What To Do In Case of Car Breakdown

No matter how bad the breakdown is, the first and the most important thing is not to panic and get upset.

2step1 | Tan Chong Insure

Stay Calm

Thankfully, catastrophic and sudden breakdowns are rare. Your car will usually give you some indication that it’s not happy. Listen out for unusual sounds and keep an eye on dashboard warning lights. Try to stay calm and keep others in the car calm as well.

2step2 | Tan Chong Insure

Stay Safe

When you feel that something is amiss about your vehicle, immediately start looking for a safe place to park and turn on your hazard lights. If you are on the highway, park in the far left lane for safety purposes.

2step3 | Tan Chong Insure

Stay Visible

Should you be on the road, find the most appropriate spot to park to minimize the congestion to the traffic. However, if your car breaks down in the middle of the road, it’s recommended to put the warning triangle about 30 meters behind your car to signal to oncoming vehicles. Be sure that your car is in neutral so that it can be manually shifted or towed if necessary.

2step4 | Tan Chong Insure

Make a Call

Call TCIBS Emergency Care Line 1800 88 3838 and inform them of your situation. Wait for the Rescue Team to check and determine if the car can be solved with a quick fix or to be towed to the nearest authorised service centre/ workshop.
