My question involves towing laws for the State of: California
Hello everyone, I really need your advice here:
I had my truck in a friend's driveway. The truck can't move because of a differential problem. I went to have it tow to a shop this afternoon, so i called AAA. The tow truck shows up, but the guy said that because the wheels can move he can't/will do it with a flat bed, he said the it needs to be done with a dolley truck.
I called AAA again and they say one hour. Since it's been a couple of hours we go get something to eat.
When we return the truck is goneI tought that the driver took it without calling us. However we call AAA and after a while they told me that the car has been impound!
I spoke with the tow company and they said the property owner call them to have it removed from his property. We're no longer friends, but he let me keep the truck there. He saw I was there, when we got back he was gone.
I can't get a hold of him, but I don't think he did it.
However after some diging, it turns out that the same company that AAA sent to tow our truck, was the one the impounded our carwhat kind of scam is that?
They want $335 to release it.
I feel like they stole my car, plain and simple and now they want to extort money out of me.
Some help please, I don't have that kind of money after Christmas spending.
Thank you
