ALPS Breakdown Cover

ALPS breakdown cover takes care of you and your vehicle if you break down – and because it covers the vehicle, it won’t matter who’s driving as long as they’re a named driver on your policy.

COVER OPTIONS AVAILABLE

Roadside assistance & local recovery: A trained mechanic will come out to the site of the breakdown to get you back on the road

Nationwide recovery: Recovery of your vehicle and passengers to any single destination within policy limits

Homestart: If your vehicle breaks down within 1 mile of your home ALPS will arrange for a breakdown vehicle to come to where you are

Mis-fuelling cover: If you put the wrong fuel in your car, ALPS will arrange and pay for your vehicle to be drained and flushed of the contaminated fuel, and refuelled with up to 10 litres of the correct fuel.

WHAT COUNTS AS A BREAKDOWN?

Not being able to use the vehicle due to:

  • Flat battery
  • Vandalism
  • An accident
  • Fire
  • Theft or an attempted theft
  • Lack of fuel
  • Flat tyres

TRAILERS & CARAVANS

If the vehicle you’re in breaks down while you’re towing a caravan or trailer, ALPS will recover the vehicle & the caravan or trailer, if the caravan or trailer is no more than 8.5 metres long, 3 metres high and 2.3 metres wide.
