So, you’re planning a vacation away from Jacksonville, FL and want to rent a car. That’s great! But one of the questions you may have is whether or not your auto insurance policy covers the rental car. Or should you buy the insurance offered by the rental company? Skyline Insurance LLC so that you know what to do when the rental agency tries to sell you additional insurance for your rental car.

Your Auto Insurance May Cover You 

The answer depends on your auto insurance policy and where you are renting the car. Most auto insurance policies automatically extend coverage to any vehicle you rent in the United States (not including Puerto Rico or other U.S. territories). This means that if something happens while you’re using it, your auto insurance will cover the cost of repairs or replacement. The information will be in your policy documentation but call us if you’re unsure. We’ll be happy to check your policy and answer your questions. 

If You Need Supplemental Coverage 

If your standard auto policy does not provide enough coverage for your rental car, it may be worth looking into supplemental coverage from the rental company. This additional coverage usually covers any additional costs associated with an accident or theft that may occur while driving a rental car. Another option is to adjust your policy through Skyline Insurance LLC. This way, you don’t have to worry about additional fees whenever you travel.
