I used Honda Assist twice in my MK 2, and was very happy with the service. First time was on the road, near home, when the engine just died and would not restart. AA man scratched his head as system would not talk to him, and then disconnected and reconnected the battery (always a good thing to try with a computer!) and the problem disappeared. AA then followed me to nearest dealer for a diagnostic check, which found nothing wrong. Second time was at home when I had left the inside light on and battery was dead. AA checked battery (6 years old) and advised a new one, which he then fitted and just charged me for the battery (£70). I do not have separate breakdown cover, having left RAC when I bought the Jazz.
