Roadside Assistance
On-the-go support, wherever you need it
Keeping you on the road
When you purchase a new Ford vehicle, you join the Auto Club Lifestyle Membership and receive national roadside assistance for 12 months after each service for up to 7 years. Whether you’re 10 minutes from home or an hour into a road trip, the Ford Roadside program has you covered.
What are the benefits?
Available to all Ford customers, including retail, fleet and government customers.
- Boost your battery
If you experience a flat auxiliary battery or need a jump-start, we can provide it under your roadside cover. Plus, if your auxiliary battery fails within 12 months of battery purchase, we’ll replace it at no cost.
- Top up fuel
If you get caught with an empty tank, Roadside Assistance will provide a top up to help you get to the nearest re-fuelling facility1. Fuel cost may be at the owner’s expense.
- Inflate flat tyres
In the case of a flat tyre, we’re here to pump them up. And if you have a spare, we can change your flat tyre on the spot. Or if necessary, we can organise a tow for you1.
- Non-collision breakdowns
Call 13 FORD for non-collision or non-insurance related breakdowns that have disabled your vehicle or made it unsafe to drive.
- Towed away
If your vehicle can’t be mobilised we’ll tow it to the nearest Ford Dealer1.
- Off road rescue
Where safe to do so, Roadside Assistance can help remove your bogged vehicle, as long as it’s accessible to a Patrol Service Vehicle1.
- We’ll tow your trailer
If your vehicle breaks down, a tow can be arranged for any caravan, trailer or horse floats attached to the vehicle1.
- Far from home
If your vehicle breaks down and cannot be repaired on the same day when more than 100km from home, accommodation, alternative transport and vehicle recovery are available to you1.
