Abdul Kahar, 41, of Anthony Road, Alum Rock, appeared at Birmingham Crown Court on Monday where he was sentenced to 15 years.
After being raped and sexually assaulted in his vehicle, the teenager called emergency services from the car and was able to provide details of the defendant's registration.
The call handler asked her yes or no based questions to establish what was happening and to confirm her location, before she was found by the roadside in Druids Heath.
Kahar was later arrested at his address in Alum Rock.
Det Con Lauren Campbell praised the teenager for her bravery.
"I want to praise the brave actions of the girl and also praise the call handler for having the foresight to understand this was a call for help from someone who was vulnerable and in danger," she said.
