Rental Reimbursement Coverage

Rental reimbursement helps with a temporary vehicle while your own vehicle is being repaired after a covered loss.

How this coverage works

How the limits work

Rental reimbursement is usually written as a daily amount with an overall maximum, such as a per-day limit for a set number of days. If repairs run long or the rental class is more expensive, the difference is yours.

The coverage responds only when a covered physical damage claim is in play. A mechanical breakdown is not a covered loss.

Details to review

  • Daily and total limits explained
  • Applies only to covered claims
  • Coordinates with repair timelines
  • Not the same as rental car liability

What the coverage includes

Coverage names, terms, and availability vary by insurance carrier and state. These descriptions are educational and are not a policy contract.

Who this is generally written for

Eligibility is set by each insurance carrier and can differ by state. Nothing here is a guarantee of eligibility or coverage.

Commonly a good fit

  • Vehicles carrying collision or comprehensive coverage

Worth a conversation first

  • Liability-only policies, where the endorsement is usually not available

Availability varies by state

No-fault states
Personal injury protection replaces or supplements medical payments and changes how injury claims are handled.
FR-44 states
A small number of states use FR-44 filings, which generally require higher liability limits than SR-22 filings.
Border states
Travel into Mexico requires a separate policy issued by an insurance carrier authorized in Mexico.
