Enterprise Roadside Assistance: Jump Starts, Coverage & Alternatives
Use the roadside number on your rental agreement or key tag. Basic mechanical issues are generally handled by Enterprise. Driver-caused issues such as a battery drained by lights left on may be charged unless you bought roadside protection. Just Jump USA® is a separate mobile battery service with no membership. Jump starts are free in most active service areas when a technician is available; if your Enterprise plan limits calls, requesting help separately may leave a benefit available for a future tow or other covered need. Check your terms.

Could your jump start be free?
Check whether Just Jump USA® serves your area. Jump starts are free in most active service areas when a technician is available; requesting help does not guarantee dispatch. Where a jump start is not free, we'll confirm any charge before service. If you're driving a rental, check your rental agreement and contact the rental company before arranging outside service.
Could a jump start preserve a roadside call?
Some roadside plans limit service calls; others differ by plan, vehicle, or coverage period. If a jump start would use one of your calls, you may prefer to keep that benefit for a future tow or other covered emergency. First check your own terms. For a dead battery, consider a safe DIY jump or a Just Jump USA® jump start, free in most active service areas when a technician is available.
Check your rental agreement first: a fee for a jump start is avoidable if you bought protection or can get the rental company's own help.
A free jump start depends on your area and technician availability; it does not replace Enterprise for towing, lockouts or other roadside needs.
Enterprise vs. Just Jump USA®
Help for a rental vehicle is arranged through the rental company. Some causes, such as a battery drained by lights left on, may be billed unless you bought an optional roadside protection product.

Enterprise roadside questions
How do I contact Enterprise roadside?
Use the roadside number on your rental agreement or key tag.
Verified Enterprise phone: 1-800-307-6666
Does Enterprise roadside cover jump starts?
Contact Enterprise before letting anyone work on a rental. Unauthorized service can create problems under your agreement.
Will a jump start use one of my Enterprise roadside calls?
It depends on your specific Enterprise terms and how you request help. Check your plan, warranty or rental agreement for limits. A separate Just Jump USA® request does not use a Enterprise roadside call; jump starts are free in most active Just Jump USA® areas when a technician is available.
Should I call a third party to jump my rental car?
Call the rental company first. Your agreement may require them to arrange service.
Can I use Just Jump USA® instead of Enterprise for a jump start?
Yes — you never have to go through Enterprise for a jump start. Just Jump USA® is a fully independent mobile battery service with no membership, and jump starts are free in most active service areas when a technician is available. Requesting directly keeps your Enterprise benefit untouched for a future tow or other covered need.
Can Enterprise send Just Jump USA® to replace my battery?
Possibly. If your Enterprise plan lets you choose a preferred provider, or covers the cost of a new battery, you can ask Enterprise to dispatch or reimburse Just Jump USA® for the replacement. Approval is Enterprise's decision — confirm with them first, and note that Just Jump USA® battery replacement is a separate paid service, with any charge always confirmed before work begins.
