EV Breakdown and Recovery

Vehicle-appropriate roadside assessment, loading and transport for electric cars and vans.

FGH Assist

Recovery planned around the vehicle

Electric vehicles can require different loading, wheel and manufacturer considerations. We establish the vehicle, fault, wheel condition, state of charge and any collision damage before confirming the recovery approach.

Every instruction is assessed against the vehicle, location, condition, access and intended destination. Where a specialist vehicle class or procedure is required, capability is confirmed before acceptance.
