If I go on vacation and rent a vehicle, will my Arizona auto policy provide coverage while I am driving the rental vehicle or must I purchase coverage from the rental company?
If you vacation within the United States (and in most cases Canada), for liability coverage, the policy carried by the rental company will be primary (pay first), and your policy will be excess (pay second) if the rental company’s limits are not enough to pay for the injuries or property damages you cause. For physical damage to the rental vehicle, some companies insurance allow the broadest coverages you have under your comprehensive and collisions coverages to apply to the rental vehicle, subject to the deductible stated in your policy. Before renting the vehicle, you should check with your insurer or insurance agent or producer to determine if your coverage applies to the rental vehicle.
