Here’s what makes our UK and European caravan, campervan and motorhome breakdown cover better than other providers. Find out more.
Unlike other providers, we’ll find and fit a new leisure battery if yours is broken and can’t be fixed – so you don’t get stuck without power on your holiday.
Our competitors only cover up to 8 people – but even with really large groups, we’ll get everyone moving again if you break down.
Breaking down is even more stressful when you’re far from home. So we also offer cover for up to 49 countries in Europe, with a dedicated English-speaking helpline on hand to help you 24/7. So if you’re traveling in Europe, add European Rescue to your annual policy, or get caravan, campervan or motorhome European breakdown cover for a single trip.
With vehicle based cover, the vehicle is covered, it doesn’t matter who is driving or towing. With personal based cover, you are covered as the passenger or driver in any eligible vehicle.
Yes, provided you’ve got personal based cover.
Our conventional RAC UK breakdown cover doesn't cover large caravans and motorhomes that exceed 3.5 tonnes, 6.4 metres long including tow bar, 2.55 metres wide and 3 metres high.
Most breakdown providers have these restrictions, you may want to check your terms and conditions, along with your vehicle size and weight, to ensure your cover is valid.
Additionally when you are towing, RAC conventional breakdown cover will not recover you if the fault is with your caravan, only if the fault is with your towing vehicle.
Yes, If you only have Standard cover our Patrols will attempt to repair your vehicle at the roadside and if that’s not possible we’ll tow both your vehicle and caravan or trailer up to 10 miles.
If you choose Advanced or Ultimate cover, whether it’s your vehicle or caravan that’s broken down, we’ll help you with recovering both. Here’s how:
Yes, if you choose Advanced or Ultimate cover. If you breakdown on holiday and your vehicle can’t be repaired before you return home we’ll take you, any passengers, your vehicle and your caravan back home.
Motorhome cover – there are no restrictions
Caravan cover – there are no restrictions on the caravan, but your towing vehicle must weigh under 3.5 tonnes.
Campervan cover – the vehicle must weigh under 3.5 tonnes
Many breakdown providers have these restrictions so be sure to check your policy so that you don’t get caught out if your vehicle breaks down. The overall size restrictions include the tow bar which can often cause vehicles to exceed the length restrictions.
Yes. If you have more than one person covered on a personal breakdown policy, they all need to live at the same address. And if you have more than one vehicle covered on a vehicle policy, they all need to be registered to the same address.

With Arrival Standard cover we’ll tow your vehicle, caravan or trailer up to 10 miles.
If you buy Arrival Advanced or Ultimate, you'll benefit from the following:
Arrival Recovery: If your vehicle breaks down, we can tow to a single destination anywhere in the UK.
Arrival Follow-on: We’ll tow your caravan or trailer to a second location following recovery of your vehicle, up to 75 miles from where we tow your vehicle.
Arrival Return: If you’re travelling to a campsite and your vehicle breaks down, if the trip is 2 days or more, we’ll recover the vehicle onward to your campsite.
With RAC Arrival Breakdown Cover, if you top up with the wrong fuel we’ll drain & flush the fuel system, top your vehicle up with up to 10 litres of the correct fuel and if that doesn’t solve the problem we’ll tow you to a local garage so that you can get your vehicle repaired.
With Arrival European Breakdown added to you membership, you’ll have enhanced cover up to 7 days prior to your planned departure. You’ll be entitled to a hire vehicle whilst your vehicle is being repaired.
If your vehicle isn’t repaired prior to your planned departure date, you’re covered for up to 23 days hire and can take the hire vehicle to Europe. If your trip exceeds the 23 days hire you’ll be able to arrange and pay to continue hire directly with the hire car provider.
If your leisure battery runs out of charge, we’ll help to source a replacement and arrange for one of our patrols to fit it, subject to availability.
When an RAC patrol attends to fit the new leisure battery, we’ll provide a battery charger to allow you to charge your battery when your caravan or motorhome has been stored for a long period.
If your caravan, motorhome or campervan has a puncture we will send a patrol out to try and help source and fit a replacement.
If the towing vehicle weighs less than 3.5 tonnes then you will be able to buy caravan cover. If it weighs more than 3.5 tonnes then motorhome cover might be a better option as this has no restrictions and cover for your towed vehicle is included.
Motorhome cover will be the best cover option for you as this has no restrictions and allows you to tow.
