First, ensure your safety by moving your vehicle off the roadway if possible. If you’re on a busy road like Highway 15, try to get to the shoulder or a parking lot. Turn on your hazard lights to alert other drivers, and if you have them, place reflective triangles or flares behind your vehicle.
Stay inside your vehicle if you’re on a busy roadway, especially at night. If you must exit your vehicle, exit from the side away from traffic and stay well clear of the roadway. Keep your phone charged and with you so our technician can contact you when they arrive.
If you’re in a safe location like a parking lot, you can wait outside your vehicle if you prefer. Have your keys ready and be prepared to show identification to our technician. If your situation changes or becomes less safe while waiting, call us back immediately so we can adjust our response or provide additional guidance.
Absolutely. Our master-certified technicians have extensive experience working with vehicles of all ages, including classic and vintage cars. We understand that older vehicles may require special care and different approaches than modern cars, and we’re equipped to handle these unique situations.
For classic car owners in the Watkinsville area, we take extra precautions to protect your investment. Our towing equipment includes flatbed options that are safer for low-clearance or specialty vehicles. We also understand the value of original parts and systems, so we’ll work with you to determine the best approach for your specific vehicle.
Whether you’re driving a restored muscle car to a local car show or your daily driver is a well-maintained older vehicle, we provide the same professional service with the added expertise needed for non-standard automotive systems. Our experience with transmission rebuilds and engine work gives us the background to properly assess and assist with older vehicle emergencies.
