COMMON ROADSIDE PROBLEMS
Roadside Help for the Problems That Stop Your Journey
Not every breakdown needs a recovery truck straight away. Where the issue can be dealt with safely at the roadside, our aim is to help you continue your journey without unnecessarily transporting the vehicle.
Jump Start Assistance
If your vehicle has a discharged 12V battery and will not start, we can attend with jump-start equipment and assess whether the vehicle can be safely restarted.
Battery Assistance & Replacement
Flat or failed battery assistance, with battery replacement available where suitable and a compatible replacement battery can be supplied.
Puncture & Wheel Change
Roadside assistance for flat or damaged tyres, including fitting your suitable spare wheel where available and safe to do so.
Emergency Fuel Delivery
Run out of fuel? We can attend with fuel assistance where available to help you reach a petrol station or continue your journey.
Misfuel Assistance
Put the wrong fuel in your vehicle? Call us before attempting to continue driving. We can assess the situation and arrange the appropriate roadside assistance or recovery.
Vehicle Lockout Assistance
Locked out of your vehicle or keys inaccessible inside it? Contact us with the make, model and circumstances so we can confirm the assistance available.
Basic Fault Diagnostics
Basic roadside checks and fault assessment can help establish whether the vehicle can continue safely or whether recovery to a garage is the better option.
EV Roadside Assistance
Roadside and recovery assistance for suitable electric and hybrid vehicles, including flat 12V systems, immobilised EVs and vehicles unable to move normally.
Roadside Recovery
If the problem cannot be resolved safely where the vehicle has stopped, BZ Recovery can arrange recovery to your home, garage or another agreed destination.
ONE CALL • TWO POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS
If We Can Get You Moving Safely, We Will. If We Can’t, We Can Recover You.
Roadside assistance and vehicle recovery work together. If a safe roadside solution is available, that is usually the quickest way to get your journey moving again. If the fault needs garage attention or the vehicle cannot be driven safely, our recovery service can take over without you having to start searching for another company.
BROKEN DOWN ON A MOTORWAY OR HIGH-SPEED ROAD?
Your Safety Comes Before the Vehicle
If possible, move into a place of relative safety such as an emergency area, service area or hard shoulder where one is available and switch on your hazard warning lights.
If your vehicle is stopped in a live traffic lane and you cannot safely reach a place of relative safety or safely leave the vehicle, keep your seatbelt and hazard lights on and call 999.
Once you are in a safe position, call BZ Recovery with your road, direction of travel and the nearest junction, emergency area, service area or landmark you can identify.
