    Big Bend Roadside Assistance - Flat tire at Santa Elena canyon

    Big Bend Roadside Assistance

    Peter is a life saver! If you are in Big Bend National park and run into car issues this is the…read moreONLY person in the closest town who will come out to help you. Even the fire department will not come out to help you, if something happens in this park you are own your own! I was stranded in Big Bend National Park with a flat tire. By the grace of God I was able to find some cell reception at the Santa Elena overlook and found a yelp for Peter. He came out in the middle of the night and repaired the tire. He even escorted me out of the park once my tire was plugged up to make sure I made it out safely. In addition, he even met with me in the morning and took me to a tire shop. This man is exceptional and is a Saint worth every penny! Stay safe don't mess with Texas.

    Do yourself a favor - save this photo or add this number to your contacts on the phone. You will…read moresee how it's basically impossible to get someone to come out and help you in the area so save yourself the regret! I only got lucky by intuition. I grabbed a piece of paper from a local bulletin board with Peter Cary's number on it on my way into a restaurant and ended up with a nail in my tire minutes after we left the restaurant. I pull over and send Peter a text thinking he's going to come out much later, like how other roadside services usually take. I was wrong. He responded within seconds then got to me within minutes, ready to support and went all out on service. Peter sure knew what he was doing. He did not only get my tire plugged in by hand but fixed another issue (blown fuse) that I did not even tell him about nor was expecting him to even handle. He did it with grace and treated me as if I was his own - just the way the people of Terlingua are! Never felt this much gratitude before - all for this situation, Peter Cary, and the hearts and souls of Terlingua. And you're welcome in advance. Safe travels. #noonetravelsalone

    Diego’s Tire Repair

    Diego saved Mother's Day for us! Our rental car took us around Big Bend National Park for two days…read moreand I may have jinxed us by remarking that it was a miracle we didn't get a flat tire driving over 1000s of sharp rocks on the unpaved roads. On our way to Mother's Day dinner, the tire light went on and we realized one of the tires had gone completely flat at 5:30 PM on a Sunday. We waited 2.5 hours for AAA to send a guy in from Alpine to put the spare on for us and then drove straight to Diego at 7 PM. He very quickly patched the original tire, removed the spare, and reinstalled the tire. He has us on our way in less than an hour and only charged us $40 for his trouble. We made it out of there in time to take mom out for dinner and drinks in Terlingua and the patch got us through the 4 hour drive to Midland/Odessa airport to return our rental the following day.

    We got a leak on our Big Bend offroading trip and I figured we'd be dealing with it the rest of the…read moretrip and also the long drive home. Then, my fiance said that she not only found a tire repair in Terlingua but it was also open Saturday. About 20 minutes later, we arrived at Diego's and no joke, he was not only hustling to work on my 4runner but also had the truck jacked and tire off in only a few minutes. It was a very hot day and his son offered us water while we waited. We watched him fix the tire and it took a few attempts as the first plug didn't seal it but after 45 minutes or so, it was fixed. He also was very nice to air up our other 3 tires that were low after airing down for offroading. Very friendly pricing and nice people. They saved our trip and I couldn't be more grateful. Wish I could give 6 stars!

    These folks were wonderful. I can't possibly recommend them enough…read more We were seriously up a creek. We had something going very wrong with our SUV while towing a trailer. It felt like a tire issue, but tire pressure was good and everything looked fine with the car and the trailer. However, on the road we were getting horrible shaking. In desperation, we went 20 miles off our path to get to Balmorhea for a 24 hour repair shop. We limp the car there only to find that it's closed. We search frantically and my girlfriend finds Balmorhea Towing and Tires on some website. It took us a few minutes to find because they don't have an office, it's just a lot with a couple trailers, but we found someone to help us. I think his name was Jeff. He and Markus (*sp) we super helpful, figured out which tire was giving us trouble and put on the spare. They were able to diagnose that the problem was a quickly collapsing sidewall. They gave us instructions on speed and where to take it next and how far we could make it on the donut. My girlfriend and I are both transgender and being in the middle of nowhere in Texas, let's just say we weren't expecting any red carpets. But these guys were so kind, patient, and courteous to us both. I felt like I was at one of my home shops. This was in the middle of one of the worst travel days I've had and was such a bright spot and a saving grace. We really appreciate these folks!

    Very helpful and flexible company when I blew a tire. I used our insurance roadside assistance and…read morewas assigned one of the only towing/tire companies that would drive the 70 miles to help me. I later discovered the dispatcher on the insurance end told Balmorhea that I needed gas. Thankfully Balmorhea came prepared for all issues and with a little creative use of various jacks, was able to get me back on the road later that night. So grateful that they are willing to drive such a far distance to get stranded motorists to safety.
