FAQs — Hybrid recovery in Curdworth
Accident hybrid recovery in Curdworth - HV safe?
Yes - we check HV isolation before loading. If we cannot confirm it we escalate to fire service.
Can you dolly-tow a hybrid in Curdworth?
No - hybrids get flatbedded with all four wheels lifted. Anything else risks damage to the electric motor and transaxle.
Plug-in hybrid with a stuck charge cable in Curdworth?
Common - usually a manual release inside the boot or a fuse pull. We know the location on most models and can release before loading.
Do you charge more for a hybrid than a petrol car in Curdworth?
Same rate as the equivalent petrol - it is the same flatbed doing the same job.
