Thornton's Auto Repair located at 11240 Jefferson Ave
Newport News, VA 23601 is conducting predatory towing tactics. They towed my daughter's car from a parking lot that was only established as a ""Tow Zone"" 72 hours earlier and on a Sunday. After learning her car was towed, she went to pick up her car within 3 hours of being towed and had to wait 3 days to get it back. Vic Thornton and the boys at Thornton's advised her of Thornton's New Towing Policy - only registered owners can get a vehicle out, even if their official Virginia State Drivers License matches the car's registration. It took 3 days to get the vehicle out of Thornton's, costing over $200. If you get towed by Thornton's in Newport News, watch out. They will milk you for every dime to make a buck. They prey on college students, active military and their dependents.
