This is what the pothole did to my tire

I can't thank David from A Performance Towing enough! We were stranded near Big Bear with both tires blown out from a pothole, and every towing company we called refused to help or make the drive. Luckily, David stepped up when no one else would. Not only did he manage to tow us out of a tricky spot with ease, but he also made the entire experience stress-free. He was incredibly friendly, professional, and a safe driver--making the ride down comfortable and reassuring. It's rare to find someone so considerate and skilled in a tough situation. If I ever need a tow again, I'm calling A Performance Towing and requesting David without hesitation. Highly recommend--10/10 experience!

Kevin at A Performance Towing is stellar! He came to our side within 15 minutes and went above and beyond to help get my hybrid car back into motion. We were perplexed and stranded as to why it wouldn't start " hybrid system malfunction" and Kevin took the time to go through all of his tricks and then some. After some quick code look ups, he got the car back driving. THANK YOU KEVIN for coming to our service. A Performance is lucky to have dedicated team members like you!

I enjoyed a lovely morning climb with my club when one of our members locked his keys in his car. What could have ruined the morning was saved by David from A-Performance. The service and expertise was incredibly efficient. He got to us quickly (I know that can't always happen) and he opened the car within minutes. Thank you for saving the day. Your performance was A++++++!

Spun out. Thanks A- Performance Towing!

I could not recommend A- Performance Towing enough. Corey was very helpful and caring! He went above and beyond by doing his very best to make sure our truck didn't get impounded. I appreciate his help. Patrick also was very friendly and responsive when helping us ... he made sure our truck got safely to a local repair shop. Thank you Corey and Patrick!

An excellent experience. I needed to tow my Tacoma down to a repair shop in Highland. David at A-Performance Towing did an excellent job. Took time to load my truck safely and with care. His experience showed, a true professional. Definitely use this company.

We were visiting Big Bear and unfortunately our car needed assistance. David from A Performance Towing came to our rescue. He kept us informed, he was professional and courteous, he got us where we needed to go and did it all with a smile. Thank you David! We are thankful for you coming to our rescue.

See all

We had our car towed from Big Bear to Ontario. David was the tow truck driver - he was very helpful and professional.

I just had a great experience at Phil's Automotive. My girlfriend and I moved to Big Bear Lake…read morealmost 3 years ago, and Phil's has been working on our three vehicles anytime we've needed repairs. Recently, a check engine light came on in one of our cars. I took it to AutoZone to have a diagnostic check run. They said I needed a new alternator and a few other parts serviced or replaced. I took it to Phil's. They thoroughly checked the car and ran their own diagnostics, and it turns out it wasn't the alternator. This isn't a ridicule ​or slam of the folks at AutoZone. It's just a vote of ​confidence and appreciation, knowing that there's an honest mechanic here in Big Bear Lake; they could've easily taken advantage of us. Needless to say, ​the crew ​at Phil's will be servicing our cars as long as we live in the BBL --

Too busy to care! Driving up to Big Bear, I got a…read morelow-coolant red alert and noticed a few drips collecting on top of the lower engine shield. I stopped by Phil's on a Friday hoping for a quick visual, but the lady in the front office showed little concern -- just flipped through the appointment book and said the soonest appointment was Wednesday. I understand they were booked and I didn't have an appointment for my emergency. With the courtesy of a quick look they might have told me not to drive at all and to have it towed, or said it could be managed temporarily by topping off and monitoring coolant. Or someone might have looked and said, "we can see it's leaking, but we can't pinpoint without further inspection, but unfortunately we can't do that today." Even that would have been greatly appreciated. (ICYDK: A red alert indicator generally signals a serious or critical fault -- meaning you should pull over immediately and not continue driving until it's resolved.) I ended up going to OC Rovers. They were busy too, but once I popped the hood it took only a moment for their mechanic to see coolant was leaking from the water pump. Phil's could have taken two seconds to do the same, but refused. Complete bummer and very disappointing. As a part-time Big Bear resident, I was hoping to find a go-to shop on the mountain. Other reviews mention Phil's saving the day in emergencies, but that wasn't my experience. On the positive side, their shop did look clean, well organized, and equipped with modern tools.

Unfortunately, we ran into trouble tonight -- our car broke down in the mountains. We called around…read moreto several towing services in the area, but since it was Sunday, many didn't answer or quoted us ridiculously high prices, even though we only needed to go about 12 miles. Thankfully, a wonderful woman picked up our call, quoted us a very fair $200, and had a tow truck at our location within 30 minutes. From start to finish, the whole process took about an hour and a half -- super fast and very organized. Huge thanks for such quick and reliable service. They truly turned a stressful evening into a smooth experience. Highly recommend!

I have to say how impressed I am with this towing service!…read moreWe have all been there, we get a flat tire, and in the midst of trying to call a tire shop on a Saturday morning that carries the very specific tires that my car requires, and has the ability to install them plus trying to find a tow truck at the same time to get my car can be tricky! Valadez Towing called me back in less than five minutes and was able to arrange a time to pick up my car which leaves plenty of time to get it to the tire shop for the one installation appointment they have left today. And the prices are so fair and reasonable! I had other companies calling me an hour or hour and a half later, and wanting to charge crazy prices for a tow that's a little less than 5 miles. Not to mention, Melissa, provided excellent service, communicates well, and gave me a nice narrow window time of when to expect the driver! AAA couldn't even guarantee me what time they could get to my car, and the other places that called me back either sounded super shady and could barely speak, or wanted to charge ridiculous prices . So glad I found Melissa , Jose and the Valadez towing company!
