This review is specifically for Brian #911941. I was on the Altamont Pass towing my boat. My SUV lost power and I had to pull over. I called the insurance company and they connected me with Save Tow. They told me it would take about 2 hours. I called Save Tow about 1 hour later to check status and they said it's going to take about 2 hours because they need to find a driver who is experience with towing a car and a boat. Ok understandable. The entire wait time was 3 hours with me calling every hour checking on status. Brian showed up and he was great. Got the SUV on the flatbed pretty quick and he was pretty patient with the tricky hitch on the trailer. He double checked my address and after that we were good to go. I was really impressed with his skills when he dropped off the boat and SUV. He was able to parallel park the boat perfectly and parked the SUV in front of the boat. He did all of this with a positive attitude even though he had just driven through a long stretch of traffic. If you ever are in an emergency and Brian happens to be your tow driver, you're in good hands! read more

We requested a towing service from this company. The driver Jesus show up without mask after office requested that we need wear mask all the time he decline the service because the license plate was expired (under stable) what's unacceptable is the way that this employee talk to clients (very disrespectful, rude) after his allegations he droves away 20 miles per hr in a parking lot with a big truck. PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY DONT WASTE YOUR TIME. read more

Brian came out today and saved me! I thought I needed a tow, but he showed me that I had a spare tire underneath the car (who knew?) He could not have been more pleasant! He worked quickly and got the job done with a smile!! Will definitely use them again and recommend their services!! Thanks again Brian!! read more

Bass fishing sounded good for a Friday so I hooked up my boat and headed out like I have a thousand times when my 2002 GMC pickup fuel pump decided it no longer wanted to pump fuel. Losing power while towing a boat is never a good feel but it happened to me today. I was able to coast off on the Portola off ramp 51 eastbound 580. Not going fishing and gotta call AAA. That's a whole other 5 star review. I was told a truck would be on the way in under 2 hours. That's a very long time I was thinking but what was I going to say? Not only did I need my truck towed but there was no way I was leaving the boat out there so they needed to tow that too. Oh, new thing. AAA can no longer take passengers in their trucks so you need your own ride. Within 10 minutes, Save Tow called me to tell me that Mario would be arriving in 25 minutes. Yay! Way better than 2 hours right? Now, I've never driven a tow truck but my guy, Mario made it look easy. Mario was real good at what he does. I realized that this guy had been doing this for a while. Yes, risking his life for unlucky people like me. Oh, that risk is real. If you pull to the shoulder of any freeway, get out of your car (do not do this) and look around. Cars going 80 mph, 10 or 15 feel away. He didn't waste a minute and my truck was on the bed. Next he hooked up my boat and we were outta there! He dropped my boat at my house and the truck at my service shop around the corner also getting 5 stars. Save Tow did as good a job as humanly possible and I wanted to thank the man on the phone, supercool, and Mario. If I had a fleet of tow vehicles, Mario would be my top guy. I would use him to train others. He was that good. Thank you Mario. I feel lucky that you were the one Save Tow sent! read more

Save Tow - Gleen fixed my Tesla!! He saved the day! - Towing Near Me - Livermore, California

Save tow has given the worst possible experience one can have with a towing provider. I was left for 2 hours to have a call back saying they can't find me and I wasn't there and I'm basically shit out of luck. No apology for no phone call when they were in the area and no one can come back for me? The told me to call someone else, or back later. So I have now been on the side of the road for 3 and a half hours now because it takes another hour and a half to get a tow truck here. The lady sandy or whatever her name was was also super rude and unprofessional. read more

Save Tow - Me being broken down for 4 hours - Towing Near Me - Livermore, California

It was very early morning and the sun had yet to come up. Me and my girlfriend were trying to race to the closest gas station but unfortunately got stuck on the side of the freeway before we could make it. I called the closest Tow place nearby. Didn't take them long to pin our location. Our tow guys name was Glenn! He was very nice and made us feel comfortable and even made sure when we got to the gas station, that we were gassed up and safely back on the road before leaving! read more

My friend was in a car accident in Livermore, the police department called this Tow Company to get the car out of the way. The Tow Driver's name is ANTHONY he is the Latin guy from the start he had an attitude not helpful at all. It was very strange to me because we have used this company many times before and we have used our insurance company to pay for the service and this is the first time that we have such bad experience. Anthony did not ask what company we had for insurance until we gave him the AAA card and he threw it back rudely saying it is expired. He made a phone call to ask what the base rate is someone told him $245 for an hour and he turned around and said "You will need to pay for the service it out of pocket for the tow and I won't drop the car until is paid". We told him that the price seemed high we have paid as much as $110 for a tow and the accident was right by our house the tow was less than a mile away. We asked him if how much to tow the car somewhere else and he said he was not sure how much it would cost since he started charging as soon as he received the phone call?? We just ended up taking it to the house, when he got to our house he keep saying he was not going to be able to drop off the car because he needed more space. ANTHONY took his time to take our payment ended up having room to do the work finally the car is at our house. He noticed that the car is totaled and suggest that we sing the car over to them so that the insurance company pays and the process goes faster "He told us after the car was off the tow truck!!!". We said NO thank you he left a few minutes go by he turned around got out took pictures of the car and left again? I hope that I am not in need in the future of a tow company because this experience was not acceptable. I would expect customer service since we did ended up paying the $245 and tow guys are usually very helpful. it seemed to me that he was trying to take advantage of the situation since we did not have the best state of mind after a car accident where the car is totaled. read more

Jacob did a great job towing my 911. He took extra care using the necessary extra equipment needed to tow a lowered Porsche. He also was able to explain the process prior to loading my car. Would highly recommend using these guys if you need their services. read more

We got our car towed by Glenn, he's the best! On time, super kind, and made what could have been a terrible situation- enjoyable! Took care of me and my sister and even backed the tow truck into a very tight spot to help the mechanics unload the car better. This company is great, and if we ever break down around here again-they will be the first ones we call! read more

Save Tow - Towing Near Me - Livermore, California

I had the unfortunate experience of blowing a tire on Vasco; luckily it wasn't apparent/that bad until I got to the bottom. After pulling into a gas station lot, I called my supervisor (thinking I would be god knows how late) then called AAA. Save Tow has the AAA contract for that area of Livermore and arrived only 15 minutes after I called AAA. That response time is UNHEARD OF, especially considering you call AAA then they relay the information to the local tow company they contract with. Robert was polite, fast, incredibly efficient and changed my tire in only TEN minutes (including the jacking/unjacking, removing the locking lugnuts, replacing the tire then putting the PITA lugnuts back on - this is a lot of work and should give you an idea of how quick he was). I tipped him $5 and was so grateful to be on my way to work and only 20 minutes late. I even called them after I had left to give my thanks and commend Robert on a job well done. The supervisor was just as polite as Robert was and very grateful for the feedback. Breaking down is scary. Vasco is terrifying. I'm so glad for Save Tow helping me in my time of need! read more

Save Tow - Ouch - Towing Near Me - Livermore, California

I had the TOW done twice and ... these guys really are very kind and patient! I really like the way how they greeted me and asked me questions! They eve gave me a tip here and there when I had some questions about my car ( the starter would t work) Thank YOU SAVE TOW! You are awesome!! read more

Daniel was so kind when he came to pick me up. It was a long day but he made me feel special. He was awesome. He let me sit in the front seat while he put my car on the tow truck. He helped me get there as soon as he could and he is a Giants fan which automatically makes him cool. So he wins and I would have him tow my car again tomorrow? Thank you Daniel for your help! read more

Got a blowout tire on our fifth wheel on 580 in the middle of the freeway. A very nice CHP arrived to see if he could help. Said he would call a local tow company they use and it ended up being this company. After hours of waiting we received a call from a women at this company who stated they didn't have anyone to help us because there trucks do not carry jacks. Kinda weird. Reason for the review is she was so extremely rude! She basically said she was doing us a favor by even calling us to let us know they were not coming and there's lots of tow companies out there so to find a new one. That would be my advice to you as well! read more

This place was used as part of my AAA roadside service. In short, when I inspected my vehicle after it was towed, my vehicle was damaged. There were a few significant dents that weren't there prior to the tow. The manager was not helpful and communication with Save Tow was horrible. A one star review is generous, I guess. In all honesty, a zero star rating is more realistic. read more

Needed a tow today due to my Jeep breaking down. Called AAA and they sent Save Tow out within 30 minutes. Miguel was my driver and he was amazing! Fast, friendly, safe and professional. Need I say more......Save Tow and Miguel ROCKS! Thanks for saving my day. read more

I was recently in a car accident and my roadside assistance turned out to be a bit of a bust as they said they were struggling to get a driver out to me. An hour of waiting passes by and I called Save Tow. They got a driver to me quickly, and Andre was exactly who you would want to save the day in this terrible situation, professional, kind, and efficient. He got the car hooked up quickly and safely and I'm incredibly grateful for their 5 star service! read more

These people suck. Tell me 30-45 min and have me wait 2.5 hours. Canceled and disappointed. Want to charge $135 for an around-the -corner tow? Well, get your crap together and you could. Call for service with another company. Your time will be wasted, and probably your money with these people. read more

DO NOT UsE THIS TOWING COMPANY, Brian one of their drivers picked up my car in Dublin Ca at 5:46 pm on March 26 and did not drop off my car in Patterson Ca until1:45 am on March 27. The same response was given every time I called to ask for my car. The response was," it will be there in 30 minutes after he picks it up from our yard."This company is unreliable, untimely and struggles with the truth. read more

5 stars for Mario!!! He towed a car from my home this morning. My driveway has a decent incline and the vehicle had a dead battery, plus the hood latch was not cooperating. He didn't give up and he was able to move the vehicle safely and securely. Thank you, Mario! read more

Im writing this review because I kept getting emailed the reminder to take the survey, which I rated everything poorly. Well on 10/13 I called because I wanted a new car battery installed and I get a good member discount, through AAA. But from sadly what I learned, I guess the battery has to be beyond dead I guess. They won't sell you one regardless. The battery has to be piss shitty bad in order to replace it. But like if you're lucky to start the car up every other day and it's starts but it's just bordering being very bad (even if you test with the headlights on and if it dims to very dark or off when you start it), they won't sell you it. They're testing instruments suck in my opinion and Autozone says it's barely holding a charge when I went in the following weekend and they do say it's about anytime I could be stranded. Let me tell you about the serviceman, which I'm sure he wasn't in a good mood and had a fake nice attitude to cover it up. As I said earlier per the above after his routine testing and that the battery is ok, I advised otherwise that its a bad battery and if we can test it again with the lights turned on and start it up, it will dim and it will struggle to power the starter. He disagreed and said "Nope I cannot do it, you're battery tested good. It's against policy to change this battery for another good battery. And if I do this, I lose my job and what can I do after that to support my two kids?" I mean really buddy!?!!? Reeeeeeelly, you had to say something that personal??! "I don't mean to sound like a total Dick sir but, I'm keeping my job to support my kids.. but hey if it tests show bad the next time we'll replace it" I was pissed. I calmy though said whatver and I just hurried and disconnected all the shit equipment he connected and as I was about to close the hood he said " oh wait sir lemme put the battery cap protector for you... (cuts infront of me and puts in on) There you go.. have a good night" I floored and burned a mushroom cloud from my screeching tires like a bat outta hell. And didn't offer me to give me the test results. So I called the dispatch guy at this location and complained about why my battery I never was able to be sold one because of these ok tests, yelling and he pretty much was cutting me off saying the same stuff and that they can't do anything about it. To all you folks with AAA roadside assistance membership thinking of buying a battery with them, so you don't have to do all the work of buying your own battery from the dealer or autozone etc. . Better off buying your own battery and install ing it yourself. Not through AAA so called battery install service. They're good and only good to give you a jump. That's it. You've been warned. Battery lost about its last drop of juice this Halloween week I ended up getting one at my local autozone. read more

Called AAA for my dead battery in my van... Got the text message from them saying how long he would be. He was right on the money and worked very hard to get the battery to turn The engine over. Another driver stopped by to help and the two of them got it running. Thanks Robert, David and Andrew for showing up and doing the work! Tomorrow I will see how well their mechanic does... i'll keep you posted on his effectiveness and service. read more

Save Tow - Towing Near Me - Livermore, California

Exceptionally bad experience!!!! I called them today (September 8, 2018 around 1pm) to get my car keys out of my car. I was given an estimate of 40-60 minutes. At the hour I called for a status update and was told it would be another 20 minutes because they were busy that day. I waited 25 minutes (spoke to a new dispatcher) before calling again to be told they would be here in ten minutes. Nope. I called twenty minutes later and they swore he was almost here. When he did arrive (2:45ish) he showed me his cell phone call history which showed that the first dispatcher did not even give him he order! Not till the second dispatcher called him at 2:26 did he even know about my car. I got a measly discount of $10 which does not make up for the two kids under five being over an hour late for their naps. I chose this company because they had over 200 good Yelp reviews. They did not live up to the hype and has lost my future business. read more

No tow service in the area would come and tow my vehicle. Except Save Tow did not turn down my assistance via AAA. All other companies did not come. I was greeted with a friendly and courteous call from Brenda. I felt like I was on the phone with family, she took great measures to ensure everything was correct and all was well. Then my man Glenn pulls up early and had us out and on the road in seconds. Having my vehicle safely secured. If your in the 925 area code as for Brenda and tell her to send Glenn. I'm sure the rest of the staff are awesome but this is my personal experience with them. Call#277 read more

Needed a tow, since my car would not start when I was trying to take it to Acura for service. I called AAA, and Save Tow was dispatched. They were at my house WITHIN 10 MINUTES! I have NEVER had a tow truck come that fast in my life. The driver was fairly quiet, and not overly friendly (granted we were both in masks), but very efficient and professional. Thank you for great service! read more

We participate in the Good Guys car show about 4 times a year. Today our truck broke down on the way home and I had the pleasure of speaking with Jena Cisek. Of course during car show weekend they are super busy, but she called me gave me an ETA that was reasonable considering how much work they had ahead of me. She was also very informative and kept in touch with me through this whole process. It was really nice to have some one who really cared about our current situation and be so helpful as well. Thank you guys for your hard work and efforts to get us, and our hot rod home safely. We truly appreciate it. read more

Thank you so much! If you ever get this guy as your tow truck man you're in great hands. read more

Headed out to my family get together this morning when my car had other plans. With over 300gs miles I thought I've got this. Nope!!! With 2 young kids with me engine light came, car was jerking and barely made it safe to the shoulder. Of all places on I was on the Altamont scary situation for me. I didn't want to push my car to extreme limit so thank goodness I have AAA. This isn't my first time using however it's my first time having my kids with me!!! Despite my car worries I need to give a shout out to GLENN the tow truck driver! I didn't have to wait long. He was attentive , helped kids and I Into truck safely. Very friendly guy easy to talk to. My morning didn't start off as planned but it could have been worse. Thanks Glenn read more

We had a long tow this morning through AAA (8/4/18) and Byron was our technician. Every step of the way the shop kept us apprised of his ETA. He was kind and courteous explaining the process to us. Keep up the good work, Byron. We appreciate all your hard work! read more

My car tired exploded on the side of the road, I was lucky enough to pull off into a gas station somewhere near Livermore. Brian* was the gentleman that came to the rescue for me, and I was surprised how quick they called to check on me! They even had a GPS tracker they can text you, and it gives your EXACT location! Brian, was awesome and very professional. Even educated me a little bit about cars, because I was about to make a very dangerous decision but didn't know it. And Somehow, while listening to me ramble on and on about this and that, he managed to still be efficient and on point! Thanks Brian, keep on doing it with a smile my man! and thanks Save Tow for the rescue! read more

Alvin was awesome! Not only was he here in a flash he was quick, efficient and pleasant to deal with. I would absolutely recommend this company because of this gentleman. If I ever get in trouble like this again I hope Alvin is dispatched to assist. Thank you Alvin!! read more

Yesterday was a bad day. Driving home on 580 Eastbound from Dublin to Tracy when my tire pressure gauge went off going from full to 0 before I could even make it to the shoulder. Fudge (not what I actually said, but you get my point). Call AAA and my estimated wait for a tow was 193 minutes. Fudge fudge. I'd have to wait on a narrow shoulder just after a curve for 3 hours! FRACK! Then Save Tow to the rescue. About 15 minutes later an angel of a young lady called (can't remember name) and let me know that she had a driver that would be there within minutes! OMG THANK YOU! Jacob got there within a few minutes and not only towed my car to my desired location, but also offered to drop the key in the night box for me so I could get home. They were both so gracious and kind. Save Tow's staff is OUTSTANDING! HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Not that I wish anyone car trouble, but if you're stuck, Save Tow is AWESOME! Thank you angel lady and Jacob for making a bad night better! read more

Called AAA to tow my car that the alternator had crapped out on. Fortunately, they sent Save Tow. The driver, Byron was fast efficient and very friendly and courteous! Great experience! read more

I ran out of battery charge on my Tesla at Morgan Territory Regional Preserve (yes, very bad judgment). Although I had a very spotty cell signal, I managed to call AAA and they eventually got SaveTow to come out and get me out of a self-inflicted bad situation. They were the only ones in Livermore who had a flatbed truck (required for Teslas), had Tesla training and hence were authorized by Tesla to tow Teslas for AAA, and they agreed to come out into the country (at least 10-20 miles into a remote regional park) on a Sunday. Brian was the tow truck driver based in Livermore. He was pleasant, friendly, knowledgeable, professional and efficient. He got the vehicle jump started (I didn't even know Teslas had to be jumpstarted if the battery drained to such a large extent), loaded it up on the flatbed, drove carefully and dropped me off at the supercharger. Kudos to SaveTow and Brian for getting me out of a tough situation! read more

DONT EVER TAKE YOUR CAR TO A DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS!!!! Not worth your energy!!! My car was in an awkward position to be towed because the dealership decided to park it in a space that all non-starting cars should be parked in.... Thanks AAA tow truck guy: Byron of Livermore,CA he knows what to do with those type situation. The man through down some geometry. BAM it's up and ready. Super Professional read more

#30293 Was involved in a hit and run this morning on the Altamont west bound 580. Tow truck driver showed up quickly and very concerned with my well being. It's nice to know that there is people out there who genuinely care about other people. Thank you for the service. read more
