How to contact BMW Roadside Assistance

First things first: if you’re in immediate need of assistance, contact BMW directly. The Roadside Assistance phone number is 800-332-4BMW (800-332-4269).

Alternatively, you can dial the toll-free number provided in your BMW owner’s manual, or use the BMW Roadside Assistance app on your smartphone. With assistance available in all 50 states, you’ll have guaranteed support wherever your BMW takes you.

What is BMW Roadside Assistance?

This is a comprehensive service that assists drivers during various roadside emergencies: flat tires, car lockouts, dead batteries, and more. It’s available in all 50 states, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Key features associated with this service include the following. 

Tire changes

Flat tires can happen anywhere, and rarely at a convenient time. Roadside Assistance from BMW offers tire change support with just a phone call or click of a button. Trained professionals will arrive promptly to help you change your tire and get back on the road.

Lockout services

No one plans to lock their keys in their vehicle. BMW helps by providing swift and professional lockout services to help you regain access to your vehicle.

Battery jump starts

When your car battery dies, you don’t have to rely on the kindness of strangers to get a jump. BMW assistance can give you the boost you need to get to the nearest repair facility.

Delivery of fuel or operating fluids

If you inadvertently run out of gas or your BMW starts overheating, Roadside Assistance from BMW can help. They’ll deliver the necessary operating fluids to help your vehicle along to the next fuel station or service center.

Trip interruption coverage

Experiencing issues with your vehicle is bad enough, but when you’re on a trip it’s an even bigger hassle. That’s why BMW offers trip interruption coverage. This covers additional costs, including hotel accommodations and alternate transportation. So even if you experience unexpected travel disruptions, you can have peace of mind and know you’re covered.

Seeking repair at your local BMW dealership & repair center

If your BMW requires repairs beyond what can be provided roadside, they’ll tow your vehicle to the nearest authorized BMW center, staffed with certified technicians trained to handle your vehicle with care.

If an issue happens within the Rockford, IL area, Lou Bachrodt BMW provides full-scale service and repair with precise analysis from qualified, trained professionals who are experts in every aspect of your vehicle, as well as access to the latest specialized technology.

Is my vehicle covered by BMW Roadside Assistance?

So let’s answer the question: is your vehicle covered by BMW Roadside Assistance? This coverage is available for four years from the original in-service date of your new BMW, or up to six years for Certified Pre-Owned BMWs. There are no mileage limitations, and now separate costs to you. While this coverage has no automatic renewal options, you can always opt for BMW Extended Roadside Assistance (RSA+).

BMW RSA+ offers two tiers: the first includes four roadside assistance events in a year for $150, while the second covers six roadside assistance events in three years for $350. Event use is determined based on requirements for specific on-site services and does not include a call to the Roadside Assistance Center.
