      On 9/13 this company was called by an officer to tow my car because it was taking too long for my insurance company to send someone out. I made clear I did not have the money to pay beforehand and they took my car anyway. I went through my insurance company to pay not only the tow fee but the $75 per day storage fee. My insurance company has called Kinetic multiple times to resolve this issue, left several messages, and they have never answered or returned their calls. This is going on day 7. Which means an extra $525 for Kinetic in storage fees. My insurance company continues to call. When I call Kinetic’s they tell me they haven’t heard from anyone. The calls are all logged in the insurance company’s system. They read them all to me. Please contact my insurance company ASAP.
