GET PEACE OF MIND KNOWING YOU HAVE FINANCIAL SUPPORT TO FIX OR REPLACE BROKEN VEHICLE PARTS

Thousands of people rely on their vehicles daily for a variety of reasons: getting to work, dropping children off at school, shopping, and many, many more. A vehicle is a lifeline for most of us and without our vehicles, we would be stranded.

But vehicles are machines that sometimes experience mechanical breakdowns. As your vehicle gets older and increases its kilometers, its parts may break, increasing the chances of an unexpected failure.

Having your vehicle suddenly break down is not only stressful because you’re without transport, but it can also be expensive to repair, especially if you haven’t budgeted for this unexpected repair cost.

In older vehicles, a manufacturer’s warranty may have expired, due to the age of the vehicle or its kilometers traveled, and the costs to repair the vehicle must be fully paid for by the owner.

The Automobile Association (AA) has developed a monthly insurance product in conjunction with our insurance partners, which addresses this issue, and provides peace of mind to owners in the event of a breakdown.

This warranty, or mechanical breakdown insurance as it is also known, is an insurance policy that provides protection against the cost of parts and labour following mechanical or electrical, or electronic failure of a covered part. It is designed to provide you with peace of mind in the event of an unexpected breakdown. It will not provide you with cover for maintenance on your vehicle. If you require this, you must purchase a maintenance plan that will provide peace of mind when a part breaks due to wear and tear.

Policies are 12-month policies, renewable annually in the same way as vehicle insurance.

What’s covered by a warranty?

All warranty policies are different, so you must read the terms and conditions

of your policy carefully to see what you’re covered for. Generally,

a policy will cover major components including:

  • The engine
  • Transmission system
  • Fuel and ignition systems
  • Cooling system
  • Electronic and Electrical Parts
  • Gearbox (Manual and Automatic)
  • Steering
  • Suspension

You can choose a cover plan that suits your vehicle’s age

As vehicles get older and less reliable, the likelihood of suffering a costly breakdown increases.

We cover these vehicles

  • Passenger type vehicles (private and business use only)
  • 4x4s and light commercial vehicles (private and business use only)
  • Mini-bus and panel vans (private and business use only)

“Thank you AA for the exceptional service and the hospitality from your drivers.”

Blue Light behaviour a shameful blight on SA roads

The presence of Blue Light Brigades appears to be increasing with these high-speed motorcades now an almost daily occurrence on Gauteng highways. The Automobile Association (AA) says Blue Light Brigades pose a threat to road users, particularly as drivers in the vehicles transporting politicians and behave aggressively towards other motorists. “The vicious assault on three drivers on the N1 highway in Fourways, Johannesburg in 2023 is a good example of how ‘protection officers’ in the...
