Breakdown Recovery on the M-2

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-2 we cover the full route from Islamabad to Lahore, in both directions.

  • Islamabad to Lahore
  • 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-2

  • On the Salt Range descent between Kallar Kahar and Lilla, shift to a lower gear and let the engine hold your speed. Riding the brakes all the way down causes brake fade, especially in a loaded car.
  • Climbing the Salt Range towards Islamabad in summer heats the engine hard. Turn off the AC if the temperature gauge climbs, and stop on the hard shoulder before it reaches the red.
  • From December to February, dense fog often settles on the plains section between Pindi Bhattian and Lahore. Slow right down, keep a long gap, and check with Motorway Police on 130 whether sections are closed.
  • Never reverse on the motorway if you miss an interchange or service area. Carry on to the next exit, and if the car is failing, stop on the hard shoulder with hazards on and a warning triangle behind you.

Questions

Do you provide breakdown recovery on the whole M-2?

Yes, from Islamabad to Lahore 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.

My brakes started smelling and feeling soft near Kallar Kahar. What should I do?

Pull onto the hard shoulder as soon as it is safe, switch on hazards and let the brakes cool. Do not continue down the hill. Call us and we will check whether the car can be driven or needs a flatbed.
