GEM Breakdown Cover

GEM offers one fully comprehensive breakdown recovery service, with two options.
Both cover the same types of vehicles and offer the same quality service...

Complete UK breakdown cover:

Roadside assistance

If you break down more than ¼ mile from your home we will carry out emergency repairs to get you moving, or tow you to any one UK destination of your choice.

Nationwide recovery

We provide recovery to any one UK destination for you, the vehicle and up to seven passengers.

Home assistance

If your car won't start or breaks down at/or within ¼ mile of your home, we will either repair it there or take it to the nearest garage. (Our Recovery RECLAIM product is subject to a claim limit of £70, current average claim for Home assistance is £52.70)

Onward travel

If you break down more than 25 miles from home and repairs can't be carried out that day, we can assist with onward travel or overnight accommodation up to the value of £200.

We cover:

  • Running out of fuel
  • A flat battery or punctured tyre
  • Driver illness
  • YOU in any vehicle you are driving (excluding HGVs, LCVs, minibuses, vehicles used for private/public hire or to carry livestock. If in doubt, call our team on 0845 3700 940 to check your vehicle is covered)
