AAA Arizona Offers Free Roadside Assistance to First Responders and Healthcare Workers

AAA

AAA Arizona announced a new initiative offering free AAA Roadside Assistance service to first responders and healthcare workers, to help get these heroes back on the road so they can save lives and keep the community safe.

“First responders and healthcare workers are on the front lines of this crisis,” said Tim Condon, President & CEO of AAA Arizona. “Offering free AAA Roadside Assistance when they break down is a small way AAA can help get these heroes back on the road to where they’re needed most. As a member service organization and leader in roadside assistance, AAA is proud to lend our services to ensure the safety, security and peace of mind of the communities we serve.”

All first responders and healthcare workers, including those who  may not be AAA members, can call 1-800-AAA-HELP if they need roadside assistance. The offer is valid through the end of May. AAA Roadside Assistance operates as an essential service during shelter-in-place orders, and is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

This announcement is the latest of several initiatives AAA Arizona is doing to help communities respond to and recover from COVID-19, including:

  • Insurance Premium Refunds: AAA Arizona’s auto policy customers will receive premium refunds totaling $100 million. Members with an active policy as of April 30 will receive a 20% refund for two months of auto premiums (refunds are available everywhere, except where prohibited by law). Customers do not need to take any action to receive their refund, and they can expect to receive it by May 31. The refund program will continue to be evaluated based on the length of shelter-in-place orders.
  • Member Wellness Calls: As 95% of the country remains under stay-at-home orders, AAA Arizona employees are mobilizing to ensure our members are safe and secure at home. Employees are calling AAA members to share cost-saving tips, and offering to connect members to other public resources as they adapt to these challenging times.
  • Virtual Car Seat Inspections: AAA Arizona is helping expectant families get home safely from the hospital by offering free virtual car seat inspections with nationally certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians. With 3 in 4 car seats installed incorrectly, this virtual inspection will help ensure their newest family member is safely secured while they need to be on the road.  To learn more about child passenger safety click here.
  • Vehicles for Good: In Northern California, where AAA operates the GIG Car Share service, our Gig4Good program helps local community organizations. Community partners receive free driving credits and dedicated Gig cars to help mobilize their community efforts, including food delivery and distribution. Additionally, Gig is offering 2 hours of free driving credit for members to make essential trips, such as grocery shopping, on Tuesday, April 21 from 2-4 p.m. PST.  To learn more about the program click here.
