What's classed as a breakdown?

Your vehicle can breakdown for several reasons, such as:

Mechanical or electrical failure / Breakages
Flat Batteries
Punctures
Out of fuel
Contaminated or wrong fuel
Ignition Keys lost, stolen or locked in your vehicle
Damage caused by accident, vandalism theft or attempted theft which renders the vehicle immobile.

What's not covered under breakdown insurance?

Recovery during the first 48 hours after purchase (Gold only)
The costs of any parts, components or materials used to repair the vehicle.
Any request for service if the vehicle cannot be reached due to snow, mud, sand, flood or being off road.
More than 6 call outs per year (Bronze) or no more than £3,500 (Gold only).
Vehicles over 16 years old (Gold only).
Any costs for any service which is not arranged or agreed by the Breakdown Control Centre and/or Complaints/Quality team.

Do I need breakdown cover?

Breakdown cover is not a legal requirement, unlike car insurance. It is, nonetheless, worth considering because it can make breaking down less stressful and costly.

If you frequently travel long distances or to remote locations, drive an older vehicle, or are concerned about hefty call-out fees, it may be worthwhile to purchase breakdown insurance.
