Excitement Builds about the NEW Roadside Assistance Program and the Upcoming Good Sam Roadside Assistance 200
Good Sam Enterprises (GSE) recently announced a new partnership with NASCAR to offer a comprehensive Roadside Assistance Program to those traveling by auto, truck, or SUV.
Leveraging Good Sam’s existing proprietary network of service providers throughout North America including the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, the new NASCAR Roadside Assistance will provide unlimited-distance towing to the nearest network service facility. “Sign & drive” coverage will also be available in Mexico.
Coverage will be available for virtually any type of truck, auto, or van and includes coverage at no extra charge for spouses and dependent children. Other services will include mobile mechanic dispatch for minor roadside repairs, tire changes, jump starts, delivery of up to five gallons of fuel if the customer runs out, lockout service, lost key return and much more. In the coming months, members will be able to get help via a downloadable app on the customer’s smart phone as dispatchers can use GPS technology to pinpoint the customer’s location. The new NASCAR Roadside Assistance will also utilize the GSE program’s nationwide tire network for fast delivery and service so customers can get back on the road following a tire mishap.
“We are pleased to partner with NASCAR and to provide this exceptional Roadside Assistance product,” said Marcus Lemonis, Good Sam Enterprises Chairman & CEO. “Taking care of customers whether on their way to work, a relaxing weekend with family or coming and going from an exciting NASCAR race weekend is our core focus. We are the travelers’ 9-1-1 — we take calls and send the help you need when trouble finds you on the road.”
