It’s normal to take a closer look at your expenses and reconsider services that may not seem immediately useful. In fact, many people who cancel their AAA Membership don’t realize just how much value they’re missing out on from benefits they rarely think about—like trip interruption insurance, identity theft monitoring or even DMV services that save time and stress.
At AAA, we understand that priorities shift, and we’re constantly working to enhance the protections, savings and everyday conveniences we offer our members. If you’re thinking about canceling your membership, we respect your decision—but before you go, let us help you uncover benefits you may not have used yet. You might be surprised at the value that’s already available to you. Or, if you’re sure it’s time to move on, we’re here to walk you through that, too—no pressure.

“I have roadside assistance through another provider (insurance company, auto manufacturer)”.
If your car insurance or vehicle’s manufacturer’s warranty comes with roadside assistance, that’s a good and useful thing! But keep in mind, you may sometimes be the passenger in a car with a friend, or rental car (coverage in taxis, limousines and other ride-sharing conveyances is excluded) that experiences a breakdown, flat tire, car lockout or road hazard. With AAA, you’re covered in any eligible vehicle, not just your own. This means that you can use your AAA Membership for roadside assistance even if you’re in someone else’s car.
“I don’t drive anymore.”
AAA Membership goes far beyond roadside assistance and car care, giving members more than 80,000 ways to save on home services, food delivery, travel, shopping, dining, entertainment, phone plans and personal services like eyeglasses and pet insurance. The average AAA Member saves up to $200 each year with discounts and rewards alone! What’s more, your AAA Membership covers you as a cyclist. So, if you ride a bike and it breaks down, AAA will pick you up and take you and your bike to wherever you need to go (the distance covered depends on your membership level).
Stay protected online with the free member benefit: ProtectMyID to give you peace of mind while you’re surfing or shopping on the web. Plus, AAA offers Career Assistance Services, so whether you’re in between jobs, considering a change or looking for a side hussle, you can find resources to help you during your next step on the career ladder.
“I don’t need AAA now, but if I do, I’ll just rejoin.”
Renewing AAA Membership is often more affordable than rejoining when you need service. That’s because roadside assistance that’s requested on the same calendar day you join is subject to a same-day service fee. This also applies to former members who renew beyond their grace period *renew after the membership expires.
“I use other travel discounts.”
There’s no doubt that travel discount programs have grown exponentially in recent years, with some making it easy to book and save on trips. But what protections do you have under those programs, and are the discounts as good as those you’d receive with Preferred AAA Travel Partners? With your AAA Membership, you get more than just great discounts, you get expert travel planning from knowledgeable agents, access to AAA Travel Insurance, member-exclusive passport services, and quick assistance obtaining International Driving Permits.
If you’ve decided you no longer need AAA’s 24/7 Roadside Assistance and thousands of exclusive member benefits, we’re here to help make the process as simple as possible. To cancel your membership, you may use any of the following methods:
If you’re looking to save a little money but don’t need all the benefits of your current AAA Membership plan, consider downgrading to a lower-level plan instead of leaving. The AAA Basic/Classic Membership provides roadside assistance, access to 80,000+ discounts, travel planning, car maintenance benefits and more for a little less than $7 per month. Your benefits include:
AAA Everyday is another lower-level membership plan that’s available in select states, and for less than $2 per month you get the same online deals, cash back offers and travel perks as Classic Members but without the additional fees tied to road service. What’s more, it’s fast and easy to modify your plan online or by phone by calling the number on the back of your membership card.
