Whoever drove the first tow truck a hundred years ago was actually the first person to provide emergency road services. Although probably primitive in nature, the concept of car problems happening on the run has lasted into the 21st century. Emergency road services are here to stay.
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.
Coverage for these plans usually cover an entire range of problems from running out of gas, fixing or replacing a tire, jumping a battery, or towing the car to a garage for further diagnostics and repairs. Not all plans cover everything, however, and most plans only provide really good coverage when you elect to purchase additional service options. In most cases these add ons are well worth the few extra dollars, and are typically the problems that occur on a regular basis.
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 pricing varies greatly. Don't make your decision simply based on the cost though. Decide what you need and go from there. Do plan on spending about $120 a year for decent coverage. And don't make the mistake of assuming a new car won't have any problems. Even brand new tires can blow and transmissions can malfunction.
