A question I cannot answered.

I have a question about The Good Sam Roadside Assistance program That Im having a hard time finding an answer for.

They state they will tow you to the nearest repair facility up to 100 miles.

Here is my Question,,I own a repair center and handle all my problems myself.99% of my camping is within 200 miles of home.If Im 150 miles from home and have an incident that requires a tow will good sam pay for the first 100 miles leaving me responsible for the balance or am i required to be taken to the closest facility and trust that the mechanics there knows my unit better than i do.

Simply stated If I dont want anyone else to repair my motor home will they pay for the first 100 miles of tow and let me pay the remainder when coach is dropped in my lot.

  • Hello 96bounder,

    Thank you for your inquiry! Under the Platinum + Roadside Assistance plan you have the choice between the unlimited mileage to the nearest service center, or anywhere of your choosing within 100 miles. So effectively, the answer to your question is yes: if you are 150 miles from your shop, we would take care of the first 100 miles then you would be responsible for the additional 50 miles. I would certainly suggest looking into this program because it would fit your needs the best as it's our only program that offers the choice of any shop within 100 miles. Please let me know if you need anything else. Thank you and have a wonderful weekend!
