Roadside Assistance for Core Audi Models*

In the event of a roadside situation, one or more of the following can be provided to you:

Battery jump-start:
› A service operator will be dispatched to provide a jump-start. If your vehicle cannot be driven safely, towing services will be provided (see “Emergency Towing”).

Emergency extrication service:
› Audi Roadside Assistance will cover the cost of extricating your vehicle from a ditch, mud, sand or snow, provided it has become disabled in an area immediately adjacent to a regularly travelled road that can be serviced with standard automobile servicing equipment.

Emergency fuel service¹:
› If you happen to run out of fuel, complimentary service and an emergency supply of fuel will be delivered to get you on your way.

Emergency towing²:
› Complimentary towing will be provided to the nearest authorized Audi dealership or authorized Audi service facility.

Flat tire service³:
› If your vehicle has a flat tire, a service operator will attempt to remove it and install a spare tire. If you don’t have a properly inflated spare tire, or if the spare is not safely operable, towing service will be provided per the previously mentioned towing parameters.

Lock-out service⁴:
› An Audi service operator may be dispatched in an attempt to gain entry into your vehicle to retrieve your keys. Registration papers and personal photo identification may be requested at the scene.
› If you have lost your keys, contact your authorized Audi dealer immediately for further assistance.

 

 

¹ Emergency fuel delivery service is limited to five times per year.

² For security reasons, towing service will not be provided to an unattended vehicle—a licensed driver must accompany the vehicle at the time of service.

³ Mounting or dismounting special traction devices such as chains, or repairing a flat tire, are not covered under this program. For vehicles with a tire inflator kit (TIK), you have the option to receive a tow service, or assistance with use of the TIK with a follow-up tow if the TIK doesn’t work.

⁴Audi owner is solely responsible for any loss or damage resulting from this entry attempt. If access into your vehicle is unsuccessful, it will be towed to the nearest authorized Audi dealership. The cost for parts and/or labor to produce replacement keys is not included in this service.

If you need to arrange out-of-policy assistance in the event service cannot be dispatched to your location or you are located on a state-restricted roadway, you can be reimbursed for your out-of-pocket expenses up to a maximum of $200 for each disablement.¹
