Ford Assistance UK
Important Service Change
As of 1st January 2026, Ford UK has switched their breakdown recovery services from the AA to Allianz Recovery.
✓ Previous Service: The AA
Previously, breakdown recovery services included in Ford servicing packages were provided by the AA (Automobile Association). The AA has been a trusted name in roadside assistance for over a century, known for their experienced technicians, comprehensive tools, and ability to fix vehicles at the roadside.
⚠ New Service: Allianz Recovery
The new provider, Allianz Recovery, has been reported to lack the same level of service quality that AA customers were accustomed to.
Limited Skills: Allianz technicians may not have the same depth of experience and training as AA patrolmen
Inadequate Experience: Less expertise in diagnosing and resolving roadside issues efficiently
Missing Tools: Reports suggest Allianz technicians may not have the comprehensive toolkit needed to fix cars at the roadside
What This Means for Ford Customers
If you experience a breakdown, you may find that Allianz technicians are less able to repair your vehicle at the roadside compared to the AA service you may have received previously. This could result in longer wait times, more towing incidents, and increased inconvenience.
