The Customer Service Vehicle (CSV) has also been designed to assist in providing transport for up to 3 (three) people should they be required to leave the breakdown site.

Under Secure Assistance, AGA will continue to coordinate and monitor the breakdown situation between the customer, dealer and other relevant parties and decide the best mode of assistance ranging from Customer Service Vehicle (CSV) to flat bed vehicle.
