Frequently asked questions
Do I need to know what caused the breakdown?
No. Describe what you notice; in Daba, “Not sure” is a possible choice. The professional assesses on site.
How much does assistance cost?
Agree on the price with the professional. It depends on the problem, vehicle, access and any transport distance.
Do I need to know the destination garage?
No. Start by describing the breakdown and your location. If towing is needed, add the destination when you know it.
What if no professional is available?
Daba checks availability before sending. If nobody is available in your area for this service, it tells you: you can try again a few minutes later or message support on WhatsApp.
