Ever since the first Model T was driven home, there has been a form of emergency road services in existence to help the stranded driver. Nowadays these services have been upgraded to include things that no one would have even considered a hundred years ago.
Anyone who has purchased a new car over the past few years has probably been told the car is covered with some type of emergency services for the length of the original warranty. This might sound like a great sales pitch, but most of this coverage is already provided under the warranty. The only things you'll probably use are services to fix a flat or jump a battery.
Most emergency road services cover all types of problems from running out of gas to fixing a flat tire. There are many optional services available when you choose your plan and your service provider and of course the more options you choose, the pricier your plan. Some of the options are almost mandatory if you want to get your money's worth out of the annual membership, however. Options such as free battery charges, and free fluid top offs when they service your car for other reasons are certainly worth the few extra dollars you would pay.
One of these valuable options is being able to have your car towed wherever you want, usually with a 50 mile limit. This is a great option if you break down far from home and you don't want your car taken to a garage you don't know or don't trust. Most tow trucks are perfectly happy to follow your directions and even drive you home.
Also make sure that you are what's covered - not just the car! This might sound strange, but your real goal is to make sure you are safe on the road and can get help when you need it. In other words, if you need to borrow your mother's car and it breaks down, make sure the service provider will still come out to help you.
This type of coverage is a bit more costly but well worth the few extra dollars. You don't want to find out at the worst possible time that you aren't covered for whatever is happening.
Annual costs can start around $60, but don't base your decision on the cheapest Towing North York you can find. You could be wasting your money. Get coverage based on your real needs. Where do you live? Does it go below freezing? Plan on a dead battery. Is it over 90F most of the year? Plan on over heating. These aren't always covered with your basic plans. Do you take your SUV to the beach? The woods? Something is bound to happen! Or even worse, did your car come without a spare? Make sure you have a plan where you can actually buy a tire on the road if necessary, from your service provider. They'll send it out with the service truck and have it put on.
Car and Truck Auctions planning starts as low as $60 a year but this usually covers only basic problems. Don't select your coverage based only on the cost of the plan, though. Choose coverages that you are most likely to need and add options that make sense. Do you live in an area with freezing winter temperatures? You'll definitely have frequent battery problems - make sure they'll be taken care of. Do you have an SUV that you take off roading? Get that covered, too. Do you drive a brand new car? Things can still happen. Be prepared
