The Auto Club also honored 11 other service providers who received an “Excellent Rating” in overall satisfaction, driver satisfaction and satisfaction with response time. These 11 providers received the prestigious Five Diamond roadside service award and comprise the top 3% of the Auto Club’s 400-member service provider network in the 13 southern most counties in the state.
Service Pro awards are presented to Auto Club roadside providers that exceed standards in all measured areas for the entire year. Only 6% of the stations qualified for the prestigious award.
The station with the highest overall performance receives the top award as the Service Provider of the Year. The company with outstanding performance in the AAA Battery Service Program is named Battery Service Provider of the Year.
In addition, R.B.S. Towing in Ramona was honored for 50 years of roadside service and St. Clair Automotive in Ridgecrest was honored for 60 years of roadside service to the Auto Club.
The Service Pro honors were given at the Auto Club’s annual service awards luncheon held at the Hilton Los Angeles/Universal City. The theme of the awards luncheon was “On The Road Again.” Keynote speaker was author, university instructor and life coach Richard Flint.
“Amidst ever-increasing fuel costs, changes in technology and increases in volume and natural disasters, the Auto Club’s tow contractors continue to demonstrate that they are the industry leaders,” said David Lang, vice president of Automotive Services for the Auto Club. “Today we recognize the top-notch service, professionalism and hard work that the Club’s independent contract station owners provide to our members.”
