If you get a flat, CHANGE your tire. All necessary tools and the spare are in the vehicle.

Check your tire pressure monthly. This is a simple matter of using an air gauge and placing it on the valve stem. All 4 tires can be done in about 2 minutes.

Check your oil monthly.

Modern vehicles with these simple precautions will have no problem making between oil changes, when the mechanic can inspect the vehicle in more detail.

The above steps are basic car owner responsibilities. If you cannot change a tire then you should learn how to avoid the above mentioned 2 hour wait for a wrecker to do such a simple task.

If car break down in the middle of road, don't Panic at all. On the emergency light and try to start,if don't then try to go on side parking. You can also Call 999 If you are disturbing the road. Park car at suitable place even Rounabout have a space for emergency parking. Call to your friend or technician or Break down carriage (Necessary to keep Numbers)

One Break Down service provider is

BIN ESSA BREAK DOWN having more than 25 vehicals. One of its mobile number is 5835034 Mudho (Name of Driver) within doha they charged 70QR.

Once i used that service , it takes 2 hours to reach the Break down vehical
