    They're allowed to steal

    They literally wrongfully tow and still make you pay. There is a sign saying they aren't responsible for "damages or theft" giving them an open invite to steal from out of your car. They DO NOT WEAR MASKS! And they all have a terrible attitude. What low life's, they should be ashamed they have to do this in order to make money. What low life's lol

    Someone pointed me and my sister here saying rios towing has a sign....nope just ernies! Where is rio? We are lost and they cant help? Next!

    My sister was WRONGFULLY towed by this company. She has been parking there for 4 years with no issue ever before and all the sudden she needs a permit. The permit meter was actually broken and has been for a long time so no one has had to have permits to park there up until today! Fast forward to getting the car from the location. There is no sign from the highway, GPS Took me past it, and customer service is lacking as well. Zero empathy and unable to give direction when lost. We were next to rios at a place called ernies, which has signs all over the place! We can barely see rios sign and called just to be told its right next door not seeing signs we drove next door. Its BBQ but everyone is saying its right there in ernies? but NO ONE IS HELPING US SEE IT heres a photo of the sign.. We were near the flag pole and that is a blind spot. She went INSIDE ERNIES and they did not show her or help her next door they will also get a 0 on customer service. 0 stars we got the car back and will fight the charges.

    See all

    They are quick to tow your car, but when you go to pick it up there isn't anyone there. Yet they advertise 24 hours.

    The people at the office had a job to do but the young man and lady had me laughing and dealt well with my temper well.

The garage I called gave me JV's number for service. JV came in a reasonable amount of time with a modern rig and got my so-not-miniature sedan out of what looked to me to be an impossibly cramped parking spot. He did so very quickly and with complete confidence. He was friendly and professional, and even dropped me at home on the way. Since he wasn't sure if the lot would be open when he got there just after closing and knew the mechanics didn't have a key drop, he advised me to keep the key, double-check the car was locked when I hopped out at my house, and to drop the key off tomorrow to be safe. When I arrived the next day, my car was expertly parked within the security gates but I appreciated the advice. I got a discount since I'd been referred by the garage. Truth is I would pay full price to hire him on my own. He's marvelous.

They driver was polite, knowledgeable, and fast. He made everything look easy. He pushed my Jeep out of the parking spot and loaded it. He allowed me to drive ahead to the auto repair shop while he finished locking the Jeep down. So I was able to talk to the auto repair guys and have them ready. He unloaded it and was professional in telling me how to pay him. Awesome I highly recommend them and saved their contact in my phone. Thank you.

    Scam Artist in Disguise - Avoid at All Costs…read more Around 6:30 PM, after a 12-hour shift, I pulled over on the freeway because my driver-side exhaust pipe had slipped off and was dragging. While waiting for family to arrive, a man in a white Chevy truck with yellow emergency lights stopped. He was around 5'8", gray beard, with a young girl (his daughter, I assume) in the passenger seat. Before even looking under the car, I told him exactly what was wrong -- the pipe had come loose just past the catalytic converters and was scraping. I made it very clear I didn't need anything major, just for it to stop scraping so I could get home. I also told him I could give him gas money or $50 as a thank-you. He agreed. Without saying much else, he immediately had his daughter bring over a jack and an angle grinder. He then sawed off the exhaust pipe completely -- a process that took maybe 15 minutes. Afterward, he told me to start the car (now sounding much louder, obviously), said it "sounded better that way," and started writing something. What he handed me was a printed "receipt" charging me $350 for "grinder work" and a "torn O2 sensor repair" -- both of which are absolute lies. My O2 sensor wasn't damaged, and I had no check engine light or error codes. When I refused to pay, he got aggressive, trying to crowd me against my trunk while saying his daughter was a witness that I "agreed to pay." Let me be clear: I didn't ask him to cut anything. I didn't approve the cost beforehand. I didn't agree to pay a set amount. I didn't even call him -- he pulled over on his own. He started fake-calling someone and threatening to "get me towed." When I stood my ground, he said absurd things like "death by deceivement" (not a real thing) and started trying to manipulate me into paying. Then my family arrived, and he yelled at my mother while trying to guilt her into paying. My mom, wanting to de-escalate and get home to my recovering grandma, offered him $140 -- which he snatched and left with. The receipt he gave me? No name, no client info, no license, no car model -- completely bogus. This man is a predator who takes advantage of people stranded and vulnerable. He intimidated me and my family, lied about the damage, and tried to bully money out of us for something I never agreed to. He's running a scam operation with no integrity, and dragging his daughter along for it -- which is honestly heartbreaking. To the man who scammed me: You said it would cost $60 to weld the exhaust back on. So why would it cost $350 to hack it off? You're not just dishonest -- you're deliberately abusive. I hope someday you feel the kind of violation and disrespect you inflict on hardworking people. Avoid this roadside "mechanic" at all costs. Call a tow truck or wait for someone you trust. This man is a scammer and a thief. BELOW ARE THE PHOTOS OF THE RECEIPT HE USED FOR EXTORTION AND THE AFTERMATH THAT SUPPOSEDLY COST $350 https://www.imghippo.com/i/Dosj5576vE.png https://www.imghippo.com/i/BEU1944GWk.png
