Best Answer

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.

How long does insurance company have to provide a rental car after a car accident?

Most insurance companies do not provide rental cars, they provide reimbursement. It also has to be a noted coverage in your policy. For example, say an insurer provides a rental car at $30/day up to 30 days with a cap of $900. You would have to come up with the money upfront, then your insurance company would ask for copies of the rental contract and fees that were paid. They would then send you a check for what you paid.

Is it a state law in Florida that your insurance company must provide a rental car after an accidentif you have full coverage insurance and hit a deer?

No. By "full coverage," I assume you mean you have comprehensive and collision coverage. This does not include rental. You have to buy a special endorsement on your policy to get rental. Hitting a deer is a comprehensive claim and if you have rental, you will get a rental if the car is non-drivable or when it is in the shops for the repairs. If you did not buy rental, the insurance company does not have to pay. Check your coverages.

Do I have to buy extra car insurance if I rent from EZ car rental?

If you already have full coverage auto insurance, there is no need to purchase additional insurance for your rental car. The only event where you would need the insurance from EZ Car Rental, was if you were to get into an accident, they would cover the cost of the time lost for the rental. If you don't purchase their insurance and get into an accident, you will have to pay for the days they are out money for not being able to rent the car out.

Can I use the auto insurance coverage on my for rental car insurance?

Absolutely, your personal insurance can transfer the coverage you have on your personal policy to the rental car thus saving you a good bit of money by not purchasing the coverage from the rental company. But before you do this speak with your agent and make sure your policy will transfer coverage to the rental car and that it has comprehensive and collission coverage to transfer. Many company offer transfer of coverage to the rental car but also there are many policies that do not provide this transfer of coverage. Make sure you have the correct kind. If there is any question, please go ahead and purchase the coverage offered by the rental company. I hope this is of assistance.
