Yesterday my car broken down due the clutch slave failure it would not move when depress the clutch pedal.
RAC arrived 3 hours later said sorry it can not be fix on side of road. So he towed my car to home 9 miles and he attach a spring pole into hole like a hook screw to the front bumper of my Punto.
After 4 miles up the hill my tow hook rip off my chassis! it wreck the bumper as well.:bang:
The RAC has apologize to me, he will fill me a claim for the damage once is finish send them the bill of cost, he said that the tow hook should not have happen like this. Had to wait another 2 hours for lorry to load my car on ramp.
I did not have a wonderful day yesterday, I was curious if the tow hook are design to tow the car??? or is temporary tow on lorry ramp? my look a bit rusty near the tow hook.
Now I am look to have a replace the front bumper, also I do not know if is worth to welding the hook attach hole? would this make more weak than the before?
Next time if RAC is tow me where would it be more safe position?
