Vauxhall is offering all its franchised retailers’ service customers 12-months’ free roadside assistance from the RAC as part of a new ‘Here For You’ aftersales promise.

Offered across the Stellantis-owned brand’s 290 UK car retail sites, ‘Here For You’ also promises customers: Vauxhall-trained technicians; price-matched original parts with a 12-month warranty; complimentary safety checks; a courtesy car during service work; tailored payment plans; and a clean car.

Vauxhall said that the free 12-month roadside assistance plan not only covers breakdown recoveries, but also instances of punctures, lost keys, misfuelling and home starts and is available to retail customers who service their Vauxhall, of any age, at a participating Vauxhall retailer.

Vauxhall customer experience director Richard Hughes said: “With ‘Here For You’, Vauxhall is placing all of its added value services under a single promise that’s guaranteed for owners with every service at their local retailer.

“Importantly, the ‘Here For You’ promise doesn’t end with the service, as our 12-month Roadside Assistance plan ensures that if help is needed, it is only a phone call away.”
