I used to have the FMCA plan contract details bookmarked, my bookmark is now dead for some reason. The Saferide plans for FMCA that cost less than $159/yr do not cover a self-propelled RV. Good Sam ERS is about the same, $159 for self-propelled RV's, $129 for trailers.The bottom line is, no company is in business to lose money intentionally.

I would like it to be cheaper but on just 2 tows years ago I have still come out ahead. I hope I have to keep paying and never have to use them.

Georgianne Posted August 31, 2020 Report Share Posted August 31, 2020 On 8/20/2020 at 8:06 AM, Georgianne said: To answer the question about tow vehicle coverage- our CEO is reaching out to the president of VAS (parent company of Saferide who services our roadside assistance program) for clarification. The only exception to tow vehicle coverage that we are aware of is if your tow vehicle is a medium-duty or heavy-duty truck which has it's own sleeper cabin. In those cases, they must carry their own policy per VAS, in addition to the policy on the trailer. Checking in to update that we are still working on this answer with VAS. Between our own office closures due to hurricanes and other scheduling conflicts, we haven't been able to connect with their president just yet. We hope to have an answer on this soon! I will check back in once we do Quote Communications Director Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlennWest Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 That's the very reason I don't use it.

kristinalaska Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 Fortunately, Coach-Net still covers your motor home, trailers, and other vehicles you own under one policy. No questions when you need help, no matter where you might be. No problem if you have another vehicle with a "BED". No surprise bills after service, either. Thank Heaven For Them!

That is not true if unless you have a premium policy. Just 2 months ago friends or ours had an engine failure with their diesel truck and were refused to be towed by Coach Net because the fifth wheel was not attached.

kristinalaska Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 (edited) Yes, of course you have to have Premier coverage for all your vehicles and trailers. But they certainly came to the rescue for my unattached trailer, also for various cars, motorhome and truck. $169/year Edited September 1, 2020 by kristinalaska Add Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristinalaska Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 This is the coverage -- As a Coach-Net Premier Coach Member you have access to 24/7 unlimited roadside assistance for all your vehicles - anything you own, rent or borrow - plus RV Technical Assistance, nationwide tire delivery services, concierge services, and more. Your membership also includes coverage for trailers, tow dollies, boat trailers, and utility trailers... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Coachnet covers us. I would use escapees if they had a premium policy. But I have to buy two and that is a lot more than Coachnet.

I will check back in once we do I have an answer! As suspected (and promised) your Escapees Roadside Assistance policy (which is serviced by Saferide/VAS) does include all vehicles under the same policy. The only exception to this is what I mentioned previously regarding MDT & HDT tow vehicles that have sleeping quarters. Those specific tow vehicles need a policy of their own, per VAS. Roadside assistance is roadside assistance- as long as your vehicle isn't included in the exception above, it gets the same coverage as your RV, your towed vehicle, and/or any other vehicle under your ERA policy. If for some reason you are told otherwise when trying to make a claim, ask for a supervisor or call back and speak with someone else. Keep notes of what you're told, and copies of your receipts/invoices. Customer service representatives can and do make mistakes, but VAS will make it right. Each call is recorded, and when they learn that something was handled incorrectly, they pull the recording to review the situation and do their best to make it right for the customer.
