Despite its wide range of services, AAA's main and well-known service is its auto emergency rescue. According to statistics at the end of 2003, AAAs in the United States and Canada received 31.1 million rescues** throughout the year, of which all aspects of automobile accidents were involved, and the rates were as follows: flat tires, battery replacement and charging services accounted for 18%, refueling, towing, and ignition.

AAA members are indeed "value for money", first of all, whether members buy a new car or use an old car, or take a friend's free ride, no matter whose car it is, they can enjoy the rights of membership, that is to say, AAA "recognize people but not cars", this provision is attractive to many people.

AAA regularly publishes traffic maps and brochures with updated information, and members can request AAA to arrange their itinerary before traveling, including the distance between departure and destination, the required travel time, gas stations, restaurant locations, and places of interest. AAA also provides members with various discount messages such as car rentals and hotels, as well as camping information, including complete camping introductions, such as facilities, fees, etc. In addition, there are also reservation services such as air tickets, accommodation, ferries, buses, etc., as well as various ** air tickets.

Almost everything that could happen as soon as the car drove out of the door, AAA took care of it all.

The reporter joined the AAA club in Houston three years ago, and because the car was brand new at the time, there were few problems that needed AAA's help, but before each trip, the reporter had to go to AAA to ask for a lot of free maps and city information. Now, AAA also has agreements with many hotels, car rental companies and even shops to offer discounts to members. The reporter saw in some hotels that AAA members enjoy a lot of discounts, and the difference can reach dozens of dollars in many cases.

What's more, when the reporter visited the Houston Space Center, he found that a coffee shop inside also discounted AAA members. In addition, some car rental companies also offer discounts for AAA members.

The American Automobile Association was founded in 1902, and over the past 100 years, the scope and variety of AAA services have continued to expand, such as the first publication of the national highway traffic map in 1905; In 1917, a national guide to hotels was published; In 1920, a safe driving school was established; In 1947, as a separate entity, it focused on the study of automobile safety and road safety.

On March 4, 1902, nine automobile clubs from all over the United States united in Chicago to form the American Automobile Association (AAA) to improve the reliability of automobiles, strive to build better highways, and urge Congress to pass a uniform traffic law. Members come from wealthy and influential regions.

Now, AAA's services have been extended to provide members with discounts on car loans, insurance, car rentals, etc. In addition, AAA also participates in the evaluation of five-star hotels and restaurants, and is one of the authoritative evaluation bodies for hotels and restaurants in the United States, which evaluates nearly 10,000 hotels and hotels in the United States, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean every year, and only one of them can be listed on the "five-star" list. According to reports, there are only 13 five-star restaurants and restaurants rated by AAA this year.
