AAA has temporarily suspended its mobile EV charger truck program, which operated in select metro areas including Orlando, San Francisco, Denver, and Philadelphia, according to Torque News. Stranded EV drivers in those markets who run out of charge now receive a tow to the nearest charging station or dealership rather than an on-the-spot charge, increasing tow call volume in those corridors.
Operator takeaway
Every suspended EV charge call becomes a tow call. If you operate in Orlando, San Francisco, Denver, or Philadelphia and you handle AAA dispatch, your EV tow volume may already be up. Ask your motor club contact whether your contract covers the additional call load.
