You may take out breakdown cover in one of three forms:
- Personal breakdown - covers a nominated person so that they may be covered in any vehicle even if they are only a passenger.

- Corporate breakdown - covers nominated vehicles within a corporate membership.
It is possible to attach both vehicle and personal cover to your membership or separately to suit your needs.

What is covered
If your vehicle breaks down or is involved in a crash over one mile from your home we will offer one hours service at the roadside to get you moving again.
Recovery:
OPTIONAL ADD ONS
Second Recovery -
You can take out this option as an extension to your Bronze or Silver cover; it is included in your Gold cover. We will extend your cover to include a second recovery if we are unable to fix your vehicle at the roadside and a suitable repairer cannot accept the vehicle until the following day provided the appropriate premium has been paid. We will take you, your vehicle and passengers to your home or overnight accommodation and will arrange direct with you to collect the vehicle and take it to a suitable repairer at a convenient time. This service is limited to our taking your vehicle to a repairer within 25 miles of the previous destination and must be linked to the previous call-out.
Towing to Garage:
Bronze
What is covered

If we are unable to get you moving within one hour, we will transport you, up to four passengers and your vehicle to a suitable garage within fifteen miles or take you home, if nearer, and if this is your preferred option.
Once the vehicle has been taken to a garage it is then your responsibility to instruct the repairer to make any repairs required. Any contract for repair will be between you and the repairer. We do not guarantee that any local recovery to a suitable garage will be within the opening hours of the repairer or that the repairer will be immediately available to undertake any required repair.
This service level is restricted to motorcycles, cars and car-based vans under 2.5t laden.
Home Service:
Optional Add Ons
Home Rescue
You can take out this option as an extension to your Bronze, Silver or Gold, to cover you if you break down at or within one mile of your home. We will provide assistance to get your car going at the roadside or tow you to a nearby garage.
Hire Car Benefit:No cover.
European Travel:
TRAVEL IN THE REST OF EUROPE
In several parts of Europe, if you break down on a motorway or other major public road the police will answer the phones. They will arrange for a local recovery company to send a recovery truck to you without contacting us. You will be required to pay for their service on the spot. These charges are not covered under the terms of this policy. We recommend that you request recovery to the next slip road; we are then able to provide assistance once the vehicle is off the motorway.
Please ensure that you carry your V5 registration document with you during your journey. Regulations might be different if you break down in another European member state and help may take longer to arrive. We will require detailed information from you regarding the location of your vehicle. We will need to know if you are on an outward or inward journey and details of your booking arrangements. If you have broken down in another European member state during a public holiday, many services will be closed during the holiday period. In these circumstances, you must allow us time to assist you and effect a repair to your vehicle. We will not be held liable for any delays in reaching your destination.
OPTIONAL ADD ONS
Europe.
You can take out this option as an extension to your Bronze, Silver, Gold or cycle rescue cover. This option extends your specified level of service to all states of the European Union, Norway and Switzerland for up to ninety days within one membership year.

RAPID RESPONSE PLEDGE

Claims must be made to the ETA membership department within fourteen days of the callout.
The rapid response pledge does not apply to:
- ETA corporate members, or
