What Is Roadside Assistance?

Let’s face it—car trouble always hits at the worst possible time. Whether you're late for work, out grabbing groceries in Saint Joseph, or heading up I-94 for a weekend getaway, that sudden thud, stall, or flashing light on your dash brings everything to a halt. That’s exactly where roadside assistance comes in.


At Zielke Towing & Tire, our 24/7 roadside assistance in Southwest Michigan is more than just towing. It's peace of mind. It's a friendly, local team that shows up when things go sideways. It's knowing someone has your back—no matter where you’re stuck or what time it is.


🔧 So, What’s Included in Roadside Assistance?

Here’s what we offer anytime, anywhere:

  • Flat Tire Change: If your tire’s blown out near Bridgman, we’ll come replace it with your spare or bring a tire if needed. No jacks or wrestling lug nuts alone in the cold.

  • Jump Start Service: Dead battery in the driveway or parking lot? We’ll get you started and rolling again in no time.

  • Fuel and Gas Delivery: Out of gas on a country road in Covert? We’ll bring fuel directly to your vehicle—gas or diesel.

  • Lockout Service: Locked your keys in the car? Happens to the best of us. Our techs can get you back inside damage-free.

  • Winch Out Service: Snow, mud, or soft sand—we can pull your vehicle out of almost anything.

  • Vehicle Recovery: Off-road or accident-related? We have the equipment for light, medium, and heavy-duty recoveries.

And if the problem can’t be fixed on-site, we’ll tow your vehicle to your mechanic—or bring it straight to our shop for full-service repair, brakes, transmission work, or diagnostics.


🕒 Why 24/7 Matters—Because Breakdowns Don’t Keep Office Hours

Emergencies don’t wait for 9–5. That’s why we don't either. Whether it’s 2 AM in Benton Harbor or Christmas Day in Hartford, you can count on us to answer your call. Every minute you're stranded is a minute too long. Our round-the-clock service is built to move fast and get you safely back on the road—day or night, rain or shine.


📍 Real Story: Coloma Snowstorm Rescue

Just this past February, a family driving home from a ski trip got stuck in a ditch outside Coloma during a heavy snowstorm. Cold, shaken, and with kids in the car, they called us. One of our local drivers arrived in under 25 minutes and winched them out safely. No damage, no stress, no waiting hours for help to arrive from "somewhere else." That’s the benefit of going local with Zielke.

Here's a deeper look at each of our most-requested roadside assistance services, available 24/7 throughout Berrien County and Van Buren County.




Each service below is handled by trained local techs who live and work right here in Southwest Michigan. Whether you're stuck near Watervliet, on I-94, or a backroad near Mattawan, we’re ready.



🚗 Problem:

You turn the key... nothing. Maybe it's freezing cold or you left the headlights on. Either way, your battery is drained, and you're not going anywhere.


🛠️ How We Help:

Our techs arrive with a heavy-duty jump box or jump cables and the know-how to safely start any vehicle—car, SUV, truck, RV, or commercial van.


📍 Where It Happens:

Common places we jump-start vehicles include store parking lots, gas stations, homes, and job sites across Benton Harbor, Baroda, Bridgman, and more.


💡 Tip:

Don’t try to jump your car off a stranger’s battery—modern vehicles have sensitive electronics that can be damaged by improper connections. We’ll do it safely.

📞 Need a jump? Call us now at (269) 925-9573


🚗 Problem:

Flat tire on the highway? Or maybe you hit a pothole in downtown Saint Joseph and now the rim’s bent. Whatever the cause, you can’t drive safely.


🛠️ How We Help:

We’ll come to your location and replace the flat with your spare. If your spare is missing or also flat, we’ll tow you to our shop or nearby tire facility.


🧰 What We Bring:

  • Lug wrenches

  • Jacks

  • Air compressors

  • Torque tools

  • Flashlights (for night service)

We handle all the lifting and heavy work—you just stay warm and safe.


🚨 Safety Reminder:

Don’t try changing a tire on a narrow shoulder or in poor visibility. Let us handle it while you stay inside your vehicle.


🚗 Problem:

You’re in a rush. You shut the door, and then it hits you—your keys are still inside. It happens to everyone. But now what?


🛠️ How We Help:

We use professional lockout tools to access your vehicle without breaking glass or causing damage. Our team can unlock most vehicles in minutes.


🔐 Experience Matters:

Modern cars with electronic locks or side airbags need special tools and techniques. We’ve got both.


We’ve helped drivers locked out at:

  • Restaurants in Stevensville

  • Shopping centers in Eau Claire

  • Residential driveways in Covert

  • Gas stations in Hartford

📞 Call (269) 925-9573 and we’ll get you back in fast.


🚗 Problem:

The needle was on E, and you thought you'd make it to the next gas station. Now you’re stuck with an empty tank and no way to get help.


🛠️ How We Help:

We deliver fuel directly to your location—gasoline or diesel, in the right container, and with enough to get you where you need to go.


🚗 Common Scenarios:

  • Running dry on Red Arrow Highway

  • Farmers needing diesel on the edge of Lawrence

  • Vacationers stranded near Paw Paw Lake

Our drivers respond quickly and handle fuel delivery safely and legally—no need to hike with a jug or call a ride.


🚗 Problem:

If a jump-start doesn't fix the issue, your battery may be completely dead or damaged. Some batteries just can't hold a charge anymore.


🛠️ How We Help:

We test your battery on the spot. If it’s no good, we can install a replacement from our stock or tow you to our shop for further electrical service.


🔍 On-Site Testing Includes:

  • Voltage check

  • Load test

  • Visual inspection for corrosion or broken terminals

We carry common battery sizes and can recommend the best fit based on your vehicle’s needs.


🚗 Problem:

You slid off the road into a ditch. Or maybe you’re stuck in deep snow or soft mud with no traction and spinning wheels.


🛠️ How We Help:

We use our winch system to safely pull your vehicle back onto stable ground without causing damage. Whether it’s a car, pickup, van, or RV—we’ve got the equipment to handle it.


🧊 Common During:

  • Winter storms in Fairplain

  • Spring thaw in Hagar Shores

  • Off-road trails near Sister Lakes


🚗 Problem:

If your vehicle is flipped, stuck down an embankment, or involved in a serious accident, simple towing won’t cut it—you need a recovery team.


🛠️ How We Help:

We specialize in complex recoveries. Our team is trained for high-risk retrievals and comes equipped with heavy-duty rigs, flatbeds, and rigging tools.


We’ve recovered:

  • Semi-trucks jackknifed on icy I-94

  • RVs in ditches

  • Vans stuck in soft farm fields

📍 Our knowledge of local terrain makes recovery safe, fast, and cost-efficient.


If your vehicle needs to be hauled beyond city limits—say, from Mattawan to Kalamazoo or Saint Joseph to Chicago—we’ve got you covered. Our flatbed tow trucks are built for long hauls and safe transport over extended distances.

This is ideal for:

  • Transporting vehicles after breakdowns or accidents

  • Out-of-town repairs or dealership deliveries

  • Vacationers needing to get a car back home




Our Fast Response Guarantee — Because Time Matters

When you're stuck on the side of the road, time feels like it's standing still. The longer you wait, the more stressful the situation becomes—especially if you’re on a busy highway, it’s late at night, or you’ve got kids or groceries in the car. At Zielke Towing & Tire, we don’t just say we’ll be there fast—we back it up with real action and local readiness.

That’s why we proudly stand behind our Fast Response Guarantee.

In most areas, our average roadside response time is:

  • 25–35 minutes in major towns

  • 30–45 minutes for rural or off-highway calls

  • 15–20 minutes in high-volume zones like Stevensville or Saint Joseph Township

We're not dispatching from an office across the state—we're already right here in your neighborhood.


📞 Stuck now? Don’t wait. Call (269) 925-9573 and we’ll dispatch a driver ASAP.


🚨 Why Fast Response Matters

The truth is, every minute counts. Whether you're broken down during a snowstorm or it's blazing hot in the summer sun, our goal is to keep you safe, reduce your wait time, and solve the issue without delay.


Here’s what quick response really means for you:

What to Do When You’re Stranded on the Road in Southwest Michigan

Being stranded on the side of the road is frustrating, scary, and sometimes downright dangerous—especially on a busy highway like I-94, a dark country road in Berrien Springs, or during one of Michigan’s wild winter storms. Whether it’s car trouble, a flat tire, or you ran out of gas, the key is knowing what to do next.




We’ve helped thousands of drivers in your shoes, and we’re here to walk you through it step by step.


🚨 Step 1: Stay Calm and Stay Safe

The first thing is to breathe. This happens to people every day—seriously. Don’t panic. Now focus on safety first, both for yourself and your passengers.


If possible:

  • Pull your vehicle off the road to a safe shoulder or nearby lot.

  • Turn on your hazard lights immediately.

  • Stay inside your car with seatbelts on, especially on highways or at night.

  • If you must exit (like for a fire or smoke), move far off the roadway.

Avoid standing next to traffic or trying to “flag down” help—it’s dangerous and unnecessary when you can call us directly.


📍 Step 2: Know Your Location

To get help to you fast, we’ll need to know roughly where you are. Look for:

  • Mile markers on highways like I-94, M-139, or Red Arrow Highway

  • Nearby businesses or street signs

  • Landmarks like gas stations, schools, or intersections

  • Use your phone’s GPS for your current location

This info helps us dispatch the closest available driver to you with the right tools.


📞 Step 3: Call Zielke Towing & Tire — (269) 925-9573


Here’s what we’ll ask:

  • Where you’re located

  • What happened (flat tire, dead battery, etc.)

  • What kind of vehicle you’re driving

  • If anyone is with you or if it's an emergency situation

We’ll immediately dispatch a driver based on your exact need and nearest location—no long holds, no transferring to other services. Just real help, real fast.


🧰 Step 4: Let Us Handle It From There

Once we’re on the way, you can relax. We’ll take it from here.

Depending on the issue:

  • We’ll perform an on-the-spot fix (jump start, tire change, fuel delivery, lockout, etc.)

  • Or we’ll tow your vehicle to our shop or your preferred repair center

  • If repairs are needed, we offer full-service diagnostics, brakes, drivetrain, transmission, and more

And while you wait, we’ll stay in communication so you’re never left wondering what’s going on.


🧊 Bonus Tips: What to Keep in Your Car for Roadside Emergencies

Michigan weather can be unpredictable. It’s smart to keep these items in your trunk or glove box year-round:

  • Small blanket or emergency thermal blanket

  • Phone charger or power bank

  • Flashlight with extra batteries

  • Reflective triangles or flares

  • Bottled water

  • Copy of Zielke’s number: (269) 925-9573

Related Services You May Need

Not every vehicle issue ends with a jump start or tire change. Sometimes, what seems like a simple roadside problem can point to a deeper issue under the hood—or under the vehicle. That’s why Zielke Towing & Tire offers more than just fast roadside help. We’re also a full-service auto and truck repair center, trusted throughout Southwest Michigan.




Once we get you off the roadside, we can take your vehicle straight to our facility for diagnostics and repairs. That way, you’re not stuck calling a second shop, paying another tow, or dealing with long delays.


Here’s a detailed look at the related services our roadside customers most often need:



What it Covers:

If you heard grinding, squealing, or had trouble stopping before your breakdown, it may not just be a fluke. Brake issues can lead to roadside emergencies and need to be addressed immediately.


We repair:

  • Brake pads and rotors worn down from heat or age

  • Leaking brake lines and hoses

  • Sticking calipers that cause uneven stopping

  • Master cylinder failures and ABS issues


Why It Matters:

Failing brakes can leave you stranded—or worse. After a roadside service, we always recommend checking the braking system if any red flags were present.



What it Covers:

If your car felt shaky, bouncy, or unsteady before breaking down, there may be an issue with your steering or suspension system.


We repair:

  • Shocks and struts that are leaking or blown out

  • Ball joints, bushings, and control arms worn from age

  • Tie rod ends and rack & pinion steering units

  • Power steering pumps and fluid leaks


Why It Matters:

Unstable handling can make your car harder to control—especially in bad weather or emergency stops. It’s one of the most overlooked causes of roadside issues.



What it Covers:

If your car stalled or wouldn’t restart, it may not just be a dead battery. Engine trouble can sneak up quickly—and leave you stranded.


We diagnose and repair:

  • Timing belts, chains, and tensioners

  • Valve cover and head gasket leaks

  • Fuel injection problems and misfires

  • Thermostats, overheating, and engine sensors


Why It Matters:

Your engine is the heart of the vehicle. If it’s not working right, nothing else matters. We can tow your car in, diagnose it fast, and get you back on the road.



What it Covers:

If your vehicle slipped out of gear, had trouble accelerating, or stopped moving altogether, there’s a good chance the transmission needs attention.


We handle:

  • Transmission fluid flushes and filter replacements

  • Leak detection and gasket repairs

  • Rebuilds or full replacement of damaged units


Why It Matters:

A faulty transmission doesn’t always give much warning. If we suspect a drivetrain issue during a tow or service call, we’ll recommend a full inspection at our shop.



What it Covers:

Not every no-start is a battery problem. Electrical failures can mimic a dead battery but involve completely different repairs.


We diagnose and fix:

  • Bad alternators and starters

  • Faulty battery cables and corroded terminals

  • Power window or lock motors

  • Engine sensors and computer modules (ECMs)


Why It Matters:

Today’s vehicles rely on complex electrical systems. A weak battery may just be a symptom of a bigger issue—our techs can pinpoint the exact cause.



What it Covers:

If your A/C was blowing hot air or the defroster wasn’t clearing the windshield before your breakdown, the HVAC system could be compromised.


We service:

  • AC compressors, condensers, and refrigerant lines

  • Cabin air filters and blower motors

  • Heater cores, hoses, and thermostats

  • System recharge and leak detection with dye testing


Why It Matters:

Poor climate control isn’t just uncomfortable—it’s dangerous in extreme cold or heat. We help restore comfort and safety inside your vehicle.



What it Covers:

Loud noises or strong fumes after a breakdown may indicate an exhaust issue.


We inspect and repair:

  • Mufflers and resonators

  • Exhaust leaks and loose hangers

  • Catalytic converters and 02 sensors

  • Exhaust manifold and gaskets


Why It Matters:

A bad exhaust system can lower performance, increase emissions, and even pose carbon monoxide risks. We’ll make sure your system is sealed and running clean.



What it Covers:

If your car clunks when shifting or vibrates during turns or acceleration, it may be a drivetrain issue that needs immediate repair.


We service:

  • Axles and CV joints

  • U-joints and driveshafts

  • Differentials and gear fluid

  • 4WD and AWD systems


Why It Matters:

Drivetrain issues can turn a simple drive into a breakdown risk. We make sure power gets from your engine to your wheels the right way—every time.

We can handle most roadside issues right where you’re stuck, including:

If it’s something more complex (like engine or transmission issues), we’ll tow your vehicle to our repair shop or to a location you request.


Do you service rural areas or just cities?

We absolutely service rural roads, farms, backroads, and smaller towns throughout Southwest Michigan—not just big cities. From Coloma and Eau Claire to Mattawan and Lawrence, we go where you are.

  • Cars and SUVs

  • Pickup trucks and work vans

  • Exact or approximate location (GPS, address, or nearby landmark)

  • Type of vehicle (make/model/year)

  • What happened (dead battery, flat tire, locked out, etc.)

  • Any safety concerns (e.g., children, pets, blocked traffic)

We’ll handle the rest.


Do you accept credit cards or just cash?

We accept:

  • Cash

  • All major credit/debit cards

  • Some mobile payments (ask when calling)

Payment is collected after the service is completed, and receipts are always provided.


Are your drivers trained and insured?

Yes. All Zielke roadside technicians are:

  • Trained and certified

  • Fully insured

  • Locally based

  • Experienced with roadside repairs, recovery, and customer safety protocols

We don’t send just anyone. We send experts.


What if I need more than just a tow—like engine or brake repairs?

You’re in the right place.

We offer full-service vehicle repairs, so if your breakdown turns into something bigger, we can:

  • Tow your vehicle to our shop

  • Run full diagnostics

  • Handle everything from brakes to engine repair to transmission service

No need to make a second phone call. We’ve got you covered from roadside to repair.


Conclusion: When You Need Roadside Help, Zielke’s Already on the Way

Car problems never come with a warning—but having someone reliable to call makes all the difference. Whether you're stuck with a flat tire in Saint Joseph, locked out in Coloma, or dead on the shoulder of I-94 near Benton Harbor, you need more than just a tow—you need someone who shows up fast, gets the job done right, and treats you like family.

That’s exactly what we’ve been doing at Zielke Towing & Tire for nearly two decades.

With 24/7 roadside assistance, fully equipped trucks, and local techs who know Southwest Michigan like the back of their hand, we’re the team people count on when everything goes wrong.
