Podcast: Why EV Towing Is Changing Everything for Repair Shops
Nation Safe Drivers COO Jeff Wiener explains why the biggest challenge with electric vehicles isn't mechanical failure—and what that means for towing, repair shops, and customer service.
As more electric vehicles hit the road, they're reshaping more than repair procedures—they're changing how disabled vehicles reach your shop in the first place. Jeff Wiener, COO of Nation Safe Drivers, joins the podcast to explain why most EV roadside calls aren't caused by mechanical failures, why flatbed towing is becoming increasingly important, and how repair shops can prepare for a future where energy management, rather than broken parts, is driving roadside assistance.
