Breakdown Recovery on the M-1

Breakdown recovery gets you moving again when your car stops working mid-journey, 24/7, anywhere in Pakistan. We try to fix the fault at the roadside first, and if that is not possible we tow you and the car to a workshop or home. On the M-1 we cover the full route from Islamabad to Peshawar, in both directions.

  • Islamabad to Peshawar
  • Open 24/7, both directions
  • Fixed quote before dispatch
  • Motorway Police helpline: 130

Request a recovery truck

What happened?

You get a fixed price and arrival time before any truck leaves.

What happens

  1. Diagnosis over the phone

    We ask what happened just before the car stopped. That tells us whether to send a mechanic in a van or a tow truck straight away.

  2. Roadside repair attempt

    Many faults, such as a loose battery terminal, a split radiator hose or a blown fuse, can be fixed on the spot so you can drive on.

  3. Tow if it cannot be fixed

    If the fault needs parts or a workshop lift, we load the car and take it, plus you, to the place you choose.

Staying safe on the M-1

  • Strong crosswinds and dust on the open stretches can push light cars around. Keep both hands on the wheel and ease off if the car feels unsettled.
  • Winter mornings bring fog near Peshawar and Charsadda. Slow down, use low beams and fog lights, and never stop in a live lane to wait for it to clear.
  • Summer heat around Swabi and Rashakai is hard on cooling systems. Watch the temperature gauge and pull onto the hard shoulder before the engine overheats, not after.
  • If you stop, park fully on the hard shoulder, switch on hazards, place a warning triangle well behind the car and wait behind the barrier. Motorway Police can be reached on 130.

Questions

Do you provide breakdown recovery on the whole M-1?

Yes, from Islamabad to Peshawar in both directions, 24/7.

My car overheated. Should I keep driving to the next exit?

No. Pull over safely, switch off the engine and do not open the radiator cap while it is hot. Driving on an overheated engine can warp the cylinder head. Call us and we will advise you on the phone.

Do you always tow, or can you fix the car where it is?

We try a roadside fix first when the fault allows it. If it needs parts or a workshop, we tow. You only pay for what is agreed on the call.

How do I tell you where I am on the M-1?

Read the nearest kilometre marker on the left of the carriageway and tell us your direction of travel (towards Islamabad or towards Peshawar). Sharing your WhatsApp live location also works.
