Got stuck today on a ride from San Fernando to Venture.
Blowing fuses for the fuel pump.
Called AAA at 12:30 pm from Main Street in Ventura. You have to have a flatbed truck to tow, ok, you have to wait till 4pm. What the F***.
Send a regular truck, sorry it will damage the car. It hasn’t happened in the past when I’ve had it towed.

5pm on the phone with a supervisor, we don’t have the equipment, tow company said nobody wants to drive 50 miles to LA from Ventura.

They found a driver but doesn’t take passengers! That’s ok with you right? FU!

We can have someone there at 8am Sunday morning!

WTF never had an issue like this after 13 years a member, will not be a member for 14.

I counted on them being there, crawled under there car, found the problem, fixed in 10 minutes, Saturday night insurance jobs are to important to miss out on.

I'd love to see a graph of location to satisfaction. I've used AAA a fair bit to move project cars and a couple times to get my E9 when it had issues. I got fabulous service in under the quoted wait time, every time. But as mentioned, I'm in a populated area, close to the tow service bases.
Hope I never have to test them in a remote location.
And worst case, I do have a trailer/tow vehicle. Problem would be, I'd have to get home to get it! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
