What does roadside assistance cover?

  • Breakdowns and towing: If your car breaks down, roadside assistance can carry out quick repairs where possible or arrange towing for more serious issues.
  • Dead battery: Left your lights on and now your battery’s flat? A roadside team can jump-start your car and get you moving again.
  • Lost or locked keys: Locked yourself out or misplaced your keys? Many roadside assistance services include locksmith support.
  • Out of fuel: Run out of fuel unexpectedly? Help is available to deliver enough petrol or diesel to get you to the nearest station.
  • Flat tyre: Whether you’ve got no spare or need help changing a tyre, roadside assistance can get the job done.

Every provider is different and what’s included will vary based on your own subscription. To get an idea of limits that apply, check with your provider or use our table above.
