When most drivers think about extended breakdown coverage, they think about repair bills. And while that’s the main reason to have it, the best plans also include benefits that many people forget about until they need them.

Some of the most valuable extras I’ve seen include:

- **Roadside assistance** if you’re stranded away from home
- **Free maintenance** like oil changes and brake pads
- **Rental car coverage** while your vehicle is being repaired
- **Towing **when a breakdown leaves you stuck on the side of the road

These benefits don’t always get the attention they deserve, but they can make a stressful situation much easier to handle. I’ve heard from plenty of listeners who told me those extras were lifesavers when things went wrong.

Chaiz makes it clear which plans include these perks, so you know exactly what you’re signing up for.
