Whether you’re ten minutes from home or hours away, you only need to experience a flat tyre or flat battery to know the value of roadside assistance. Until your vehicle reaches 7 years of age, each time a standard service is completed by a participating Ford Dealer, you’ll receive State Auto Club Roadside Assistance and Membership1 for up to 12 months from the date of the service.

Now, that’s what service should be.

Flat tyre

The Auto Club will change a flat tyre (where vehicle has a serviceable spare) or, if necessary, a tow will be arranged.

Lockout

The Auto Club will assist where possible in opening your vehicle, locating and delivering your spare keys (where applicable), or arranging a tow, provided adequate proof of ownership can be shown.

Mechanical breakdown

Where applicable, a Service Patrol Vehicle will be dispatched to assist the mobilisation of your vehicle at the roadside.

Towing

In the event that a vehicle cannot be mobilised at the roadside, that vehicle will be towed to the nearest Ford Dealer or authorised Ford Service outlet.
