Baystar, you should post this on the Forum under tires and you'll get a thousand responses

 

"Can anyone recommend a tire insurance company that actually delivers on advertised promises in the event we should have a tire issue while traveling."

I think you are talking about  The FMCA Roadside Assistance Program.

Thanks Bill,

I am looking for an insurance plan that covers all cost involved, this one will send a technician out with a tire but i would have to cover parts and labor.

As far as I know there isn't anyone that is doing that.

There is a company called Coach-Net that advertises this type of service so if anyone out there has any experience with them I would appreciate some feedback.

Thanks

Coach-Net is a great company, but I don't have any experience with their Tire Insurance policy.  I have been with Coach-Net Roadside Assist for a number of years and have been more than pleased with their service.

Thanks for the feedback, the tire policy is fairly inexpensive ($69.00) per year so it's not like it is a big risk financially. I want to make sure it I have a problem I can count on someone to bail me out and it sounds like Coach-net may be the answer.

I have been researching tire coverages and am going to pull the plug and get the one from Wholesale Warranty, the Warranty Specialist I have been talking to is Stephen Motz and he has been a very good source of information **  his email is stephen@wholesalewarranties.com

Here is the information for the Tire and Wheel program:

 

3 years = $349

5 years = $399

7 years = $449
 

   

Tire and Wheel Protection Benefits:

 

$0 Deductible / Unlimited Usage - There is no limitation to the number of times that you can use this policy over the course of your chosen term, and you are not responsible for any deductible for covered claims!

Transferrable – If you were to sell this unit you will be able to transfer the warranty to the new owner making your unit more appealing and valuable to subsequent owners.

Exclusive Features:

 

- Full replacement costs are covered when tire is un-repairable and/or the wheel is damaged so it is unable to seal with the tire.

- Coverage is extended to the tire and wheels of a vehicle being towed by a motorhome, or the vehicle that is towing a travel trailer or 5th wheel, while they are actively being towed/towing.

- Benefits can be used in the United States and Canada!

MY CONTRACT STATED THEY WILL BRING TIRE ,RIM OR WHATEVER IS NEEDED. HAPPY WITH THE EXPERIENCE I HAD. I DONT HAVE RATES ETC. BUT IT MIGHT BE WORTH A LOOK. BOSTON BERNIE
