Breakdown Cover

[carlt69]

Hi I've had a quick search but can't find the exact answer,

Do you get a document or anything to show that you have the free breakdown cover from Seat or is there a breakdown number that you call if the car does give up??

The dealer I bought the car from didn't mention anything about it and i can't find anything to do with it in the manuals etc.

Thanks

Depending on when the car was bought you would get 3years or 5 years Seat Assistance (AA).

The number you call is the std SEat customer line which was 0800 222222, not sure if it still is.

no document or anything to prove it unfortunately,

although it does work as i used it 3 times on my old Ibiza, superb ech and every time.

is ther not a number on the back of your dealer road robbery disc holder?
VW's is on the back of there on my caddy.

The breakdown number is 0500 22 22 22.

You're supposed to send SEAT one of those "owner details" forms but I never bothered and haven't had a problem.

I've replaced the tax holder with a nice Silver jobby

That's ok then I'll just write the number down and keep it in the car

Thanks for the replies


Cheers

The car is a on a 54 plate. Any ideas how long I would get the AA assistance for??

Only 3 years I think.

As for the original question - when I bought my LC, I rang Seat and they sent a letter confirming I had the required cover (5 years for me )

Does the car hold the cover, or the original buyer?
I have just bought a July 2003 LCR, do i have cover?

My Sep 2003 LCR has 5 years cover. I didnt have any document either, so I sent a letter to SEAT Cust Serv and they wrote back confirming the 5 years.

The cover is for the car, not the owner, so 5 years is 5 years regardless of who owns it.

Give the breakdown line a ring and ask them to check the expiry date on their database.

My 54 LCR came with 5yrs and I think it said it in the drivers pack?

I've just checked this out & rang the number above - I got 2 years AA cover on my FR

 

[jedi knight]

Had 5 years cover with mine

 

[ChrisUK]

Anyone whou bought one after the 1st Jan 2005 only has 2 years cover - how crappy is that !

Could be worse... I get 1 year with my ST. Though I got 5 years with my March 2003 Ibiza.
