“I have AAA, who originally ordered holy city towing (whom not only cancel my service request, they did so without notifying me), but Platinum showed up instead. And, thank God they did! Not only did they come out late for me, the technician was super friendly, professional, and respectful! Next time, screw AAA, I’m calling Platinum directly!”

“I needed a tow home and the guy that came to tow me home was fast and I was home on no time. What a relief it was. Will use again if that ever happens again.”

– Donna B. (Google Review – 5 Stars) April 2021

“The other day my car had died. Like it wouldn’t do anything. I called road side assistance to get a tow ($150) Plantinum Automotive dispatched Erne to my location. When I tell you this young man was a God sent, I mean it with all my heart. Most tow truck drivers would have just took the money and dropped your where ever cause it’s just a job. But not Erne. Erne is out here really caring about people. He told me “Let me look under your hood before I hook you up” I don’t know what he did but my car went from doing nothing to starting up. He put a little extra time into doing a little more and I’m greatful. I was able to safely drive my car to where I needed to be and saved money. I believe the phrase not all heroes wear capes is over used but in the case of Erne nothing can be more fitting. Thank you.”
