If I am involved in an accident, does my coverage allow me to get a rental car?

We don't show you as a CarInsurance.com customer.
It will depend upon the types of coverages and the terms of your policy if your auto insurance will cover you having a rental car for the time it takes to get your vehicle repaired.

Normally you would have needed to purchase rental vehicle coverage in order for your insurance company to provide you with a rental car allowance or reimbursement.

With optional coverages such as rental vehicle coverage or rental reimbursement (RREIM) coverage you would be paid a set daily amount for a rental car if your car is stolen or is being repaired because of damage covered by your policy.

So to find out if your coverages allow you the use of a rental car, which would be paid for by your insurance company, read over the terms of your policy and/or ask your agent since he is aware of the specifics of your policy and coverages.

If you are shopping for auto insurance including optional coverages for rental car reimbursement come to use for a quick quote.
