Trip Interruption & Travel Planning Assistance
ECP Service Agreements enhance your New Vehicle Roadside Assistance plan with additional features. If a component fails while you're more than 300 km from home, Trip Interruption coverage reimburses you for hotel, meals, and transportation fees, up to $300.
