M69 Mobile Tyre Fitting & Breakdown Recovery
Stuck on the M69 between Coventry and Leicester? Road Buddy covers the whole M69 for mobile tyres, recovery and jump starts — useful on a motorway with no service area.
If you are stopped in a live lane or in immediate danger, call 999 first.
Motorway attendance and any roadside work depend on safe access and your exact location. We will not fit tyres or work beside live traffic — the vehicle may need to be recovered to a suitable safe location before work can be completed.
The M69 is a short motorway, around 16 miles long, linking the M6 at J2 north-east of Coventry with the M1 at J21 on the edge of Leicester. It has only three numbered junctions and no motorway service area, so there is nowhere to pull in if something goes wrong.
That makes it especially important to know your nearest junction. We cover the whole of the M69, with our Coventry, Hinckley and Leicester coverage either side of it.
M69 Mobile Tyre Fitting
If you get a flat on the M69, the safest option is usually to leave at J1 (Hinckley) or J2 and stop somewhere off the motorway. We bring a tyre in your size and fit it there. Send a photo of the tyre size so we can check stock before we set off.
Mobile tyre fitter near M69 J1 (Hinckley)
J1 meets the A5 at Hinckley, close to the Leicestershire and Warwickshire border. It is the easiest place to leave the motorway on the Coventry side and get to a safe place to wait.
M69 Breakdown Recovery
M69 breakdown recovery takes you off the motorway to home, a garage or a safe place. Typical destinations are Coventry, Hinckley, Nuneaton and Leicester, but you choose where it goes and we quote for that before setting off.

M69 Car Recovery & Vehicle Recovery
Cars and light vehicles that cannot be driven — non-starters, collision damage, lost drive or wheel damage — can be loaded and recovered. We do not handle HGVs.
M69 Emergency Tyre Replacement
If the tyre is beyond repair, we replace it. With no services on the M69, many emergency tyre call-outs mean meeting you just off J1 or J2, or recovering the car a short distance first.
M69 Roadside Assistance
On the M69 our roadside assistance covers jump starts, tyre replacement and puncture repair where appropriate, with recovery if it cannot be fixed safely. No diagnostics, fuel delivery or wrong fuel work.
M69 Jump Start & Flat Battery Help
If your car will not restart after stopping near Hinckley or Fosse Park, we can bring a jump pack and get most cars and small vans started. We can fit a replacement battery if needed and we have the right one.
