Customer Reviews
I paid over $4,000.00 to have them work on my Volkswagen. I had a “EPC” light that continuously flashed on my vehicle. It caused the vehicle to burn oil at a higher rate and loss of acceleration and overall horsepower. Rods had my vehicle for two weeks. Now I sit here a little over a month later after driving just 3,000 miles with essentially no oil in my vehicle even though it’s not due for an oil change for more than 4,000 miles and the EPC light showing again. It’s in worse condition now than before.They claimed they changed the throttle body and tubing that goes in and out of it. I’ve never left a review for any company before but as I sit here stranded in the middle of nowhere frustrated by over $4,000.00 worth of repairs and a car that doesn’t run I feel compelled to share my family’
Would maybe use again for a tow, but I wouldn’t let them work on my vehicle again. Had to pay for another tow to a different shop after they couldn’t figure out the issue. I ended up with a big bill and more problems with the vehicle than when it came in. Nothing was fixed. I even asked the guy in charge beforehand if they knew how to work on old Jeeps and if he was comfortable taking a look at it and he assured me they were up to the task and said “oh yeah these guys all drive old stuff, they know how to work on them”. Perhaps it’s a fine place to have oil changed or get tires rotated, but I would absolutely not recommend them for any type of mechanical diagnosis or repair work.
Absolutely horrible experience with Rod’s Towing. They were extremely rude, unprofessional, and treated me with zero respect. Instead of helping, they made the situation worse with their attitude and lack of professionalism. I would never use them again and would not recommend them to anyone.
For your vehicle's sake and your financial well-being, consider alternative service providers. This company has a history of billing for unperformed services, such as filter and spark plug replacements, and their maintenance work falls short despite expensive rates.
Rods to the rescue. Such a lovely buisness. The staff is always so kind and polite. We will definitely be using them again when needed. Thank you Rods for all you do.
