Can AAA tow my car to a different address that isn’t mine?
My parents were in a car accident, and the cops had the vehicle towed by a different company. The fees are piling up, and they want to retrieve the car as soon as possible (tomorrow). They suggested I call AAA to use my roadside assistance, but I’m curious if I can have it towed to another location. My dad knows a mechanic who works out of his house and would like them to handle the repair. It’s worth noting that the car is 24 years old, so taking it to a body shop doesn’t seem practical. Would AAA allow the tow to a different address, or is it restricted to my home? Thanks!
Yes, AAA can tow your car to a different address, as long as it is within their coverage area and you’re a member. You should let them know the specific destination when you call for the tow. Just explain the situation and that you want the car taken to your dad’s friend’s house for repairs. Since your parents are in a difficult situation, they should be understanding. Just make sure to have the address ready and confirm any fees that might apply for the tow. Good luck!
