About emergency EV charging

Running out of charge is stressful, especially on a highway shoulder, in a parking garage or late at night. ChargePatrol sends a mobile Level 3 DC fast charging unit to your exact location so you do not have to wait for a tow just to reach a plug.

A typical emergency visit adds roughly 25–50 miles of range, which is enough to reach a public fast charger or get home. Dispatch runs 24/7/365 and our average arrival time is under 45 minutes.

  3. 3

    A technician drives to you

    Average arrival is under 45 minutes. Keep your phone on so the technician can reach you.

  4. 4

    Service on site

    Mobile Level 3 DC fast charging adds about 25–50 miles of range, enough to reach a station or get home.

  5. 5

    Back on the road

Tell dispatch

  • Your location in California: address, exit, mile marker or cross-street
  • Year, make and model of your EV
  • Battery % and any warning on the dashboard
  • Garage level and height clearance, if inside

Stay safe while you wait

  • Hazard lights on; move off live lanes if the car still creeps
  • On a highway shoulder, wait behind the barrier if it is safe
  • Keep your phone charged and your line free for our call
  • In immediate danger, call 911 first

When towing is the better answer

If a warning light says the car should not be driven, or the car will not power on after a 12V boost, dispatch arranges EV-safe flatbed towing instead of charging.
