Roadside assistance is a service offered by garages, insurance companies and breakdown providers. It helps drivers who have broken down by either fixing the problem at the roadside or towing their vehicle to a nearby mechanic. Roadside assistance can help with many issues including:

  • • Flat or punctured tyres

  • • A dead battery 

  • • Running out of fuel

Roadside assistance is included in breakdown cover, but it can also be a separate service booked directly through a garage. Breakdown cover includes a range of services designed to help motorists who break down and is usually paid for monthly or annually.

However, if you have already broken down and need roadside assistance you will need to book the service from a reputable garage nearby. Approved Garages makes it simple to find trusted mechanics in your local area.

Roadside recovery is needed when your vehicle breaks down and can not be repaired on the roadside. This means the vehicle will need to be towed to a nearby garage which can carry out the repairs. At Approved Garages, we make it easy to find garages offering roadside recovery services that will be able to handle the recovery and repair of your vehicle, whatever the problem. 

Some roadside assistance providers will also drive you and any passengers you have home. However, the number of passengers that can be taken and the distance will depend on the roadside assistance provider you have chosen. 

If your car has broken down and can’t be fixed at the roadside, you’ll need a car recovery service from a local garage. Book with one of our car recovery garages now for a quote. There may be a call-out fee, towing fee and a mileage fee. 

Roadside repairs are performed on a vehicle that has broken down on the side of the road. The aim is to get the vehicle operational again so the driver can continue their journey. Common roadside repairs include:

 

  • • Replacing fuel if the vehicle has run out.

  • • Replacing flat or punctured tyres.

  • • Jumpstarting or replacing a dead car battery. 

  • • Changing the wiper blades.
