COMMON ROADSIDE PROBLEMS
What Can BZ Recovery Help With at the Roadside?
Not every breakdown needs a recovery truck. Many common problems can first be assessed at the roadside, helping you avoid an unnecessary vehicle recovery where the issue can be resolved safely.
Flat Battery & Jump Starts
If your car or van will not start because of a flat or discharged battery, we can provide roadside battery assistance and a jump start where suitable.
If the battery or charging system has another problem and the vehicle cannot continue reliably, recovery can be arranged.
Battery Assistance & Replacement
Where a suitable replacement battery can be supplied and fitted, battery replacement may be available depending on the vehicle, battery specification and current availability.
Vehicle-specific battery requirements are checked before replacement is confirmed.
Punctures & Wheel Changes
If you have a flat tyre and a suitable spare wheel or manufacturer-approved alternative is available, we can help with a roadside wheel change where conditions allow.
If the wheel, tyre or vehicle damage prevents a safe roadside solution, we can recover the vehicle instead.
Emergency Fuel Delivery
Run out of fuel? We can assist with emergency fuel delivery in suitable roadside situations to help get you moving again.
Tell us the vehicle, fuel type and your exact location when calling.
Wrong Fuel & Misfuelling
Put the wrong fuel in your vehicle? Contact us before continuing to drive or repeatedly attempting to start the engine.
We can assess the situation and arrange appropriate roadside assistance or vehicle recovery depending on what has happened.
Vehicle Lockouts
Locked your keys inside the vehicle or unable to access the car? Roadside lockout assistance can be assessed depending on the vehicle and situation.
More complex key or security-system faults may require a specialist auto locksmith or recovery to another suitable location.
Basic Roadside Diagnostics
Basic roadside fault assessment can sometimes help identify why a vehicle will not start or why a warning or electrical issue has appeared.
This is roadside assistance and basic roadside fault assessment. If the problem requires workshop repair, we can recover the vehicle to your chosen garage.
EV Breakdown & Immobilisation
If an electric vehicle is flat, shut down or immobilised and cannot continue, we can assess the safest recovery and loading requirements.
Recovery skates, winching and appropriate loading methods can assist with many suitable immobilised EVs.
Car Won’t Start
A non-start can have several causes, from a discharged battery to another electrical or mechanical fault. We can assess the roadside options first.
If the vehicle cannot be made safe and reliable to continue, recovery can be arranged to a garage or other agreed destination.
ONE CALL • TWO POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS
Roadside First. Recovery If You Need It.
If we can get you moving safely at the roadside, we will. If we can’t, BZ Recovery can recover the vehicle.
This is one of the main advantages of calling a company that provides both roadside assistance and vehicle recovery. You do not have to start again with another provider if the roadside problem turns out to be more serious than expected.
OPTION 01
Get You Moving
Where the problem can be resolved safely at the roadside, the aim is to get the vehicle moving again without unnecessary transportation.
OPTION 02
Recover the Vehicle
If the vehicle cannot be made safe to continue, we can arrange recovery to your chosen garage, repair centre, home or another suitable destination.
