Does anybody happen to know if there is any recourse when a towing company does damage to your coach while towing.

When I lost my rear wheel I called Good Sam and told them I needed a roll back. They said that they would send one but when the wrecker showed up it was a standard wrecker. The tow operator told me that the GMC wouldn't fit on a roll back and, besides, there is no problem with lifting the rear end and doing a standard tow. I specifically asked about the advisability of towing the GMC from the rear because of possible damage to the transmission and was told it would not be a problem.

Turns out when I picked up the coach from Grandview Motorhomes that there is no low range, almost no mid range and noise in both neutral and park. I didn't realize these problems until I got home and found that I could not climb the hill to my shop.

I'm obviously pissed an Good Sam, and the towing company but my question is is there any recourse at this point?
