Tow Truck Service Uses 1-Ton Wrecker to Winch Nissan Altima
A client in desperate need of a tow truck service reached out to McGann & Chester last week. The customer had been driving his Nissan Altima through a heavily wooded area by his house when disaster struck.
The dense foliage made it impossible for the driver to see the sudden drop in elevation ahead. With not enough time to stop, the sedan lost control and slid down a hill. A large rock in the middle of the path brought the car to a sudden stop. Unfortunately, that same rock kept the driver from attempting to reverse the vehicle back up the hill.
McGann & Chester dispatched a 1-ton flatbed tow truck to recover the vehicle from it’s unfortunate parking spot. The team ran two lines from the tow truck, one around a tree for support and the other connected to the Nissan.
The team made quick work of recovering the vehicle and securing it to their flatbed. They brought it to a repair shop as the car had sustained damage during the original incident.
Great work out there team! Your efficient work exemplified why we are Pittsburgh’s top recovery company. Keep it up!
