AAA Western and Central New York is pleased to announce the expansion of its Approved Auto Repair (AAR) program with the addition of a partner specializing in RV services and more. Bison Fleet and Tire Specialists, located at 1615 William St. in Buffalo, has more than 25 years of experience servicing RVs, trucks, trailers, food trucks, buses, campers, and cars.

This is a timely addition to AAA’s AAR network with Memorial Day travel getting underway. The holiday serves as the kickoff to the summer travel season that will be popular with campers and more. AAA Western and Central New York has been fielding numerous calls from travelers looking for TripTiks, information on camping, along with RV services.

Bison Fleet’s mission statement says: “We Are Your Last Stop Shop.” They have all the tools and equipment to get the job done at one location, giving AAA members the fastest turnaround possible. With 17 lifts and 36 bays, Bison’s certified technicians can repair anything from routine maintenance to extreme vehicle modifications with a complete body shop, custom outfitters, tires, glass, transmission repairs, and replacements.

Since May 2020, purchases and rentals of RVs in the U.S. have been booming, especially among first-time buyers, according to RVshare. More than half of travelers consider RV travel more appealing than before the pandemic.

Before heading out on an RV adventure, travelers should add a AAA RV Rider, an optional benefit, to their AAA Plus or AAA Premier membership. The AAA RV Rider extends roadside assistance benefits to recreational vehicles for all services including, motorcycles, all motor homes, pickup trucks with campers, travel trailers, and 5th wheel travel trailers. RV calls are taken from the 4 calls allotted to AAA Plus or AAA Premier Membership. AAA offers specialized RV insurance for our customers who own motorhomes, travel trailers, and more.

Travelers planning a road trip can use AAA services to map their route, find attractions, and more at AAA.com.
