We have been AAA members for years. Yes, the roadside service is worth it -- and the key service, if you lock your keys in the car. We have used AAA travel services, and we have received extra perks on a cruise as well as $100 bonus, which we used for Amazon credit.
Classic members receive standard benefits such as roadside assistance, member discounts, and access to AAA Insurance and vacation planning. Eligible vehicles include most passenger cars, trucks, SUVs and vans. Student Members receive the benefits of the level of membership purchased at a reduced rate.
AARP beats AAA car insurance for claims satisfaction
Regarding claims satisfaction, customers gave AARP slightly better reviews than AAA, though there are crucial differences across individual categories including first notice of loss (FNOL), repair services, claim processing and settlement.
Best Roadside Assistance Companies
AAA Basic membership provides peace of mind when traveling in your car --or someone else's--with world class 24/7 roadside assistance. Basic members enjoy exclusive benefits and discounts on travel, entertainment, and so much more with our Discounts and Rewards® program, too.
According to AAA, the membership provides benefits to the actual member, not the vehicle. That means if you are with someone else who is having car problems, you can use your card to get service for their vehicle. The same would work if you don't have a membership but a friend traveling with you does.
AAA Basic Membership benefits are available immediately to members upon joining. Plus and Premier service is effective 7 days after enrollment or upgrade payment is received.
Each member (Primary or Associate) in your household is allowed four Emergency Road Service calls per year. (If there are two AAA members in your household, each one would be allowed four calls for a total of eight.) There is no waiting time between Roadside Assistance calls.
AAA covers you for flat tire changing. The AAA service vehicle will go to the vehicle and replace your flat tire with your spare, free of charge to you. Tire service/replacement is a temporary fix and not a permanent repair. AAA recommends the member bring the vehicle to a repair facility for a permanent repair.
AARP is not worth it. They most definitely do not want have the well being of seniors in mind. They are more of a scam then anything else. Sad because they target the seniors.
Up to 40% off home appliances at Lowe's. Up to 40% off home decor at Home Depot.
Unfortunately, no other large moving truck companies—Penske and U-Haul—or self-storage companies offer discounts to AARP members.
