It feels like a prison when you come in here. It's a sad environment.

The lady in the front speaks with a rude manner... very uncomfortable & unwelcoming place.

Got here a lil before 10 to get my car out of impound and one of the drivers said he would assist us in 10 minutes, it's now been over an hour and getting closer to midnight, only time will tell if they charge an extra day. Definitely a shiesty business. If only I could give no stars lol

The bottom of my car

They towed my car from Amapolas Market in Downey I was parked for 45min and I get it. I was parked in a spot that was supposed to be a no parking zone, but yet there was no sign. My problem with them besides a $460 to get my car out is that they broke my cooler to the turbo and they broke my front bumper. And they have horrible service. You're trying to take your car out and it's like they're doing a favor..

Dirty ass place.

If I could leave less that one star I would. This place is dirty , they (DAVID & BRIANNA) are very rude and disrespectful and disregarded everything question we asked as if they were robots. They just want to recite posted signs. I'm sure the business is illegal. So sad. Had to file a police report. Also there r gnats everywhere. So fucking dirty.

I called the police because no one authorized a tow truck to remove my vehicle from the private property which is a 55+ senior living community. I reported my vehicle stolen. Because we had an eye-witness that stated it was a white tow truck, the officer checked the database several times to make sure it was not in the tow database. It was not in the tow database & tow companies are required to report the tow within one-hour; and since it was already almost 3 hours when it was towed, the officer made a stolen vehicle report. I also called local towing companies who all verified via my license plate & vin that they did not tow my vehicle. I called Mr. Cs towing company on 3 separate occasions & each time they confirmed they did not tow my car. Then a neighbor was kind enough to share their video footage of the tow truck. I was able to make out the phone number on the truck & it was in fact Mr. C's & the same # I had already called 3 times So I called Mr. C's again and at this point I was shaking but I told them, you lied to me, you did tow my car I have video footage it was your tow truck & has the same phone # I've been calling. The girl rudely replied, "you'll have to pay $480 to get the vehicle out of the tow yard". I told her absolutely not, & asked her why did you tow my vehicle? She said, "because it was parked illegally". Not true. I had my vehicle parked right in front of my elderly parent's mobile home unit to take groceries out & a 40 pack of water bottles, when I went back to my car about 45 minutes later to get the water bottles... my car was gone. And I panicked because I needed my car to pick up my parent from the dialysis clinic I go to the tow yard in Huntington Park that same night and the person behind the non-see-through reception window tells me he will not release my car without me paying the $480. Anyway, I left the tow yard because I realized it was a scam, I was being scammed and figured I will return with a police officer in the morning, besides my vehicle has already been reported stolen. The next morning I found out that in September of 2022, Mr. Cs towed a vehicle from a different unit, so now I have a victim witness. I called Mr. C's to give them a last chance before I filed criminal charges and told them I have all this evidence that what they did was illegal per CA vehicle code 22513. They said they didn't care they "heard it all before, your threats aren't helping you", and I still need pay to get my car back and all of a sudden the fee was $342 instead of the $480. He also said $342 before 5pm or it would be more after. So again, scam scam scam!!! The HP police officers told me to pay the money and take them to court. How are the officers allowing this scam? I told the officers this is a scam and I want to file a criminal complaint. This tow company drives around unsolicited like a shark in this senior citizen community to snatch cars & force payment to release the vehicle. Finally the police officer told me to wait outside and he talked to the tow people and as a "favor" to the officer they released my car without payment. The tow person made me sign a receipt and they didn't give me a copy. I regret signing it because it's a scam what they tried to do to me but I need my car and signed out of desperation and under duress. I am grateful and thanking God, the neighbors and the officers that helped me because I can't afford the fee... BUT IT IS STILL A SCAM, they can't be doing this to people, especially in an already low-income area and senior citizen community it's criminal of them to do this. I pray they get caught someday or at least pray that no one else falls victim to them. Anyway, thanks to my neighbors that told me about the car being towed and the other neighbor sharing their video footage and the other who told me which neighbor is friends with the tow guy. Also, to the neighbor that is friends with the tow guy, you are unkind, I'm pretty sure you tipped him off to go take my car. I wonder if you get some type of payment? The thing is I am allowed to park there temporarily for putting shopping away, getting parent or passengers in and out etc. Before we were allowed to park overnight but you complained and it resulted in parking signs installed everywhere and no overnight parking was enforced- that's fine no biggie! But that was not the case in my situation, I was there temporarily and I do that at least 3 times a week on days of dialysis treatment and the park manager knows that! And I don't plan to change my routine for your convenience! And as a matter of fact I will park there again in the same spot as needed. I will file criminal charges on your friend if he steals / illegally tows my car again.

I will never forget this night and never forget how Hawks Towing came to our rescue. On the night…read moreof 12.14.24 my father had passed away, after leaving my mother's home in OC we were driving back when we got a flat tire in Lynwood. This is an area we are unfamiliar with and let alone we ended up pulling into this sketchy area as it was the closest off the freeway. It was so scary and we had to abandon our vehicle due to not being able to get roadside service right away. My family and I had to leave our vehicle behind an alley and run to find a safe place to find a tow company. I called a few places and they told them our situation and they were quoting $600+ plus to tow and drive us back to the Valley. I ended up finding Hawks via Yelp and decided to give them a call. I ended up speaking with a nice individual and he quoted us half the price. They came to our rescue and had to bring a flatbed due to the type of vehicle we had. He drove us all the way from Lynwood to the Valley. After going through such a traumatic and sad incident with my Father the Owner of Hawks drove us to our house safely he was kind, compassionate, he kept my sons spirits up and made us feel at ease and just safe. He will forever be our guardian angel. Professional, honest, hard working and kind. I would highly recommend Hawks! Thank you

My engine light suddenly came on a few days ago and then the engine started to make a funny noise…read more Due to a combination of a crazy schedule and having been frustrated with my most recent experiences with local dealerships, I decided to try out Mobile Mechanic. It's one of the best decisions I have made this year. Will was able to come out with a day or so and run a diagnostics check, quickly locating the issue and showing me the results. He explained to me what the issue was, discussed options, gave me a full quote and a price - highly competitive. With me agreeing to what needed to be done, he ordered the part (Saturday) and came back the next day (Sunday) to install it. Incredibly helpful and so polite, he showed me the new part, walked me through what he was going to do and afterward even showed me the part he removed and explained the wear and why it was actually perfect timing. Within hours I was up and running again, good as new. I have NEVER had service like this from a dealership in all my years of being a car owner and driver (and that's several decades). Will also flagged other things that I needed to be aware of (including needing an oil change - which I will be getting him to come and do) but at no point pushed for me to do them there and then - zero pressure, just guidance. He repeatedly asked if I had any questions and was keen for me to understand what was happening and why - superb! He even cleared up the work area after he'd finished. Flawless. Aside from the convenience and Will just being an incredibly nice guy, his attention to detail and service are second to none. Friendly and knowledgable, he works hard to make sure you understand what he's doing, and is professional and polite at every step along the way. Will clearly cares and takes great pride in what he does. He's the only person I will be going to for my automotive service needs from now on. Highly recommended.

Although losing him, especially "that way" is very disheartening, a recent break down, lead me to take a chance on Mobile Mechanic. I called and spoke with Will to get an estimate on my repair. He was professional, knowledgeable, quoted me a resonable price, and gave me an appointment. The next day, Will showed up at my house ON TIME and with a great personality. He came fully equipped and prepared to fix my suv. The repair took less than the 2 hours he originally estimated. I'm so glad I took a chance on Mobile Mechanic. I love the convenience of mobile auto repair. It was great not having to worry about getting a ride to and from a repair shop. I'm sticking with Will for any future car maintenance or repair issues. Thank you so much Will.

Half hour later, all gears worked. 2 for 2 in less time than my oil change took at the other hellhole.
