Agero introduces Tow To Repair

Provider of roadside assistance and driver safety services Agero introduced Tow To Repair, a turnkey technology solution and tow service that offers customers a touchless direct tow to their facility after a vehicle breakdown.

“By eliminating the stress vehicle owners often face when contemplating how and when to bring their vehicle in for emergency service, Tow To Repair helps service facilities support customers when they need it most, thereby driving brand affinity and customer loyalty. At the same time, with Tow To Repair, service facilities can unlock new revenue opportunities by taking advantage of the 90% of tows that result in a mechanical service order, with average repair costs ranging from $400 to $700. With 93% of customers reporting that they’re likely to make a repeat purchase based on excellent customer service, the opportunity for dealer, body and repair facilities to grow their share of the over $1,300 spent annually on maintenance, per car, is significant.”

“The automotive industry is facing a challenging economic climate. For dealers, repair and body shops, service and repair work can not only deliver high profit margins but create opportunities for these businesses to provide an exceptional experience to their customers – the difficulty is getting vehicles in the door. Tow To Repair offers a simple, convenient way for service facilities to offer a direct tow to their customers in order to capture these opportunities.” – Tim Chung, Business Lead – Dealer and Repair, Agero.
