Emergency Towing Needs

Citywide Towing Service, if you are in a cell phone range, can respond for tow or roadside assistance, like jumping your battery, providing fuel or other services. The vulnerable points of trouble, are:
• Tires, need to change a flat.
• Fuel, out of gas or water in the tank.
• Belts and hoses. Modern systems with serpentine belts are vulnerable if the belt breaks. No water pump, AC or electrical generation if your belts fail. Hoses deteriorate and should be replaced every five years, but lets face it, few of us do. The radiator hoses are subject to high heat and oxidize and turn soft leading to a hose leak. Heater hoses last longer but will break down and fail. Water pump seals and gaskets fail. As the bearings wear the shaft wobbles and over time causes the shaft seals to fail.
• Sticking thermostats can cause overheating and vent hot steamy water through the radiator cap to equalize pressures. Modern radiators are predominately plastic and plastic under heat and pressure will fail eventually. So, your accessories and cooling system are vulnerable to failure.
• Ever need a jump? Batteries have a finite lifespan. In high heat desert terrain, you may get three years on a typical battery, with premium only get four-six years. Needing a jump is a common emergency. Lights left on or possibly corroded terminal connections are common. Get started and the alternator will provide enough power to get going.
• Ever leave your keys in a locked car? Awkward much! Very annoying and embarrassing. Many tow companies carry the tools necessary to aid in an automotive lockout.

How Best to Tow a Car

Most towing is the United States utilized a flat tilting bed or a flatbed with a crane that lifts the vehicle onto the bed by the wheels. Hook, the police term for the traditional tow trucks are still found and are better suited for vehicle recovery when in ditches and ravines, or similar environments. Towing of commercial vehicles like buses and semi-tractors require special heavy-duty rigs based on semi-tractor frames. Generally, only the tractor will be towed, leaving trailer for pickup after repairs or the arrival of a back-up tractor and driver.
