Mexican Roadside Assistance

4 Reasons You Should Have Roadside Assistance Coverage in Mexico


Planning to drive to Nogales, Matamoros, or Ensenada? As you may already know, you need to have Mexican car insurance in order to drive your vehicle in Mexico legally. Unfortunately, a lot of drivers try to save money on their insurance by opting for the lowest amount of coverage possible, thinking that they aren’t likely to need full coverage for a short trip. However, adding roadside assistance to your policy is often a good idea in terms of safety. If your vehicle breaks down or simply suffers a flat tire, it’s good to know that you have access to help. If you’re planning to take that over-the-border road trip, here are some reasons you should have roadside assistance coverage.

1) Towing

If your car breaks down on a Mexican highway, you’ll need a tow truck to haul it to a repair shop. When you have roadside assistance, you don’t have to try to find a reputable tow truck company. Depending on the needs, in most cases, the driver can figure out what’s wrong and get you back up and running.

If your car or truck breaks down during your Mexican getaway and you have roadside assistance, you can get immediate advice about where to have it repaired. We can provide you with information about the most reputable repair shops in your vicinity. If you’re on a toll road, of course, the Green Angels might just stop and help.

2) Flat Tire Change

When you’re traveling on your own and get a flat tire, it’s best to call a service to make the tire change for you. Just call for roadside assistance and you can get immediate help–free of charge–with your tire change.

3) It’s Affordable and in some cases – FREE

The costs of a tow truck, repair company, and rental vehicle can add up quickly. When you have roadside assistance, you pay a low additional charge to your premium for convenient protection. And at some brokers, like MexInsurance.com, it’s included with all policies…FOR FREE


4) Peace of Mind

You may never need roadside assistance when you’re traveling in Mexico. But, if you do, it’s nice to know that your Mexican insurance policy includes this helpful feature. Getting the timely assistance you need on the roadway is important in terms of safety and security. Make sure you have cell phone coverage where you are going in Mexico and a coverage plan!

Discuss your Mexico insurance needs with us and let us tell you more about our roadside assistance coverage. Personally, we wouldn’t drive to Mexico without it!
