Breakdown Recovery on the M-16
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-16 we cover the full route from Karnal Sher Khan Interchange (M-1) to Chakdara, in both directions.

What happens
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.
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.
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-16
- Between Palai and Chakdara the motorway climbs and descends through the Malakand hills. Use a low gear going down and watch the temperature gauge going up, especially in a loaded car.
- Traffic to and from Swat can bunch up near the Chakdara end at holiday times. Leave a long gap and be ready for slow traffic as you approach the end of the motorway.
- Winter mornings can bring fog on the flat section near the M-1 and Mardan. Slow down, use low beams and fog lights, and never stop in a live lane to wait for it to clear.
- 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-16?
Yes, from Karnal Sher Khan Interchange (M-1) to Chakdara 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.
Do you cover the Swat Motorway beyond Chakdara?
The open motorway ends at Chakdara, and the second phase towards Fatehpur is still under construction. If you have broken down on the road beyond Chakdara, call us with your location and we tell you on the call how we can help.
