Breakdown Recovery on the N-5

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 N-5 we cover the full route from Karachi to Torkham, in both directions.

  • Karachi to Torkham
  • 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 N-5

  • The N-5 carries mixed traffic: tractor-trolleys, donkey carts, motorcycles and buses share the road with fast cars. Expect slow vehicles without lights after dark and keep your speed down through towns.
  • Unlike a motorway, the N-5 often has no proper hard shoulder. If you break down, get as far off the road as you can, switch on hazards and place a warning triangle well behind the car.
  • Fog is common on the Punjab section in winter. Slow down, use low beams and avoid overtaking when you cannot see oncoming traffic.
  • In the monsoon, low-lying stretches can flood. Do not drive into water of unknown depth; water in the engine can cause serious damage.

Questions

Do you provide breakdown recovery on the whole N-5?

Yes, from Karachi to Torkham 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 whole N-5?

We cover the N-5 across Sindh, Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Share your nearest town or landmark and WhatsApp location, and we give you a live ETA on the call.
