Never Again

Broke down on I 81 in Carlisle PA on Wednesday. Truck, 30' 5th wheel, 2 pugs and us 2' from heavy traffic in 90 degree humidity with nowhere to walk to. Good Sam Roadside left us there for four hours. Never again. Has anyone used any other companies? AAA? Good Sam has seen the last of my money.

  • They are only as good as the 'contracted' tow companies in the area.

    They only call 'their' contracted tow companies. There might be a tow company with one mile of where you broke down but if it is not one of 'their' contractors you have to wait for one of theirs that might be 40 miles away.

    I have to wonder why they don't have a larger data base of signed on contractors.?

    AAA is know world wide and IMHO, JMHO any and all tow companies will take the road side service call because they KNOW they will be reimbursed same as will your own national brand car insurance tow policies. If you notice with them you are allowed to call the closet tow company and both will pay for it or reimburse you 100%.

    Long story short IMHO GS needs to expand their contracted tow companies or change their history so all tow companies are assured they will be reimbursed for their service to an RV'er.
  • I've got Allstate RV roadside, but I have to admit, I have very little experience having to use them. Called for a blown tire on the TT a few years ago, and they were reasonably quick (30-45 min) if I recall.
  • Thank you for the post marksquared. I apologize for the lack of service. Please send me a private message with your contact information and I'll contact you.
