I did a search online and didnt find any proper website for it.

However, google search gives the following links:

Must be some small company.

 

Worth a try i suppose.

Didnt know.. got the brochure pin under the wiper, took it back and lie on my table for months...

 

But sounds really cheap, $1.50 for a ease of mind...

Bro,

If you are buying travel insurance to Msia, there's one that comes with free roadside assistance. So it's 1 stone to kill 2 birds. Think quite good for family man like me. Family insurance protection + Roadside car assistance FOC

You tried? I have second thoughts on this service because it doesn't even have a proper website.

Actually come to think of it, if i kanna play out by them, it is only few dollars, nothing much to lose.

Just need to find alternatives if i run into trouble on M'sia roads

I didnt try what sin-car rescue care. I discovered that there is a travel insurance plan that provides insurance protection and roadside assistance. Some of the recovery are subsidised if you ran into trouble with the car. Think this is quite good as you dont want your holiday to be ruined just because of flat tires, batteries and worst some unexpected car problem that need to be towed back to Singapore.

Thanks for the info brother. Wonder how they classify the free breakdown zone. KL is a fav place to go, why isn't it free?

is it KL traffic too terok so they need to charge?

[Gantan88]

Where is that travel insurance plan from?

Care to share a not?

[Jamjammer]

Sure, but I dont gain anything from this and also have not try them before so dont know about their level of customer service from their SOS helpline.

It's called MayVoyage from MayBank. They have a plan specially tailored to driving to Msia.

I intend to try them when I make a trip to Msia next month. Maybe some bros here have any such experience on this can share with us?
