Rental Reimbursement Coverage
Insurance Glossary
Optional auto coverage that pays for a rental car or other transportation while a covered vehicle is being repaired after a claim. It is normally written as a daily allowance with a maximum number of days or a total cap, so a long repair can outlast the coverage. It applies only when the vehicle is out of service because of a covered loss, not for routine maintenance or mechanical breakdown.
