About Roadside Assistance
Roadside assistance as part of MBI cover means you're never truly stranded in New Zealand. This benefit typically includes 24/7 emergency callout anywhere in NZ, towing to the nearest approved repairer, on-site assistance for flat tyres, battery jumpstarts, fuel delivery if you run out, vehicle lockout assistance, and temporary windscreen repairs. Many MBI policies with roadside assistance also include accommodation cover if you break down more than 100km from home, as well as return travel expenses. Roadside assistance is often available as a standalone add-on to your existing MBI policy or included as standard in comprehensive cover. In New Zealand's remote areas and on long highway journeys, having roadside support can be the difference between a minor inconvenience and a very expensive, stressful situation.
