**Our insurance policy does not currently cover any cross border driving**

Incidents that occur outside of the province can result in expenses which are not covered by insurance.

Please be advised of the following information:

  • Towing costs - If the vehicle is undriveable and is out of province, the cost for the vehicle tow between the out of province location and Toronto is not covered by insurance
  • Tire and Glass - Same as always, not covered by insurance but any incident (windshield chips/cracks, or tire patching/replacement) will still need to be reported. Roadside assistance will still assist at no additional cost to provide help where possible (spare tire switch, patching kit help, etc)
  • Undriveable Vehicle - In the event your vehicle is towed if un-drivable, you are required to follow the tow to the location the vehicle will be located and update the Roam team with the location details
  • Maintenance and Work Orders - No work is to be authorized by the customer as per standard practice same as always. If any work is to be completed or service required, you must contact Roam in order to provide authorization or you can be fully responsible for any costs for un-authorized work
  • Impound Lots & 3rd Party Garage/Storage - In the event a vehicle is taken/towed to an impound lot or 3rd party lot/storage, the cost for the daily storage is not covered by insurance
