility have been made.

Filthy, thieving people operate this business. They dont follow any policies set in place to keep repo agencies honest and they take whatever personal property they get their hands on. They don't write itemization lists on the personal property found in the vehicles they tow and they forced you to pay $100 to claim whatever is left of your personal property (after they ransack and steal your things.) They are pathetically desperate for even the bag of change you leave in your car....they are DISGUSTING PEOPLE. and I will file complaints to all the appropriate agencies. read more

Stole my truck. Illegally repossessed and admit to going into private GATED property refuse to return vehicle. Got a lawyer and sueing. They will now be liable for the entire cost of the vehicle. These are not professionals they are criminals and they count on you not knowing your rights or pursuing legal action. If they break the law go after them! They have a history of it and will hopefully shut down soon. A bunch of unethical law breaking criminals. read more

Lightning Recovery was the best again. I had a flat tire on US 131 and was quite nervous by all of the bad traffic not getting over. The driver from Lightning Recovery assisted me very safely to his truck, towed me to the nearest repair facility and even escorted me to the Service desk. He made sure I was okay before he left. read more
