AWARD-WINNING INSURANCEAustralia's Most Satisfied Customers
Youi Roadside Assist comes included as standard with all Youi Comprehensive car and Comprehensive motorcycle insurance policies. To provide this service, we’ve partnered with Digicall, one of Australia’s largest roadside assistance providers, to offer our customers help when they’re out on the road. Some exclusions, limits and fees apply – see the T&Cs and PDS for details.1
We’ll jump-start your car’s current battery. If we can’t, subject to availability, we’ll arrange a replacement battery if required, or tow the vehicle.2
If you’ve run out of fuel, we’ll arrange for the delivery of enough fuel, up to a maximum of 10 litres, to help you reach the nearest petrol station. If the car is an LPG fuelled or electric vehicle, we’ll organise a tow to the nearest petrol station or charging station, or nearest place of safety.3
If we can’t get you back on the road, we'll arrange and pay for vehicle towing to the nearest accredited repairer – up to 20km in a metro area or 50km in a regional area from the breakdown location. There are some exclusions to towing, for example, we do not tow vehicles over a total vehicle weight of 3.5 tonnes.1
If you get a flat tyre, we’ll change it with your spare or, if it’s towable, arrange a tow to an approved tyre outlet or nearest place of safety up to 20km in a metro area or 50km in regional area from the breakdown location.1
If your keys are lost (but not stolen) or locked inside your car or motorcycle compartment, we’ll either arrange for the spare key to be delivered, arrange to gain access to your vehicle, or arrange a tow if it’s towable. Locksmith fees are covered up to $150.4
Towing a caravan or trailer? Provided you’re within the towing limits for your car, if your car breaks down and can’t be driven, provided they are towable, we’ll tow both vehicles to the same location. The maximum combined weight of the car and caravan or trailer must not exceed 3.5 tonnes, and you need to let us know about the caravan or trailer when you call for assistance.5
If your vehicle becomes bogged, we’ll recover it, provided there’s safe access for a conventional two-wheel drive recovery vehicle and no other specialist equipment is needed to do so.
If your vehicle cannot be mobilised on the roadside and there’s a taxi service in the area, we’ll pay up to $50 for one taxi ride for you and your passengers to help you get where you need to be.
