3 months agoMy great Friend Mike is the man. I called and told him about my break issue with my family members car not having breaks and he picked it up within the hour to take it to the shop and get it serviced the very next day and now the car has breaks again and runs smoothly. No issues. Excellent service and the best Automotive Techs in the Valley. Hands down. I would recommend this place to anyone in need of a good Automotive Service Tech. Big thank you to Mike and all his Techs for the hand in helping my family out with our vehicles! -

6 months ago100% totally trustworthy! I was on a long road trip, headed from Washington State to South Carolina, when my Blazer sputtered to a stop on the highway, just as I entered Boise. After calling around to a bunch of shops, I stumbled upon ATS. Talking to Mike on the phone, I felt immediately calmed. He fit me in as soon as they opened on Monday and him and his crew spent 3 hours checking every detail, to find the trouble. Turns out, there was no trouble! (I have a sensitive cruise control computer that doesn't like quick elevation gains.) Instead of finding something to charge me for, when there really was nothing wrong, they asked for a small diagnostic fee and sent me on my way with great peace of mind. The car drove smoothly for the 8,650 miles I traveled in the next 5 weeks. I am so grateful for ATS! If I lived in Boise, these guys would be my go-to for all car needs. They are super honest and just all-around good people. -

FAQ
How does Automotive Technical Services determine pricing for towing and roadside assistance?
We base pricing on factors like distance towed, vehicle type, time of day, and specific service needs such as winching or low-clearance handling. Quotes are provided upfront after assessing the situation over the phone or on-site to ensure transparency. This approach helps avoid surprises and matches the job's complexity.
Are you licensed and insured for towing services?
Automotive Technical Services holds all necessary licensing and insurance required for safe towing and roadside operations in Boise, ID. Our NAPA-certified shop further ensures repairs meet industry standards. Vehicle owners can request proof of coverage before any service begins.
Does Automotive Technical Services handle recovery of overturned trailers or low-clearance vehicles like BMWs?
We manage recoveries of overturned trailers on highways and safely tow low-clearance vehicles without damage, as shown in our operations around Boise. Our equipment includes flatbed tow trucks suited for these niche tasks. We also provide transport to our shop for repairs like brakes and engines.
What timeline should I expect for your arrival during an emergency tow?
We aim for rapid response with arrivals as quick as 5 minutes for nearby calls and within an hour for most highway pickups. Our 24/7 availability ensures prompt service regardless of the hour. Expect clear communication on your estimated wait time once we receive your details.
What does Automotive Technical Services do with debris from towing scenes like highway recoveries?
We clear and properly dispose of debris from towing incidents, such as overturned trailers, to leave the scene safe and tidy. This includes securing any loose parts from the vehicle during transport. Our process minimizes hazards for other drivers and complies with local regulations.
Why is professional towing safer than trying roadside fixes yourself?
Our trained team uses specialized flatbed trucks and techniques to lift vehicles securely, avoiding undercarriage damage that DIY methods like pushing or jacking can cause. We handle hazards like highway traffic or unstable loads that pose risks without proper gear. Transporting to a certified shop ensures thorough repairs rather than temporary patches.
