Free roadside assistance for healthcare workers, first responders

AAA-The Auto Club Group is offering free AAA Roadside Assistance to all health care workers and first responders in the Chicago area.

The free AAA services, including towing, tire changes, fuel delivery, battery service, jump-starts, and lockout service, are available for front line workers through the end of April, regardless of whether they are AAA members. Eligible nonmembers can call (833) 222-3284 to receive these free services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

"These front line workers are spending tireless hours protecting us while at work, and we want to protect them on their journey there and back," said Nick Jarmusz, Midwest director of public affairs for AAA-The Auto Club Group. "Healthcare workers and first responders put themselves at risk every day. The least we can do is make sure they are taken care of if they have car trouble during this critical time."
