How Your Roadside Assistance Cost Is Calculated

Newer vehicles (2020+) typically have lower failure rates but may require specialized service. Older vehicles (pre-2010) may need more frequent assistance due to wear and tear.
Vehicle Type
Larger vehicles like trucks and SUVs often incur higher towing costs. Electric vehicles may require specialized equipment and technicians.
Annual Mileage
Higher mileage increases wear on vehicle components and the likelihood of requiring roadside assistance. Vehicles driven over 15,000 miles annually typically see a 15-25% cost increase.
