of Columbia)
• If your car breaks down on the road, just call 1-800-MC-ASSIST
and
tell us where you are.
• We’ll send someone to the rescue. This is not only reassuring,
but it may also save you money because fees for many services (jump-starts,
towing, gas delivery, tire changes) are pre-negotiated. Road service
fees will be automatically billed to your Gold MasterCard® account.
• You are responsible for emergency road service charges incurred
by
towing facilities responding to your dispatch, even if you are not
with your car (or it’s gone) when the tow truck arrives. MasterCard
International is not responsible or liable for the service the towing
facility provides. Towing facilities are independent contractors,
solely
liable for their services.
• Emergency road service is not available in areas not regularly
traveled, in “off-road” areas not accessible by ordinary
towing vehicles, or for
over one-ton capacity trailers, campers, or vehicles-in-tow.
• If you have a rental vehicle, be sure to call the car rental
agency
before you call 1-800-MC-ASSIST, as many rental agencies
have
special procedures regarding emergency road service.
