The royal rescue plan: How to avoid car breakdowns

Most of us have a very real concern about how our cars will fare on the open road, especially if there’s a long journey involved. Even if you’re a typically calm person, we imagine that you’re not immune to the prickling of worry if there’s a couple 100kms on the agenda. All you’ve got to do is picture cruising along the road and think about what would happen if your car suddenly sputtered to a halt.

What a disaster.

Thankfully, armed with the right knowledge and our royal insurance at your side, you can be prepared for any mechanical mischief that tries to disrupt your travels.

Invest in a car warranty (AKA your modern-day knight in shining armour)

Our royal car warranty cover is like your personal knight in shining armour. With this policy, if your car’s parts fail, we’ll pay for them to be repaired or replaced and have you back on the road as soon as superhumanly possible, subject to the relevant T’s and C’s.

Check for roadside assistance

When your car is comprehensively insured by the king, you get access to our emergency assist services. These services have you covered 24/7, so whether your issue is medical, technical, or domestic, you know that you’re safe in the king’s hands.

Here’s how roadside assist service helps:

  • Mechanical or electrical breakdowns: Your car will be towed to the nearest place for repair or safekeeping.
  • Flat tyre: The labour cost of the tyre change, at both roadside and non-roadside locations is covered.
  • No fuel: If you’ve run out of fuel, 10L of fuel (charged to you) will be delivered to you ASAP.
  • Flat battery: We’ll race to jump-start your car and get you on the road again.
  • Locked out: Our locksmith will be dispatched and the first hour of labour is covered.
  • Remote assistance: If you’ve broken down more than 100km from your home, we’ll cover either accommodation for the night OR a taxi service to get you home OR a car rental (provided you pay the fuel, security deposit and running costs).

Prevention is the crown jewel

Having the king’s trifecta (car insurance, roadside assistance, and our royal car warranty) is vital. But what would put you over the top is preventative maintenance. This is your secret weapon to avoid needing help in the first place.

Make sure to have your car regularly serviced, check your fluid levels every time you fill up, and inspect your tyre pressure and signs of wear and tear. The way we see it, it’s your responsibility to make sure that your car is looked after and maintained as it should be… It’s our responsibility to step in when things go pear-shaped.

The king’s advice: ABP (always be prepared)

Equip yourself with the right cover, stay on top of your car’s maintenance, and you’ll be ready to conquer any challenge the road throws your way. That’s our advice, and then, if something unexpected happens, we’ll be there for you and give you the support you need to get you back on the road.

Remember, with King Price, you’re not just getting insurance. You’re getting peace of mind, premiums you can afford, and the best service.
