What does transportation expense (rental reimbursement) coverage cover?

Transportation expense (rental reimbursement) coverage is designed to provide financial assistance for costs incurred while the insured vehicle is out of commission due to damage from a covered event, such as an accident or theft. When the primary vehicle is inoperable and requires repairs, this coverage allows the insured to rent a vehicle so they can continue their daily activities without significant disruption.

This type of coverage typically has limits on the amount reimbursed per day and for the total duration of the rental. As such, it specifically focuses on the scenario where the insured's vehicle cannot be used, highlighting its importance in providing a temporary solution to transportation needs during the vehicle’s repair process. In summary, this coverage ensures that while the insured vehicle is being fixed, individuals have access to an alternative means of transportation.
