RV Breakdowns Require Specialized Towing
Whether you're on a cross-country trip or a weekend getaway, an RV or motorhome breakdown can be a major inconvenience. Because of their size and weight, these vehicles require heavy-duty towing equipment and experienced operators.
Common RV and Motorhome Issues on the Road
- Engine or transmission failure
- Flat or blown tires
- Electrical system problems
- Overheating, especially in warmer months
- Breakdowns at campgrounds or rest stops
What Makes RV Towing Different
Motorhomes are significantly heavier and longer than standard vehicles, requiring trucks with higher towing capacity and operators familiar with the unique weight distribution and handling characteristics of RVs.
What to Do If Your RV Breaks Down
Move to the shoulder or a safe area if possible, turn on hazard lights, and contact a towing company experienced in RV and motorhome recovery. Let them know the size and type of your vehicle so they send the appropriate truck.
Protecting Your Investment
RVs and motorhomes represent a significant investment, so it's worth confirming that any towing company you call has the right heavy-duty equipment before they arrive, rather than risking damage from improperly rated equipment.
