Being stranded along the side of the road can be a stressful and costly ordeal, but Goodyear has just introduced a new program that hopes to alleviate both as much as possible. Launched ahead of the three-day Independence Day weekend, TOW365 is a quick, easy and affordable way to get a tow to a Goodyear service center.
If your car breaks down, all you have to do to get a tow truck to your location is either call 1-877-GYR4TOW or use the smartphone mobile app TOW365, which is available for the iPhone and Android phones. As expected, the service will only take you to a Goodyear-certified service center, but it comes with a discounted price for towing.

Regardless of the size of your car, light truck or SUV, the minimum charge is $39.99 for a tow of up to 10 miles. Need to go further than 10 miles? The fee increases to $59,99, and tows of more than 20 miles add an extra $3.75 per mile. Not only are these rates better than what you can expect from a standard towing service, but you pay the service center for the tow rather than having to worry about a separate towing charge.

If nothing else, the ease at which you can summon a tow truck is the true benefit of TOW365. Either way you use it, this service ensures you won’t have to search for a towing company while you’re sitting on the side of the road, and, more importantly, the app can provide the towing company with your exact location allowing them to reach you more quickly.

As its name suggests, the TOW365 service is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week throughout the year. Better yet, the prices remain the same, and there is no annual membership to worry about.
