answers to frequently asked questions from a towing professional

Customers often ask questions about what to do when you are in an accident or have a breakdown emergency and we get questions about basic car maintenance. 
  1. Make sure your car is safe and can pass the Virginia State Inspection at all times.
  2. Keep your vehicle registration card, state inspection receipt, insurance card, and a list of emergency contacts stapled together in your glove box. If you are injured and cannot communicate with emergency responders, police will check the glove box for information so they can notify your family or friends.
  3. The best rule is to follow the maintenance schedule in your vehicle owner’s manual. Other services are rarely needed. Keep your vehicle owner’s manual in the glove box so you can refer to it for maintenance information.

Temperature Light Comes On or Gauge Shows Overheating

If an engine begins overheating, it is essential that the car be taken off the road quickly so it can be turned off. Overheating can cause the engine head gasket to break (cost: $800 - $1,500) or the engine may lockup and need to be replaced. Continued driving will cause serious and expensive damage, far beyond the cost of a tow. The car needs to be inspected by a competent repair shop.
