Got to work and had steam coming from under the hood. It appears one of the heater hoses broke. I can't work on it in our hoity toity Galleria Mall parking garage without getting in trouble with the mall police. Anybody recommend a reasonable towing service to get me from the Galleria Mall to Rowlett?
You got towing insurance or AAA?
Or if you have a SUV with a hitch this is a TCB approved method.

like POS said, if you don't have towing as part of your insurance add it and then call a tow service.
If you can get it across Alpha to the Galleria North parking garage (where I work) you could get it down into the basement or up onto the higher floors and they won't give you grief.
I decided to use AAA and tow it to TDR. It only cost me $44 and my car insurance will pay $40. Towing it home would have cost another $60+, so I would rather pay TDR to put the hoses on instead! :)
Dang that sucks. I replaced both of those hoses the week before you bought the car.
I wouldn't recommend driving it far that way... Something about bearings in the transmission not getting oiled properly when towing... I forget exactly what it was. I disconnected the prop shaft on the spec racer when towing it home from Tennessee.Quote:

Hope all is well with the car Gary.
So it was just a pinhole in the heater hose?
I would fill it up and leave the cap loose so it would not build pressure and drive it.
That happened to me in Richardson at 2am. and I filled it up and drove it to Propwash no problem.
No. Major hose failure.Quote:
