What Is Covered Under AAA Roadside Assistance?
When you become a AAA member, you gain access to our network of emergency vehicles and free roadside assistance. Plus, your membership travels with you, not your vehicle. So, when you’re driving a friend’s car or riding with a family member, AAA will service any event under your membership.
Our experts provide more than roadside assistance by rendering additional advantages, such as:
- AAA travel
- Battery service
- Discounts and rewards
- Emergency fuel delivery
- Financial services
- Life, pet and home insurance
- Lockout help
- Notary services
- PennDOT support
- Tire assist
AAA offers travel packages that save you time and money to cut the challenges of planning a vacation. If you need battery services, we will come to your location and test the unit to see if it needs replacing. If you have a dead battery on your hands, we can reinstall a new one on the spot to keep you moving.
As a member, you can also collect special discounts at hotel chains, restaurants and stores when you present your AAA membership card. AAA emergency fuel delivery gets you to the nearest gas station when you’ve run low, and we also help during lockout situations. AAA will send a technician or locksmith to help access your vehicle with ease.
In the case of a tire blowout, you should pull to the side of the road, if possible. Contact AAA as soon as possible, so we can tow you home or to another preferred location, such as a mechanic. We can also install a spare or inflate the tire if no damage is done and your car can still drive.
AAA Roadside Assistance supports you on almost every level, whether you require new rubber or need help retrieving your keys. You can trust us to assist you whenever and wherever you find yourself.
When you demand 24/7 assistance, you can call our AAA Roadside Assistance number, go online or request help through our mobile app.
How Far Will AAA Tow My Car for Free?
AAA prides itself on offering you various membership levels to accommodate your different needs. Each tier delivers basic forms of support with additional features as your membership level increases. The type of membership you select will dictate how far our trucks can tow you at no charge. For example:
- AAA Classic:5 miles
- AAA Plus:100 miles
- AAA Premier:One tow up to 200 miles and three tows up to 100 miles
Our towing services will cover you in both the United States and Canada. You have up to four roadside assistance service calls per year, as well as free tires changes.
While our services are intended for roadside assistance, we extend our support by helping you get to where you need — whether it be home or a repair shop.
The Classic membership’s towing mileage is great if you’re close to a mechanic who can start repairing your vehicle’s tires or its other issues. If you choose the AAA Plus membership, we can tow your inoperable vehicle up to 100 miles. The service and distance are especially convenient if you don’t want to transport a classic car without racking up its miles.
Finally, the Premier option is where you get the most out of your towing mileage. You can rely on AAA to tow you up to 200 miles, which is ideal if you’re broken down far from home or you’re moving. Once you use the initial 200-mile trip, you can rely on our three other 100-mile towing service calls.
