Arizona drivers know that the desert can be as unpredictable as it is beautiful. From long stretches of highway to congested city streets, many situations can leave you in need of a tow. Here are some of the top reasons drivers across the state call Barnett’s Towing for roadside assistance.
- An Accident Leaves You Stranded
Accidents are among the most common reasons drivers need a tow. Even minor impacts can render a vehicle unsafe to drive or cause internal damage that could worsen over time. Getting the car to a repair shop quickly protects your safety and helps preserve the car’s condition. Barnett’s Towing can help get you and your vehicle where you need to be promptly and carefully.
- You Lock Yourself Out
Few situations feel as frustrating as locking your keys inside your vehicle, especially when you are miles from home. Barnett’s Towing can help with lockout assistance, letting you get back on your way without waiting for hours.
- An Empty Tank
Running out of fuel is more common than many drivers expect. Whether it’s misjudging your remaining range, getting stuck in traffic, or being unfamiliar with desert routes, running dry can quickly become dangerous. Our towing company can provide fuel delivery or tow you safely to the nearest station.
- Your Engine Overheats
Arizona’s extreme temperatures put added stress on cooling systems, especially in summer. A failed water pump, broken fan belt, or other cooling system issue can cause an engine to overheat and shut down, bringing you to a halt. In those moments, calling Barnett’s Towing can be the safest and easiest option.
- Mechanical Failures and Breakdowns
Unexpected engine, transmission, or electrical issues can immobilize your vehicle without warning. Such failures often happen in the middle of nowhere and require a reliable tow truck to get to a mechanic. Preventive maintenance cannot eliminate all risks, but when trouble strikes, a tow can make all the difference.
- A Flat That You Can’t Fix
A flat tire, even with a spare, can be tricky or unsafe to change in high-traffic areas or in remote stretches. Barnett’s Towing can either change the tire on the spot or transport your car to a nearby service center.
- Your Battery Dies or You Can’t Start Your Car
Battery failure is a frequent towing cause, especially as batteries age. Whether your car will not start or the alternator fails, being stranded is stressful and potentially unsafe. Barnett’s Towing ensures you can get the help you need promptly.
How to Avoid the Need for a Tow
Regular upkeep, such as checking tire condition, monitoring coolant levels, inspecting belts, and replacing batteries, can help reduce the risk of breakdowns. Staying alert to maintenance schedules and seasonal symptoms will save you inconvenience and expense.
