Going all out to reaffirm its position as Malaysia’s
No.1 Motoring Friend, the Automobile Association
of Malaysia (AAM) has introduced an Accident Care
Programme that has been designed to assist members in
their time of difficulty and need.
The programme is an extra service and benefit
introduced for Cruize Visa, Shape Lady’s & A1 Team
Malaysia card holders who also purchase AAM’s
Autopal motor insurance. Autopal’s existing benefits
already include 24-hour breakdown assistance available
throughout Malaysia, supported by more than 200
workshops and AAM’s breakdown centres, and minoron-
the-spot repair services.
Under the Accident Care Programme, AAM will assist
members who are involved in an accident that occurs
within the Free Breakdown Zone.
In the event of an accident, a personnel from the
nearest AAM call centre will be immediately dispatched
to the scene to assist and provide members with
guidance. This is also to ensure that members are
protected from being bullied by unscrupulous tow-truck
and independent workshop operators.
AAM has also set-up a special motorcycle patrol unit
for the purpose of dispatching its personnel to the scene
of the accident quickly.
The vehicle however, must be the member’s
registered vehicle with AAM and is insured by Autopal.
The damaged vehicle will then be towed by an
appointed panel workshop or tow truck operator to the
police station and than to the workshop.
“We designed this programme to safeguard our
members in their hour of need,” said AAM Chairman
Tunku Datuk Mudzaffar Tunku Mustapha.
The initiative is part of an ongoing effort to reorganize
and enhance operations at AAM towards extending
greater as well as innovative benefits, convenience and
services to its members.
“Addressing all critical areas will ensure the continued
success of AAM as well as enable us to not only adapt
quickly and become flexible in our processes, but
embrace the single-mindedness to strive for enhanced
quality, services and greater customer satisfaction,” said
Tunku Mudzaffar.
Upon request, AAM can also arrange transportation
for the member (not more than 4 persons) to any location
within the same AAM Free Breakdown Zone where the
accident occurred.
AAM also offers members an independent and
unbiased vehicle inspection after the accident repair.
Please contact the AAM Inspection Unit at 03-
26111780/ 1779 or call any nearest AAM office to fix an
appointment. |
