Ken's Towing and Tire Service in
Baker (CA)

Professionals in their field! Cheap and fast!!! Great guys, I recommend them to everyone.

We broke down deep in the Mojave National Preserve, and Ken’s Towing & Tire came through when we were in quite a predicament. Gonzalas was our tow truck driver, and he was absolutely incredible. He handled the car with great care and professionalism, then drove us and the car safely back to Palm Springs before making the long drive home himself. That level of dedication is rare and deserves recognition. Gonzalas was friendly, accommodating, and reassuring throughout the entire process. In a stressful situation, he made everything feel way more manageable. I also want to give huge credit to the dispatcher we worked with. When we were stranded with almost no cell service, the dispatcher was one of the only people we could reach who was local. They were patient, helpful, and kept communication going until help arrived. If you ever need towing in this region, Ken’s Towing & Tire is the team you want on your side. Exceptional service, genuine care, and a willingness to go the extra mile ... literally!

Another dumb tourist who got stuck in the sand over here! Lol. Luis and his partner were very nice and helpful and pulled my car out. I was about 2 miles off the road trying to run my dogs safely and underestimated how much the rain had softened the ground. They arrived pretty promptly considering I was in the middle of nowhere and got the car out pretty quickly. Very personable. A little expensive but I don’t know average prices for this and it was worth the price in my opinion.

Excellent service from start to finish. The dispatcher was clear and professional, and the tow truck driver handled everything smoothly. Prices were fair and transparent. Definitely recommend if you ever need a tow!

Posting for my sister! We were outside of Yermo, Ca with a flat on our 5th RV. My husband changed the tire but we needed to fix or replace the flat tire. We made it to Baker,Ca and went to 3 tire shops and no one could fix the spare tire. We finally found Ken’s towing and repair shop. It was very clean and the men working were very professional. They fixed the tire, rotated, and balanced the tire very quickly so we could get on the road. We were very grateful and thankful for the honest people working at Ken’s Towing and Repairs.

Wonderful experience with with Gonzalez at Ken's. We were in need of a tire early in the morning. He showed up in less than 20 min. I was blown away by how fast he fixed our tire and then checked our other tires air pressure to make sure we would make it safely to LA. Thank you so much.

We got stuck in the sand at Dumont Dunes, Mojave Desert (silly tourist mistake of under-estimating the depth of sand) and the girl at the phone and the guys coming to get us were amazing. They were super helpful at locating us, finding us and rescuing us. We had fun through the whole experience thanks to their calming, helpful attitude and sense of humor. Worth every penny! Was not expensive at all. Wish they took us to the fun ride to the dunes after our rescue 🤣 That looked like even more fun we had there while waiting for them (and we did make the most of our time there 😄) If you ever get stuck in the dunes, just call them and enjoy your time! You are in the best hands!

Heading to Vegas and ran over a sheet metal bolt. Tire started leaking a lot. Out of the 3 shops doing tires in the area, this place was the only one who could plug the tire hole, and they did it immediately!! So grateful!

Mario went above and beyond for me when I was stuck at a rest stop for 3 days with my dog and my truck and trailer. I needed to be towed 62 miles. It was over my 25 miles alotted for a tow. Kens towing was $200 less then the other tow company.

We called to Juan for coolant leak on our semi truck he sent julio right way to shop Sunday early morning and get back us road with in 2 hours. Highly recommend

Gonzalez was amazing! Super helpful and honest, he gave us a great deal and got our car fixed quickly, saving us from major issues on our road trip to Vegas. Can’t thank him enough for the help. Highly recommend!

Fast service! Gonzalez was a great and efficient driver, got us to our repair place in Vegas quickly and helped drive the dead car on and off the tow truck. Thank you for helping us out of a sticky situation!

Those guys are super awesome. Luis was so kind to check all my ties for air when my light came on so I was good to finish my drive to LA.!!!

In the middle of the night, I contacted their roadside assistance service for assistance. My truck had a breakdown, necessitating the replacement of the fan belt. The mechanic performed a satisfactory job, and I highly recommend their services.

While traveling from Las Vegas to the Bakersfield, CA area, our rental car got a flat. Thankfully, Ken's towing was right off the exit. They had technically closed at 5pm, but at 5:15, they still answered the phone and worked with our roadside assistance to get our tire changed and us back on the road. Had it not been for Ken's towing, our vacation would have been ruined!

Car overheated in Death Valley, Ken’s Towing service brought me back home so fast! Luis was the best and had good stories on the ride back. 10/10 !

My full sized truck broke down towing through Death Valley and aaa was having a hard time locating a company that would assist me. Kens towing was willing to work with aaa and once they were authorized by aaa provided quick and professional service. My driver Gonzales didn’t waste any time and got me home safely and efficiently. Thank you Ken’s.

Gonzalez was very communicative with me during the entire process of helping me get back on the road. Got a flat tire on the freeway and needed to replace 2 front tires. Service was fast and professional.

Ken’s towing was wonderful. We broke down in baker pulling a 5th wheel. My husband called and they had a truck to us in about 30 mins that was able to take us all the way to Vegas. Their driver was super helpful and I was extremely impressed with his driving. He was so aware of everything on the road and constantly watching everywhere. We were a huge vehicle with everything all hooked up. They were also way less expensive than other tow companies.

We had a tire blow out on the 15 in Death Valley on the way to Vegas. It was 118 degrees in the desert. Gonzales picked us up and brought us waters and towed us to Baker. Very nice, super professional, and quick. Good service!

Let me tell you about the ANGELS that saved my life tonight! Ken’s Towing did! If I could give then 100 stars I would!!! So apparently these new electric cars will show you that there is a certain amount of gas in your vehicle and there is not, but it’s my fault— I ran out of gas in an area that doesn’t have gas for about 60 miles. I called my insurance company hysterically and they were going to arrange a towing company to bring me some gas. They called me back about 45 minutes later saying no one will come out to where I was because it was in the middle of nowhere, I’m on my own. My husband had contacted this towing company from Mississippi. I was broke down in between Ludlow and Needles California. Ken’s towing was an hour and a half away from me and she said absolutely no problem and these people came out in the middle of the night in the middle of nowhere to give me some gas when no one else would! Then since my car is electric, it was going crazy because apparently you can’t let electric cars gas go empty. This man stayed with me and charged my vehicle until it got running (it took over 30 min, prob more) and then followed me to a gas station and made sure it still started after I got gas so that I could get to a charging station so I wouldn’t mess up my vehicle! Long story short I owe these people my life and they were absolutely angels looking over me tonight! Thank you so much to the dispatcher and man who came to rescue me!

My husband was stuck on the side of the freeway. A family member referred him to contact Ken's Towing, as our roadside assistance could not locate a flatbed to send out to him. Upon calling Ken's Towing, within an hour Raul (driver) arrived and had his vehicle on their flatbed. My husband was 45 mins away from their location. Raul was professional, courteous, and friendly. He drove safely and within the speed limit. If I or my husband need towing assistance (again), we will call Ken's Towing. Thank you Ken's Towing and Raul!

On the way from Yermo, had a little tire leak so we called this place, they'd locked up for the day but they came on over and put a plug in within 10 mins:) very helpful! Only $30.

Thanks to the guys at Ken’s Tire, we are on our way in no time. They are located next to Chevron so you can grab a drink and go to the bathroom during your short wait. Rodriguez was very nice and helpful.

Popped a tire in the middle of a 10 hour car trip at 10pm. Saw Ken’s towing sign on the side of the road and pulled in. Called the number on the door and someone came in to help us so late at night and gave a great price, about $200 cheaper than other companies were offering. Great service! Thank you for helping us!

Got a nail in my tire on the way to Death Valley/Vegas March 2021. TPS lit up 7 miles away from Baker on the 15 North. Ken towing only tire shop in town patches a flat. Oscar was very helpful. Patch tire and check all tire pressure. Also Ken's shop provides 24 tire service. Need to call after hours and tech will come out to the shop There is a convenience store next door with indoor tables/chairs. Kids got cold drinks/ice cream. Repair was about an hour.

Great people at Ken's is an understatement these people are truly understanding and empathetic. They dropped what they where doing to help, not to mention the discount. They extracted 2 of my vehicles.
