Assistance on Motorways

On many European motorways or Autoroutes, particularly in France, if you breakdown the emergency telephones will be answered by the Police. They will arrange for a recovery vehicle to tow you and your vehicle off the motorway either to a local garage or perhaps to a motorway service station, without reference to AXA Assistance. You may be required to pay for this assistance on the spot, in which case obtain and keep receipt and we will reimburse you. Alternatively, once you and your Vehicle are towed to a place of safety call AXA Assistance and the recovery agent may accept our guarantee of payment. At this stage AXA Assistance will also arrange any other assistance you may require.

Only by calling the Emergency Helpline numbers, will you be able to claim for the services provided.
