AMI has launched a new Roadside Rescue service which will be available for all New Zealanders, anywhere around the country, regardless of whether they are insured with AMI.
“We are thrilled to introduce new simplified AMI Roadside Rescue subscriptions, designed with all New Zealand drivers in mind,” says AMI Executive General Manager Supply Chain and Hub Services, Dean MacGregor.
“Customers can call us for assistance for any vehicle, and any driver can call for the nominated vehicle. For $79 per year, drivers will get unlimited nationwide callouts, 24/7, with on-towed trailers, boats or caravans also covered.
“A discounted annual rate of $49 will be available for new and existing AMI customers also,” adds Mr MacGregor.
AMI says its Roadside Rescue service, previously exclusive to AMI, State and NZI customers, provided assistance to more than 42,000 drivers over the last 12 months.
“It has never been such an important time to extend our service to all New Zealanders.”
“Battery issues result in around 47% of all AMI Roadside Rescue callouts, followed by mechanical issues (21%), damaged tyres (12%), and keys being locked in the car or malfunctioning (6%).”
AMI’s Roadside Rescue data also shows that callouts commonly occur on Mondays, particularly during the early afternoon.
