What if I ran out of gas? or broke down? Would they bring gas, or give me a tow? If yes how much? And how far would they tow me? Do I just show im the owner of the car? I would love to know more about this?

Thanks.
Quoting from the Roadside Assistance brochure that came with my '92 300E, "There will be charges for Roadside Assistance repairs. The fees are as follows: $25.00 service fee plus labour at 1.5 times the participating dealer's normal rate (minimum charge: 30 minutes, plus towing and any parts used)."

The labour rates at nearby dealers in my area range from $95 to $125 per hour, so roadside assitance will be in the $150 (CAD) per hour rate with a minimum of 30 minutes; plus parts & towing. Close to $100 to change a tire? Ouch!! Hello CAA/AAA.
