    After buying a Ford car I now have Ford roadside assistance. I have been with AA for years so it makes sense now to cancel the AA but I am just wondering if the Ford Roadside Assistance is as good and as reasonable fast as the AA

    Does Ford roadside assistance cover you outside of Ireland?

    The difference is the AA policy is on you but the Ford assist policy is attached to the car.

    If that isn't a deal breaker you should look at cancelling. As above, the manufacturers assistance is usually very comprehensive.

    indeed AA covers you no matter what car you are driving including one you borrow.

    There are pros & cons.
    Is the car under Ford warranty still,what year is it?
    If not do you get it serviced by an Independent garage.
    Ford Assist only recovers to the nearest dealer.
    What AA cover have you? Road Rescue or Rescue Plus with Home start.
