If I have roadside assistance and I’m in the vehicle with another driver can I use my roadside assistance for tow truck if they don’t have roadside assistance
Hi Ty,
Thanks for getting in touch with finder.
The Geico towing insurance and roadside assistance policy covers the vehicle you specify on your application. It is not for any vehicle that you ride on or use. So, in your question, the answer would be no.
You may also want to read the terms and conditions of your cover to learn more.
I hope this helps. Should you have further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach us out again.
Have a wonderful day!
Cheers,
Joshua
Does Geico Roadside assistame cover pinching? If so what is covered for winching and what is not included? I know some Roadside assistance only covers 10 feet from the road and things like that. This is why I am asking. Thanks I’m currently stuck in the mud. Can I wait for the mud to dry, rain to dry up and drive right out?
Hi Dawn29,
Thanks for getting in touch with finder.
These are the things that Geico covers:
– Jump-starts for dead car batteries.
– Labor to change flat tires.
– Towing that’s not related to an accident.
As you can see, winching isn’t part of their cover. They also only provide roadside emergency assistance and might not be able to help you if in case you are stuck on an unpaved and rugged terrain. However, I would still advise you to directly get in touch with them to get a more personalised answer.
If you’re open to checking other options, please feel free to explore car insurance roadside assistance cover.
I hope this helps. Should you have further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach us out again.
Have a wonderful day!
Cheers,
Joshua
