Rental Car Rules After a Colorado Accident Claim

Rental coverage can be restricted by daily caps, duration limits, and liability timing. Plan reimbursement early.

Key Steps

  • Confirm daily rental cap and maximum duration in writing.
  • Keep receipts and mileage/use records.
  • Coordinate extensions before coverage expires.

Rental Coverage Limits

Policies often cap rental reimbursement by daily and total maximum amounts.

Repairs, total-loss decisions, and liability delays can outlast rental limits if not managed early.

Avoiding Out-of-Pocket Surprises

Select rental classes aligned with policy limits and request pre-approval for extensions.

Keep communication documented when delays are outside your control.
