AAA road side service.

Is it any good. Anyone used it

Very good. I've had it 8 years.
One time , the gear shift on my old car broke. Luckily I was in a parking lot. AAA came. I explained my issue. He told me he was also a mechanic, so he could reach under my hood and physically put my car in drive so that I could drive home (which saved me a tow).

I've had a blowout on the way to class, sitting onside the highway. AAA came and towed me to the tire shop.

One time I got a call from my dad who was having car issues. He wanted me to come get him because HIS insurance folks were taking too long to get his car.
I called AAA and they came within a few minutes.
(usually it does take a little while, but they had just left a call literally around the corner).

I like having it because it gives me peace of mind being a single female, to know that if my car breaks down in the middle of nowhere, I know who I can call to back on the road.

They also have promotional deals sometimes where you can add a family member for free for a few months. I just added my mom
I never used it before. I think I talked to someone several years ago who did have it, and they said when their car broke down, they were able to get a tow called through AAA road side service, but it took an unreasonable amount of time for the tow truck to come.

If I broke down on the road, I'd probably be calling my dad, or look up a number for a tow, but I don't carry cash so I think if you call a tow, you need cash then and there. AAA road side service I would think is paid for by your insurance company.

We've had it in the past and it came in handy a few times. Plus we got discounted hotel stays some times.

Isn't that the one that gets you home when you are drunk??? 🤔🤔🤔

Totally worth it IMHO. They have helped me many times over the years.

We used CAA three times in 2023. It is well worth the cost

Not recently, so I don't know!

I have used it many times. They basically just call a tow truck for you. Yearly cost is less than the cost of a tow out of pocket, so I re-up every year and am about to soon.

Yes, it has helped me many times.
