      Thank you
      for the opportunity to investigate the customer’s issue with their vehicle
      registration.

      On February 22, 2022, the
      member and her husband went to the AAA East Central branch in East Liberty,
      Pa., to have her husband’s vehicle registered. The transaction was processed
      manually. A temporary registration card is issued, and the Pennsylvania
      Department of Transportation (PennDOT) later mails their permanent registration
      directly to their home address. If for any reason the registration paperwork is
      rejected, PennDOT notifies the customer and AAA in writing via USPS. We advise
      the customer to contact AAA if they do not receive the permanent vehicle
      registration.

      AAA East
      Central did not receive any rejection notification from PennDOT, and the
      customer did not contact the East Liberty branch manager until May 9, 2023,
      therefore, we were unaware of any issues until 15 months after the original
      transaction. PennDot has not provided an answer as to why the initial
      transaction was rejected by them.

      Our AAA
      branch specialist, Rose, and the customer have been in contact via phone and
      email since May 9, 2023. On July 6, 2023, Rose spoke with the customer advising
      her to contact their leasing company to forward the title and limited Power of
      Attorney (POA) to our AAA branch so the paperwork can be resubmitted to
      PennDot. On July 10, 2023, the member contacted Rose via phone and advised that
      the title and POA would be sent overnight from their leasing company that day. As
      our AAA branch has not received the documents to date, the branch manager,
      Alicia, phoned the member. The member indicated that her husband was contacting
      their leasing company but was now unsure when he would contact them. Alicia offered
      to send an email to the member noting the documents needed from the leasing
      company to assist the member and her husband in their request to the leasing
      company.

      Once our
      AAA branch receives the documents, the member will need to stop into the AAA East Liberty branch to have the transaction resubmitted to PennDOT for the registration to be processed.

      I have been a AAA Premier member for over 20 years. My Tesla broke down last night and I requested a tow to my house 5 miles away. I waited 3 hours before giving up. The dispatcher Nelson from AAA told me that the local garages Lowry's Auto Body and Leonards Towing refuse to tow Tesla's. A Tesla can be towed on a roll back just like any other car. I spoke with both garage's and it appears to me that they are both doing this to make a politcal statement. I would like a full refund of my membership or a credit for a free year. They left me stranded on the side of the road and I had to have a friend come down with a trailer for me to get my car home. This is unacceptable.

      Thank you
      for the opportunity to research the member’s concern with his recent roadside service
      request. We extend our sincerest apologies to the member for the issues that he
      experienced. Below is a summary of his service experience and the resolution
      offered and accepted.

      On June 20,
      2023, at 9:38 p.m., the member placed a service call for his 2020 Tesla Model Y
      to be towed. Lowry’s Auto Body Inc, our independent contract station, was
      initially contacted to tow the vehicle. They were unable to provide service for
      the electric vehicle. AAA Dispatch contacted other independent contractor
      stations who were also unable to provide service for the Tesla. AAA Dispatch
      then contacted a private provider that was able to tow the vehicle; however, the
      member was offered this option but declined. Alternatively, the member contacted
      a friend with a trailer to assist him. They loaded the Tesla onto the trailer
      and towed the vehicle the 4.1 miles to his home.

      On June 21,
      2023, the member’s service issue was escalated to our AAA regional operations manager
      to review and address the lack of service with the independent contract
      stations that were involved with this service request. In addition, the field
      management team is currently working with roadside trainers and the independent
      contract stations to schedule and continue to rollout the enhanced specialized
      training targeted towards safely servicing electric vehicles.

      Judy
      B*********** a representative from our AAA Member Relations Department contacted the
      member on June 21, 2023, to extend our apologies. Judy offered to refund the member’s
      current membership year dues for the lack of roadside assistance and inconvenience caused. The member accepted this resolution.

      I had a AAA roadside assistance membership at the Plus level. It was on auto-pay (in which AAA directly charges my credit card without informing me) and the annual renewal date was February 28. On November 6, 2022, I downgraded my membership to the Classic level and paid $27.00, which was the annual rate that AAA was currently charging for that level of service.

      It was only when I received my credit card statement this spring that I learned that AAA had not switched my membership to the Classic level. On February 22, 2023, AAA erroneously charged my credit card $90.00, which is the annual amount for the Plus membership level.

      AAA also needs to credit me for the three months (December, January, February), which were already paid up, after I downgraded my service and paid for the new level. That prorated amount is $22.50 ($90 divided by 12 months is $7.50 per month, multiplied by the 3 months). Thus, the total that AAA owes me is $112.50.

      When I contacted them to fix this mistake, they reimbursed me only $60.00. Thus, they still owe me $52.50.

      I have repeatedly contacted AAA about these errors, which they still have not fully corrected. And any reasoning AAA has tried to provide for not doing so is incorrect and nonsensical.

      Business Response

      Date: 06/15/2023

      Thank you for the opportunity to
      research the member’s concerns with their AAA membership dues. We extend our
      sincere apologies to the member for the issues that they experienced.

      The member
      was enrolled in our AAA Plus membership level with auto pay. As in previous
      years, every December a renewal offer with updated membership cards have been
      mailed to the member, noting that their credit card would automatically be
      charged $90 in February.

      Unfortunately,
      in November 2022, there was a system error that generated a Classic membership half-price
      special offer to obtain new members that was mailed to the member at the same
      street address but a different apartment number. It seems the member believed
      this offer was her yearly membership dues and sent in payment of $27.

      In April
      2023, the member contacted us to remove the new membership account that was
      created in November 2022. A refund for $27 was processed on April 18, 2023.
      Also, the member requested to change their
      current membership from Plus level to Classic level. A refund of $33 was
      processed on April 28, 2023, which leaves the Classic level membership dues at
      $57 for the membership year that expires February 28, 2024.

      As a
      gesture of goodwill and the inconvenience caused, we would like to extend the membership
      half-price limited time offer of $27 for the current membership year’s Classic
      dues to the member. We will then refund the member an additional $30. An email
      from Susan, our AAA manager of Membership Marketing was sent to the member on
      June 13, 2023, noting this information. The member can contact ***** ** **************************** ** ************ to confirm this
      resolution.

      I called AAA back in April to cancel my membership only to be charged causing multiple overdraft fees. Once I noticed I was charged I then went back into the app to find that my membership was not canceled, so I canceled it a second time. I then called AAA to ask why I was charged and why wasn't my membership canceled. They offered a refund, so I waited. After 2 weeks had gone by I called again just to find out the refund was never submitted. I was told that they would refund my membership but were not willing to pay for what they caused.

      Business Response

      Date: 06/05/2023

      Thank you for the opportunity to
      research the member’s recent membership cancellation issue. We extend our
      sincere apologies to the member for the issues that they experienced.

      The member
      notes that they called to cancel their membership in April; however, we do not
      have any record of that phone call. Our records indicate that on May 12, 2023, the
      member spoke with a AAA branch representative, Brenda, in the Jamestown branch
      requesting to cancel their membership, due to an automatic payment processed
      two days earlier which caused an overdraft on their bank account. Brenda added
      the cancellation to the membership account and informed the member that the
      branch cannot process the refund and to phone back in 10 days to check the
      status of the refund. The system automatically processes a refund within 7-10
      days of the cancellation.

      On May 25,
      2023, the member phoned and spoke to AJ, a AAA Member Service Call Center
      supervisor, noting that they had not received the membership dues refund. AJ immediately
      sent a support email to issue the credit as it appeared there was a system
      error that did not process the refund on May 12.

      Our AAA
      Membership Marketing manager, Susan, spoke to the member on June 1, 2023, and
      confirmed that they received the refund of $93.

      Unfortunately,
      we are unable to refund any overdraft fees as new membership card(s) and the renewal
      notice were sent on March 15, 2023, advising that an automatic payment,
      previously established by the member, would be charged to their credit card in
      May.

      I have been a member for the last 4 years and haven’t used the service in the last 3 years but I continually paid my fee just in case and this morning I had an emergency to when my son was taking me to work his car broke down in my coworkers driveway. Rather than be late to work my coworker got us a ride. I tried to get them to tow the car to get fixed and they refused to tow it because I wouldn’t be there. They told me to wait until after work, which would have been too late for anywhere to fix it today. I needed this car fixed today as my other car is broke down. I had to pay 187 dollars to have the car towed. Ridiculous I had to pay for something I already was paying for. Not everyone has the luxury of missing a day of work to get a car towed.

      Date: 05/26/2023

      Thank you
      for the opportunity to research the member’s recent roadside assistance
      experience. We extend our sincere apologies to
      the member for the unsatisfactory experience she encountered.

      As noted by
      the member, when she attempted to have her son’s vehicle towed, service was
      denied as she was not with the vehicle at that time, and the vehicle was
      registered to her son.  AAA policy does
      not allow for a tow when the member is not with the vehicle and it is
      registered to another individual. This is to ensure there is no misuse of AAA
      membership services and to avoid
      vehicle theft.

      On May 23, 2023, the
      member was contacted via email requesting the receipt for the private towing service they obtained. The
      member forwarded the receipt that same day. A reimbursement check has been
      requested in the amount of $189.00. The member should receive the check within
      7-10 business days. The member was advised of the reimbursement via email on
      May 24, 2023.

      On April 27, 2023 I took out an auto insurance policy for $148.40. The DMV would not let me pay for insurance for someone else. I called scott back and canceled the same day. He begged me to keep it open for 10 days. Nothing was going to change in 10 days and I insisted on a refund. scott informed me I'd lose % 10 I said fine, return the balance. Three days later I called back and was told sign papers he emailed me. The links he sent were wrong. They could not be signed. scott assured me I don't need to sign he'll take care of it. Three days later I spoke with the jason. Then I spoke with a female agent. See where I'm going with this. I called my bank they said 7 to 10 days. One week later I called my bank, and they said now it's going to be 45 to 90 days. aaa seems like they don't like to refund money. I bought a watch once, it broke, and it couldn't be fixed. Seems like the same situation. That's fine I'll warn my friends and family about this firm.

      Thank you for the opportunity to
      research the member’s concern with his recent insurance transaction. We extend
      our sincere apologies to the member for the issues that he experienced. Below
      is a summary and the resolution offered and accepted.

      Unfortunately,
      the insurance policy should not have been written, as the vehicle was not being
      registered to the member but rather to his girlfriend. The policy should
      have been flat cancelled effective April 26, 2023; however, it was cancelled on
      April 27, 2023, resulting in a short rate to the member. 

      Our
      AAA insurance sales manager, Kylie, requested the cancellation date be
      corrected to April 26, 2023, to have the policy flat cancelled. This involves a
      few days for the system to process the request. Once the correction is
      completed, a refund check will be issued and mailed to the member. Kylie
      contacted the member to confirm his new PO Box address and provided her contact
      information if he has any further concerns or questions.

      The
      member was satisfied with this resolution.

      Thank you for the
      opportunity to research the member’s concern with his recent service request. We extend our sincerest apologies to the
      member for the issues that he experienced. Below is a summary of his service
      experience and the resolution offered and accepted.

      On May 09, 2023, at
      6:08 p.m., the member contacted AAA through the automated system for roadside
      assistance. His first service call was processed as a jump start. The member
      was contacted regarding the service, and he then informed AAA that his vehicle
      needed to be towed. That service call was cancelled. The member contacted AAA a second time at 6:25 p.m. requesting a tow for his vehicle. J&S
      Roadside LLC, our independent contract station, was dispatched to provide the
      tow. This contract station was unable to provide service and declined the call.
      AAA then dispatched another independent contract station, Angelo’s Towing. Our Dispatch department attempted to contact the member multiple times to advise of
      the delay in arrival but were unable to reach him. At 9:36 p.m., the member
      cancelled his service call due to the long wait. The vehicle still has not been
      towed.

      Judy B*********** a
      representative from our Member Relations department contacted the member on May
      23, 2023, to also extend our apologies. She informed the member that his
      concerns regarding the delay in service have been escalated to the field manager
      and addressed. Judy has issued a refund of $49.75 which represents the membership
      dues he has paid for his current membership year. In addition, when the member
      chooses to have his vehicle towed, the service call will not be counted towards
      his annual roadside assistance allotment for the current membership year. The
      member accepted this resolution.

      I called AAA at 1:32PM broke down along rt 17 in Arcadia Fl. Received request number ***** and was told a tow company would call me soon. After receiving 2 text messages stating they were busy the texts stopped so I called in again at 3pm to find out no one was coming. Was on the phone for 51 minutes with a very helpfull lady but she could not secure me a tow truck prior to our call being disconnected. I called back at 7pm spoke with a Kayly, Kiana, and ROsalie and told them I was tired of waiting and needed a tow truck today I pay for AAA for this reason, Im 1100 miles from home and need help and you guys let me stranded along the road for 7 hrs???? Rosalie said at 7:48 pm she secured me a tow and eta was 30 minutes. I wanted to wait on phone but she would not. Said she would call me in 30 minutes which she NEVER did. Able towing di finally show up and to finfd out the are located less that 1 mile from where I sat for 7 hrs is beyond any explaniation you can provide. Im requesting someone from AAA to explane WHY I pay for roadside service that took 7 hrs to secure a tow from someone less that 1 mile away other that not wanting to call someone out of you network due to cost with me sitting 1100 miles from home not knowing who to call or where to go. Also Please give me one reason to renew a premier membership that Ive had for years???

      Thank you for allowing us
      the opportunity to investigate our member’s concerns with service in Florida on
      April 13, 2023.

      We understand that the member
      called for service at approximately 1:30pm on Highway 17 in Arcadia, Florida. He
      initially received contact alerting him of the delay, but after that,
      communication ceased, and he had to follow up to obtain information. We have spoken with the Auto Club Group, our AAA affiliate club that provides
      service in Florida. The Auto Club Group management team is addressing the
      miscommunication and excessive delay in service to ensure this does not happen
      to another member.

      A representative from our
      Member Relations team spoke with the member on May 3, 2023, to extend our sincere
      apologies and assured him that this is not the level of service he has come to
      know or should expect from AAA. Therefore, we are refunding his last
      membership dues payment as a gesture of goodwill. The member was satisfied
      with this resolution. He should receive the refund within 7-10 business days.
