I was in a car accident and my insurance will not provide a rental car even though i have full coverage can they do that?
You only get a rental if your policy specifies that you chose to pay extra to have rental car coverage. Having collision coverage is not the same thing as having rental. Collision coverage just covers the repairs to your vehicle. If you are not at fault for the accident, the other person's insurance will provide you with a rental car.

If the other party is injured, they will use their Uninsured Motorist Coverage. The insurance company will seek reimbursement from you for the injuries as well.If you are not at fault, you could still file a claim against the other party's insurance. In some states however, there is a No Pay, No Play statute. This allows you to recover for your economic damages only. You could not file a claim for Bodily Injury.
