AL Assistance Membership (AL-turva -jäsenyys in Finnish) is the most comprehensive type of membership. Should your car or motorcycle tour suddenly be interrupted through breakdown, Autoliitto arranges help for you, takes care that you get to your destination and pays the costs of assistance and other services needed for the continuation of your journey within the range of this membership.
AL Assistance Membership is the only type of service which enables you to continue the interrupted journey, and is personally given to you, and not to the vehicle you use. By virtue of this it is easy and carefree to move on, since you do not ever have to think when changing from one vehicle to another what kinds of services you have at your disposal, or who meets the assisting costs occurred, if you will have a breakdown on your journey. You can e.g. during the morning have a drive by your car, then enjoy the freedom on your motorcycle in the afternoon and get a lift from your mate when going shopping in the evening. In all previous situations the services of AL Assistance Membership are at your disposal as well as at disposal of those travelling with you in the same vehicle. The assistance membership service is not only available in Finland, but in most of the other European countries, too.

AL Assistance membership is personal
AL Assistance Membership is personal. Thus you can in the morning come to the work by the car of your own, then go for a lunch getting a lift from your colleague in his car provided by the employer, and finally you can relax by having a motorcycle ride in the evening. For the weekend you can travel off with a family you are acquainted with, being a passenger in their mobile home. The services of AL Assistance Membership are automatically at your disposal and at disposal of those travelling with you in the same vehicle. It is sufficient that you are in the vehicle, which faces a breakdown.
