Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver
The Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver benet provides
reimbursement for damages caused by theft or collision up to the
Actual Cash Value of most rented cars. The Auto Rental Collision
Damage Waiver acts as primary coverage and covers theft, damage,
valid loss-of-use charges imposed and substantiated by the auto
rental company, administrative fees, and reasonable and customary
towing charges (due to a covered theft or damage) to the nearest
qualied repair facility. The Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver
covers no other type of loss. For example, in the event of a collision
involving Your Rental Vehicle, damage to any other driver’s car,
the injury of anyone, or damage to anything is not covered. Rental
periods up to thirty-one (31) consecutive days are covered.
You are covered when Your name is embossed on an eligible card
issued in the United States, and You use Your credit card Account
and/or rewards programs associated with Your Account to initiate
and complete Your entire car rental transaction. Only You, as the
primary renter of the vehicle, and any additional drivers permitted
by the Rental Car Agreement are covered.
How Do You Use the Auto Rental Collision
Damage Waiver?
1. Use Your Account to initiate and complete Your entire
car rental transaction.
2.
During this transaction, review the Rental Car Agreement and
decline the rental company’s collision damage waiver (CDW/LDW)
option or a similar provision. Accepting this coverage will cancel out
Your benet. If the rental company insists that You purchase their
insurance or collision damage waiver, call the Benet Administrator
for assistance.
Before driving out of the lot, check the rental car for any prior
damage and bring any damage You identify to the attention of
the rental car company.
This benet is in eect during the time the rental car is in Your (or
an authorized driver’s) control, and terminates when the rental
company reassumes control of their vehicle.
This benet is available in the United States and most foreign
countries. Coverage is not available where precluded by law, or
where it’s in violation of the territory terms of the auto rental
agreement, or when prohibited by individual merchants. If you
have questions about where coverage applies, contact the Benet
Administrator before You travel.
What Vehicles Are Not Covered?
Certain vehicles are not covered by this benet, including: high value
motor vehicles, exotic and antique cars (cars over twenty (20) years
old or that have not been manufactured for ten (10) years or more),
cargo vans, vehicles with open cargo beds, trucks, (other than pick-
ups), motorcycles, mopeds, motorbikes, limousines, recreational
vehicles, and passenger vans with seating for more than nine (9)
people, including the driver (passenger vans with seating for nine (9)
or less, including the driver, are covered).
Examples of high value motor vehicles or exotic car brands not
covered are Alfa Romeo, Aston Martin, Bentley, Corvette, Ferrari,
Jaguar, Lamborghini, Lotus, Maserati, Maybach, McLaren, Porsche,
Rolls Royce, and Tesla; However, selected models of Audi, BMW,
Mercedes-Benz, Cadillac, Inniti, Land Rover, Lexus, Lincoln, and
Range Rover are covered.

the pair or set. In this case, before the claim can be nalized, the

insurance policies) has been exhausted. At that point, Purchase
Protection will cover the loss up to the amount charged to Your
Account, subject to the terms, exclusions, and limits of liability of
