MINI debuts roadside assistance iPhone app (Video)

E-mail Print PDF

I have owned two of MINI since 2002, and a cool benefit of being a MINI MINI Roadside Assistance owner was including the roadside assistance program that had all new MINI's. Well, it seems to have gone a step further and have created an iPhone application to make full use of its roadside assistance program. AAA roadside assistance iPhone application was released recently and it looks like this may be a trend among insurance companies. MINI USA worked with Allstate Insurance for creating your iPhone application, a GPS-equipped BlackBerry version is also available, allowing owners to automatically call for roadside assistance. To use the application you have to enter your vehicle identification number after downloading the application, you can even upload a picture of your cute little Mini in the application.


 

The next time you have punctured a wheel or a fender bender, just pull up the MINI roadside assistance and application can request the service, and coordinates the implementation Allstate contacts with the application that provides its location via GPS. This is a great application that gives people some piece of mind when you are on the way, I am sure that other car manufacturers and insurance companies that soon the same with their own applications.
