Typical situations in Leisure City

  • Breakdown on US-1. South Dixie Highway carries heavy traffic through Leisure City. A stalled vehicle there needs to be moved quickly and safely.
  • Turnpike trouble. The Turnpike runs along the area. If a vehicle fails there, we need the direction and nearest exit to reach it.
  • Home driveway no-start. A vehicle that will not start at home in the morning. A jump start or tow to your shop resolves it.

Roads and areas we cover around Leisure City

We work on and around US-1 (South Dixie Highway), Florida’s Turnpike, SW 288th Street (Biscayne Drive) and the residential streets of Leisure City, Naranja and Princeton. We also tow from shopping-center lots, apartment complexes and home driveways.

Breakdowns on US-1

If your vehicle fails on US-1, turn into a side street or parking lot if it still moves. If it does not, stay to the right, keep your hazard lights on and call. Tell us the nearest cross street or business so the driver can find you.

Breakdowns on the Turnpike

On the Turnpike, give us your direction of travel and the nearest exit or mile marker. Stay inside the vehicle with your seat belt on unless it is unsafe.

Common causes of breakdowns in south Miami-Dade

  • Battery failure in the heat. High temperatures shorten battery life. A vehicle parked in the sun all day may not start.
  • Overheating in traffic. Slow traffic on US-1 puts stress on cooling systems.
  • Flooded streets. Heavy summer rain can flood low roads. Driving through deep water can stall the engine.
  • Flat tires. Road debris and potholes after storms are common causes.

If a warning light comes on, stop in a safe place and call before the problem gets worse.
