National Roadside Assurance® provides emergency roadside assistance nationwide
through independent contractors for the convenience of its members.
If you need emergency roadside assistance anywhere in the continental U.S.,
Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and Canada, simply call the toll free number listed
on your membership card. This number can be reached 24 hours a day, 7 days a
week. We will arrange to dispatch a service truck to you while you are on the
phone.
When you call for dispatch service, be prepared to give the customer service
representative the following:
- Name and membership number.
- Exact location of the vehicle if known (street address, mile markers, etc.)
- Nature of the trouble (flat tire, won’t start, etc.)
- Phone number from where you are calling.
We will contact the nearest participating towing facility and then tell you
the estimated time of arrival. In some areas there may not be an available contractor.
In this case, National Roadside Assurance® will issue you an authorization
number, and you will have to contact a facility and we will reimburse you up
to $80. The authorization number is required to be eligible for reimbursement.
Most service providers require you or another authorized person to be with
the vehicle in order to receive service (unless it is unsafe to do so).
Please cancel your request for service within 5 minutes of the time you called
if it is no longer needed by calling us back at the toll free number listed
on your membership card.
When the service truck arrives, present your membership card. The service provider
may ask for your driver’s license for additional identification.
After service is complete, verify the information on the call slip provided
by the service provider and sign it. National Roadside Assurance® will pay
the service facility directly for covered dispatch charges. You will be responsible
for paying the service facility for any charges not covered.
We have made every effort to ensure that National Roadside Assurance® Emergency
Roadside Assistance can function under all conditions. However, during extreme
weather conditions, there may be some delay before help can reach you. When
such situations exist, we ask you to please be patient. Of course, in some areas
there may not be an available contractor. In this case, once National Roadside
Assurance® has issued you an authorization number, you will need to contact
a facility and we will reimburse you up to $80 (See Roadside Assistance Reimbursement,
page 21 of the membership guide).
National Roadside Assurance® will not accept responsibility for repair
or the availability, delivery or installation of parts. All parts used and services
provided to you by the contractor must be authorized and paid for by you.
Important
Since all Authorized Service Providers are independent contractors and not agents
or employees of National Roadside Assurance® or Signature’s Nationwide
Auto Club, National Roadside Assurance® can assume no liability for any
damage to your vehicle resulting from the rendering of service or for personal
items left in the vehicle. Any claims for personal injury or damage to the property
of a member must be filed against the servicing facility.
