I've been a loyal customer for over 24 years. I have had problems with AAA before especially with my son being on the west coast and I being on the east coast. Occasionally there were mix-ups with the wrong information being given between the tow truck driver and the dispatch but were quickly corrected. In Jul/Aug of 2022 time frame, I was stranded on the side of a highway. The vehicle just stopped running. It was approximately 10:00am. I called for a tow and the women I talked to, took all the information and I was told a driver would be in touched with me. I waited and waited and several hours passed but no tow truck. I finally called the tow company and was told they called AAA and told them the tow was out of their jurisdiction. I called the dispatch and was told they were still trying to find a tow truck for me. About this time, another tow company stopped by, gave me his card in the event my tow truck didn't show. Approximately 4:00pm, I called the dispatch again and was told they had no luck finding a tow company but if I wanted to call another company, do so, and they (AAA) would pay the tow. I called the other tow truck company, that stopped earlier, and was being towed about 2 hours later. On the second occasion, I drove my car to a dealership about 10:30am for some Maintenace to be completed but ran into some issue and decided not to leave my car. Tried to start the car but it would not start. I called for a tow about 11:30am. At 2:00pm, I called about the tow and found there was no record of a tow. Started a second tow and two hours later the tow truck never showed. I told the dispatcher, this was the second time they failed to accommodate me. I ended up calling another tow company and AAA was to pay for it. My renewal was to start 01 Oct 2022. On 15 Sep 2022, I received a letter stating, "Upon reviewing your membership, we have elected to non-renew your AAA Membership at the end of your current membership term because of disproportionate use of service". Little did they know, I had no intentions of renewing. This is what 24 years of service gets you with AAA. This policy also had my wife and son on it. Customer beware!
Country of complaint: United States
Desired outcome: I just want other individuals to beware of you are getting with AAA. This company is not what it use to be.
