I would list the different "warranties" they might have that offer free towing or roadside service and put a list
together. They can then take list and create a laminated card for the glove box or even visor listing different warranties and terms. Could include:
AAA
Auto Insurance Policy
Original Auto Warranty
Credit Cards
etc.
