Let us help you build the perfect roadside emergency kit

  • A spare tire (that you regularly check for inflation levels and overall condition), a lug wrench for the lug nuts, and a jack
  • A can of Fix-A-Flat as a backup (be sure to get the non-explosive kind)
  • A portable air pump to reinflate tires that are low
  • A towing strap or rope to remove yourself from tricky situations
  • A car escape tool - this consists of a window breaker and seatbelt cutter, and you should keep it in your center console for easy access
  • A set of quality jumper cables and a portable battery charger
  • Extra oil, coolant, and windshield wiper fluid
  • Spare fuses and light bulbs in case anything burns out
  • Roadside reflective signs so other drivers can be made aware of your car's presence when you're pulled over
  • A flashlight with an extra set of batteries
  • Duct tape
  • A small tool kit or a multi-purpose tool
  • Towels, paper towels, or baby wipes for cleanup
