How many times can I use my roadside assistance?
I need to get to an Autozone so that my car can be fixed. The problem is, it won't start, so I need my car to be towed.

I’m sorry to hear that your car won’t start; I know that can be frustrating. Luckily, there is technically no limit to how many times you can use your
roadside assistance
. If you need help, your roadside assistance will provide it.The limitation you might be thinking of comes into play when deciding the cost of your service. This varies depending on the roadside assistance service you have.
Most companies will typically allow each driver on your policy somewhere around four service calls per year without charge. Once those four have been used, drivers will be charged a member rate for any additional service calls. This rate is determined by your roadside assistance company, based on the services provided.
If you’ve used up all of your service calls, you may find yourself having to shell out the cash to pay for a tow, which can get pretty pricey. If you’re looking to find some extra cash, the
