Long Beach, CA - Five Star Towing, a long time towing and emergency service provider in Long Beach, recently announced the addition of a new car lockout service to round out its offerings to consumers.

Marketing manager Patrick Sommers says the company has been providing its expert service to residents in Long Beach for many years and this added expertise was just a natural evolution. “People come to rely on us for everything to do with emergencies and inconveniences with their cars. Whether it is a breakdown, an accident, and now a lockout, when it comes to vehicle trouble, Five Star Towing is equipped now to handle it all.”

Sommers says a car lockout is something no one expects but something everyone should plan for. This is one of the reasons, he says, it was important to let people know about the new service. “People always have the best of intentions — to give a neighbor a spare key, to hide a key somewhere on a vehicle — but then they get locked out or lose their key and realize they never got around to it.”

He recommends people take the time now to investigate prices, service options and guarantees so when something does happen, they are prepared.

Five Star Towing offers a full range of 24/7 30-minute locksmith services including lock picking, key cutting and duplication, key repair, lock repair, broken ignition key extraction, transponder and chip key repair or replacement and open trunk services.

Sommers says his team is experienced in a full range of locking systems from older models to the most modern and high tech, and from motorcycles to large trucks. That means, he says, they show up knowing how to handle each particular lock out issue, rather than having to guess at what to do.

The company also provides towing services, including emergency and accident towing, and a full range of roadside assistance options. Sommers says whether it is gas delivery, a flat tire fix, dead battery jump start or replacement, or towing because of more complex mechanical issues or an accident, his experienced team knows how to handle the situation.

He says because Five Star Towing’s team is experienced in a wide variety of situations, and is backed by the company’s own price, service and quality guarantees, consumers can be assured they will be helped quickly and by someone who knows what they need. “There is nothing worse in this kind of situation than having someone show up who can’t diagnose the problem, or who isn’t equipped to handle your particular vehicle and needs to call someone else.”

In an emergency, or even in the case of an inconvenient lock out, he says Five Star Towing understand consumers want their problems solved quickly, and professionally and they are equipped and trained to do exactly that.

“We recommend consumers take time now to think about what could happen, to talk to providers to compare prices and service guarantees, and then to keep that number handy so when something does happen, they know who they can call and who they can trust.”
