I called Mal's when my car got caught in rising tide water. I had unwittingly parked in the tide zone and found water up to the body when I returned three hours later. I slogged into the car and turned on the engine, but could not shift out of park. The water must have screwed things up. The tide was still coming in, so I feared for my car. But the person I spoke to at Mal's was able to talk me through how to manually unlock the gear. (Fortunately I had a nail clipper with me!) Mal's saved the day. Thank you!

Once again Manager Liam was amazing. I would not go anywhere else. He is genuine thoughtful and kind. I have not come across anyone with with such integrity in years. All my business will go here. Once again, I wish we had a thousand of him. Great service.

FANTASTIC SERVICE!! My car broke down on the highway in Old Saybrook and the police arrived S my boyfriend was checking it. They called MAL Towing for us. The driver, Johnny, was absolutely awesome!

He assisted getting me into the police vehicle as even those seats are too high. The he pulled the car up on the flatbed and got my AAA card.The card was expired but I thought the number was the same and expected no issues. However, when he got to the garage we selected (40 miles away!), when he called AAA for a billing code, they said I didn’t have an account! He tried calling my boyfriend first, who didn’t hear him because he

Mals Did over $1000 damage to my Pontiac solstice changing battery. When report damage they said it was already damaged. When their tech took off and replaced side fender panel to access battery he bent the panel and misaligned so could not even open door which chipped paint. The Manager refused to take any responsibility for their incompetent mechanic. Work was done as a sub for AAA to replace bad battery at house. Beware of shoddy work
