Standard Roadside Assistance

Flat Battery

If you find yourself immobilised with a battery problem, we will attend to your vehicle, test the battery for performance, jump start the flat battery or coordinate a battery replacement if required. The cost of the replacement battery will be charged to you.

Where a jump start is not possible, we will tow the vehicle to the nearest authorised repairer. Towing is provided up to up to 20 kilometres from the breakdown location in a capital city or major rural town, and 60 kilometres in a rural area.

Limits apply. Refer to Terms & Conditions.

Emergency Fuel

If your vehicle runs out of fuel, we will deliver sufficient petrol or diesel (to a maximum of 5 litres) for the vehicle to travel to the nearest available refueling facility.

In the case of LPG fuelled vehicles, we will tow the vehicle to the nearest re-fuelling facility (subject to towing limits). In the event that wrong fuel is added to the vehicle, towing to the nearest authorised repairer will be coordinated at your cost.

Limits apply. Refer to Terms & Conditions.

Flat tyres

If you find yourself with a flat tyre, we will change it with the vehicle’s serviceable spare wheel. If your vehicle is not equipped with a spare wheel, we will transport the vehicle to an approved tyre outlet or authorised repairer, whichever is the nearest (subject to the towing/transportation limits). Should additional services be required beyond this due to multiple flat tyres, the spare tyre being unserviceable, replacement wheel studs/nuts not being available or locking wheel nut key not available, towing is provided at your cost.

Limits apply. Refer to Terms & Conditions.

Lost or Locked Keys

If you lose your keys or lock them in your vehicle, we will provide all reasonable assistance (subject to proof of ownership shown) to:

  • locate and deliver a spare key, or
  • arrange for the driver to retrieve the spare key, if this is more practical, or
  • gain access to your vehicle (once a consent and indemnity form has been signed by you).

In all other situations where the key is not available, we will arrange to transport the vehicle to an authorised repairer, where the appropriate entry methods may be used. We will not be responsible for any damage incurred, or for any repair costs that result from gaining access to the vehicle or moving the vehicle while it is locked. An expense limit of $150 (including GST) applies to this benefit. All additional costs are your responsibility.

Limits apply. Refer to Terms & Conditions.

Vehicle Towing/Transportation

If your vehicle cannot be mobilised at the breakdown location, we will deliver your vehicle to the nearest authorised repairer to the breakdown location.

Towing is provided up to 20 kilometres from the breakdown location in a capital city or major rural town, and 60 kilometres in a rural area. Please note that all additional towing costs are your responsibility.
