If you have breakdown cover and your car fails, all you have to do is call the number of your cover provider and give them information about your policy and location. They will attempt to repair the vehicle at the roadside; failing that, they will tow your car to a garage.
Even if you don't have breakdown cover, you can still call a breakdown recovery provider, though this is likely to cost more since you don't have an existing policy.
Instead of trying to purchase regular breakdown cover after you have broken down, make sure you contact your chosen breakdown provider using the non-customer helpline. Read this guide for more information about what to do when your car breaks down.
Alternatively, a local garage will often offer the cheapest breakdown recovery call-out fee. Choosing the right roadside recovery option is essential, especially if your car has broken down somewhere dangerous, such as on the motorway.
