FYI, AAA will not tow vehicles with modified suspensions.

And they are going to know this how?
Just by saying your car looks lower and refusing? Or they going to shine a flashlight in there and look for stuff that doesn't "look" stock?
Sounds more like a bunch of talk with no real way to enforce it

I wonder if it says something in the terms of service? What specifcally?
I can see if they might require some specific clearances...but how can they reject a suspension out of hand just because it's modified. There must be something in the terms of service...
Wonder if they'd reject towing my Touareg because it is a "modifiable" suspension. In other words, I can adjust my air suspension settings on command. I guess they might require me to "lock" the suspension - like I do when I go in for alignments or tire service.
A few months ago I replaced both the front and rear sway bars...hopefully the Tow Truck Technician (TTT) won't spot that suspension modification.

I was told when I <almost> wrecked my car that they couldn't promise there
would be no damage, but the driver was <i>very</i> careful and didn't do anything without conferring with me.
Of course this is anecdotal... but I doubt many drivers are going to be following that kind of policy too strictly.
AAA has its own fleet? I thought they just contracted out to local companies.
