Ivan #56 did a great job getting my car towed home, friendly and fast service!!
Finally getting around to do this review. Sorry it is so late. Back on May 21, 2026 my wife and I headed out with our Ford F250 and our new travel trailer. We were heading to South Eastern Oregon fully loaded when the new transmission blew up. We called for AAA roadside service and they sent Steven from P&M…
Ivan was awesome and very helpful towing my car all the way to a shop in Portland. He was careful and very considerate with the car. A+++ service would highly recommend!
My car broke down on I-5 . Spencer arrived as the tow truck driver. (AAA- P&M Automotive). He was there in less than half an hour from the call. He expertly loaded my car and safely transported it. He was skilled and inspired confidence. I cannot recommend Spencer highly enough. Polite and professional.
I have AAA and they answered my service request for a flat tire within 5 mins. And they showed up within 15min at the location. Cody is amazing and got me back on the road within 15min.

Always so helpful when I have car troubles! Tonight my car wouldn’t start to get me home from work so I needed a tow service and was lucky enough to have Matthew Cravenho come to save the day and get my car and myself home safely.
My new-to-me Shadow Aero 750 obtained from a friend needed to go in for a tune-up (maybe more?). I decided to give it the princess treatment, and called P&M, who I was familiar with from a vehicle related AAA call, to get information about a motorcycle tow. Was given great information and a great price. So a few…
We used P&M through AAA. Had an issue with our car and was pretty sure we needed a tow to the shop. Cody from P&M came first and was super quick to get here and trouble shoot. Fixed the issue but recommended we call out for a battery truck. Aaron came next and arrived WAY faster than the original quoted time through…
Thanx Travis!
David and Travis were wonderful! David quickly analyzed and identified our battery problem. Travis arrived very soon to tow our car to the dealership for a new alternator. I couldn’t speak more highly of the service they both provided.
Travis was quicker than I was, friendly, personable, Nice smile and very handsome. He was very communicative.
Shout out to Travis! Always happy to meet a fellow VW enthusiast!!
Excellent service- My van broke down in a grocery store lot with serveral kids inside on a hot, Sunday afternoon of a 3-day weekend. Called many, many tow trucks through my insurance and they were either working or not available to tow me. Called Omar through AAA. He was at the lot within 30 mins and was wonderful to work with. Very highly recommend.
Omar came and picked us up right away and and was fun to talk to on hour car ride. He clearly knew what he was doing. What a guy
Omar was the best! Top notch work!
Omar was absolutely great! Helped us out a ton and made the experience a fun one despite the circumstances.
