My Ford has broken down, what shall I do next?
Please call the emergency number given on the decal. Remember to give your exact location, the vehicle registration number or VIN number, contact details, a description of the problem and your home address, so that the staff can coordinate assistance efficiently for you.
Do I have to pay for replacement parts?
Yes, replacement parts and any workshop labour costs are your responsibility, unless they are covered under the manufacturer’s warranty. Terms and conditions apply.
How long will I have to wait before the team comes to my aid?
We understand the frustration and anxiety experienced in the event of a breakdown, and our aim is to ensure that any inconvenience is kept to a minimum. Therefore, when you call, our fully-trained staff will immediately arrange for the nearest and most appropriate service provider to assist you. The waiting time will depend on the availability of the assistance provider, your breakdown location, weather conditions and traffic. During the course of your wait, we will maintain contact with you and provide updates on the estimated time of arrival of the service provider.
Do I have to be with my Ford to receive service arranged by the 24-hour roadside assistance team?
Yes, you must be present at the breakdown location in order for assistance services to be rendered to your Ford. In the event of a recovery, you are required to sign a towing receipt before your Ford can be recovered to the designated Ford Service Centre. Please ensure that you remove all belongings from your Ford prior to recovery. We are not responsible for any loss or damage to personal belongings left in the vehicle.

In order to obtain the highest level of service, all arrangements must be made by us. We have an appointed network of service providers to provide the services as described in this policy.
