Roadside assistance and motorhome-specific towing can be problematic for drivers who do not have appropriate auto club memberships. Auto clubs do render assistance should a motor vehicle break down, but not all auto clubs offer dedicated roadside-recovery services for all RVs, motorhomes, travel trailers and fifth wheels.

Primary Benefits of Roadside Assistance

One of the main benefits of roadside recovery offered by auto clubs is assistance when safety is a concern. Drivers who break down in remote areas, for example, may be stranded when the temperature is rising, or they could be locked out of the motor vehicle when it's snowing and the weather is turning dangerous. Having an auto-club membership is enough to ensure drivers receive aid in less than 60 minutes.

In addition to safety, another major concern for drivers should be the convenience of service offered by a roadside-recovery auto-club membership. Does your auto club offer unlimited distance towing? Does it offer roadside recovery in Canada and Mexico? Will the auto club offer trip-interruption reimbursement in the event that a vacation has to be cut short as a result of a breakdown? Drivers should also consider services like discounts on associated products, such as free transmission check-ups, discounts on RV/auto parts, even car rentals and hotel stays.
