Last-Minute Towing Available
Can’t Reach Us? No Problem!
If you are in Brookfield, WI, and cannot reach our auto repair shop for repairs, but still need them, we are proud to offer fast and reliable towing to our customers. Much like calling your insurance for a tow following a breakdown, we will get your information, locate you on the GPS, and be there in no time. From there, your car, truck, or SUV will be brought back to Silver Lake Auto & Tire Centers for world-class repair, replacement, or maintenance, and we will back our repair work with a generous 36-month warranty. It’s not every day that an auto repair center boasts towing services. We rely on state-of-the-art trucks for this, which can handle towing for all shapes and sizes of models. You shouldn’t have to go through the lengthy chain of contacts with your insurance to get a tow truck driver to your location. We aim to offer the same experience, but even friendlier, and our staff are here to help get you into a loaner car or on our free local shuttle during your repair. We aim to make our customers happy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Roadside assistance covers dead batteries, flats, lockouts, and fuel delivery. Towing is recommended when the vehicle can’t be driven safely—after a mechanical failure, collision, severe tire damage, or when the drivetrain type requires a flatbed (many AWD/4×4 vehicles must be flat-bedded unless the OEM allows otherwise).
Jump starts, tire changes, lockout help, fuel delivery, and minor on-site fixes. When applicable, we’ll preserve 12-volt power to avoid park-lock issues on vehicles with electronic shifters and to keep systems awake for safe loading.
If there’s damage or a fault that risks further harm by driving (engine, transmission, cooling, suspension, or brake concerns). It’s also the safer choice for AWD/4×4 vehicles that shouldn’t be dollied and for models that need Transport/Service Mode enabled (common on European vehicles) before moving.
We use the correct flatbed or wheel-lift method per OEM, secure attachment points, and tow eyes on European bumpers where designed. We follow neutral/park-release procedures for electronic shifters, maintain or supply 12-volt power to manage park locks and steering locks, and activate Transport/Service Mode when required to protect suspensions, air leveling, and alarms.
Yes. If an on-site fix isn’t safe or possible, we switch to a tow immediately—selecting flatbed vs. other methods based on AWD/4×4 requirements and the vehicle’s OEM guidance, and using tow eyes/transport mode/neutral procedures as needed for a damage-free handoff to the repair facility.
