first call to the AA was at 11:00 this morning because my car was over heating, I was about 25 miles from home. I was told someone would be with me in about 60 to 90 minutes... than at 90 minutes i receive a phone call to say some from a local garage will be with me in 30 minutes. Finally about 14:30 a person from On Time turns up to check my car, he tells me there nothing wrong with it just needed water. I explain that the water and oil were checked two days ago and they were both fine. But he just topped it up with water and told me there was a air lock, I drive off less the 3 miles later I am at the traffic light when my car over heats again but this I have smoke coming from the engine and the engine light comes on. I pulled over and phoned the AA again, was told again 60 to 90 minutes but had to wait for over two hours again. This time I get a real AA man, who does lots of different check, he tells me it could be a few different things but I cannot drive the car and he made arrangements for me to be towed home...by this time I just sit in my car and cry, Off he goes and I am left waiting again, I receive another call to say someone would be with me within 30 minutes but I had to wait another two hours until the next AA man turns up to tow me. I finally got home at 20:30. Is NINE and HALF HOUR the longest time anyone had to wait for the AA?
