Breakdown recovery refers to the service provided by roadside assistance companies to help drivers whose vehicles have broken down on the road. The service typically involves sending a technician to the location of the vehicle to either fix it on the spot or tow it to a nearby garage for repairs.
Common reasons for vehicle breakdowns include flat or damaged tires, battery problems, engine or transmission issues, electrical problems, and running out of fuel.
You can request breakdown recovery by contacting your roadside assistance provider. This can usually be done by phone, through a mobile app, or via the provider’s website.
