What if the jump doesn’t work?

We’ll walk you through what that usually means — often a failing battery or alternator — and can arrange a tow to a shop from the same visit.

Can you jump-start any vehicle?

Most cars, trucks and SUVs, yes. Tell us your exact vehicle when you call in case it needs special handling.

Do I need to be with the vehicle?

Yes, someone needs to be present to unlock the vehicle and confirm the service.

Battery not turning over?
