You can talk to a National General customer service representative at 1 (800) 462-2123 to see if your personal policy will extend to your rental car.

National General Rental Car Coverage

Liability Insurance. National General liability insurance will usually extend to your rental as long as you are driving in the U.S. Your personal liability insurance will pay for others’ medical expenses and repairs to others’ property resulting from an accident you caused in your rental vehicle.

Collision and Comprehensive Insurance. If you have collision and comprehensive insurance with National General, this will typically cover any damage that occurs to the rental vehicle itself during your rental period. However, your National General collision and comprehensive coverage limits may not be high enough if you are renting a car with a much higher value than your personal vehicle and the car gets totaled.

Personal Injury Protection or MedPay. If you have personal injury protection (PIP) or MedPay through your personal auto policy, medical expenses for you and your passengers will be covered even after a rental car accident. If you do not have either type of coverage, you can purchase personal accident insurance through the rental car company.

National General also offers rental car reimbursement coverage, which helps pay for the cost of a rental car while your personal vehicle is being repaired for a covered claim. If you add rental reimbursement to your policy, National General will pay about $25 to $60 toward the cost of your rental, up to 30 days. You select specific rental car reimbursement limits when you purchase the add-on. For example, if you choose $25 per day/$500 per loss as your rental reimbursement limits, National General will pay up to $25 per day, but no more than $500 per claim for your rental.
