“Collision, loss or damage coverage

IMPORTANT: THIS COVERAGE DOES NOT PROVIDE BODILY INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE LIABILITY INSURANCE AND DOES NOT COMPLY WITH ANY FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY LAW OR ANY OTHER LAW MANDATING MOTOR VEHICLE COVERAGE.

When it applies

• The driver is authorized according to the rental car agreement; and
• You must provide us with all proper documentation and information to assess and process the claim.

What it covers

Please refer to your letter of confirmation to confirm your coverage and
limits in your plan.

Repair or replacement

The cost to repair or replace the car (whichever is less)

• repair costs include only reasonable and customary costs to repair the rental car and reasonable loss of use fees the owner of the rental car charges while it’s being repaired.
• replacement is the actual cash value of the rental car, minus its reasonable salvage value.
