  3. Land Rover – 34 per cent breakdown rate – £510 average payout claim
  4. Chrysler – 26 per cent breakdown rate – £475 average payout claim
  5. Mercedes – 25 per cent breakdown rate – £560 average payout claim
  6. Jaguar – 23 per cent breakdown rate – £440 average payout claim
  7. Lexus – 22 per cent breakdown rate – £470 average payout claim

  9. Volvo – 16 per cent breakdown rate – £465 average payout claim

      Hi Denise,

      If it is a new vehicle, then it’s the manufacturer who provides the break down assistance.
