HERTZ RENT A CAR: Coverage Products
» Liability Insurance Supplement (LIS):
Liability Insurance Supplement (LIS) is primary protection, which provides the first USD 1,000,000.00 of combined bodily injury and/or property damage protection for each occurrence. (Note - Hawaii has an extended LIS option of USD 2,000,000.00).

LIS also includes Uninsured/ Underinsured Motorists Coverage of up to USD 100,000.00 per occurrence for combined bodily injury and/or property damage claims. (Exception: In New York, LIS includes up to USD 100,000.00 per person/USD 300,000.00 per accident Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage. Recoveries under any per accident limit are subject to the per person limit. In Vermont, LIS includes up to USD 50,000.00 per person/USD 100,000.00 per accident Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage. Recoveries under any per accident limit are subject to the per person limit.).

LIS provides coverage for you and other authorized operators of your rental vehicle for third party claims.
» Loss Damage Waiver (LDW):
In most states, in the event of any other loss or damage to the car, regardless of fault, your financial responsibility extends to the full value of the car at the time of rental, less its salvage value, plus expenses for towing, storage impound fees, an administrative fee and a reasonable charge for loss of use. If your responsibility differs in the state in which you rent, it will be stated in Paragraph 4, of the Rental Agreement. In California, in the event of any loss or damage to the car regardless of fault, your financial responsibility will in no event exceed the fair market value, plus actual charges for towing, storage, impound fees, and an administrative fee. In California and Nevada, your responsibility for loss or damage to the car from vandalism unrelated to theft will not exceed USD 500.00 and you are not responsible for theft, regardless of purchasing LDW, unless the theft results from your fault. In Illinois, your responsibility for loss or damage for any cause other than theft is limited to USD 14,000.00 Loss or damage related to theft is limited to USD 2,000.00, unless the theft results from your fault. In New York, your financial responsibility shall not exceed (i) the actual and reasonable costs that Hertz incurs to repair the car, including costs for towing, storage and impound fees or that Hertz would have incurred if the car was repaired or (ii) the fair market value of the car immediately before the damages occurred, as determined by the applicable market for the retailsale of the car less disposal proceeds. Your responsibility for theft of the car shall not exceed the reasonable costs incurred by Hertz for loss due to theft up to its fair market value, if it is established that you or any authorized operator failed to exercise reasonable care or aided or abetted in the theft.

Adding LDW after car is on rental:
You may not change the option once the rental has begun, without returning the car and starting a new rental agreement. This will result in the contract being closed out and charges being assessed for the time the vehicle is kept at least 1-day minimum, and a new rental contract will begin.

Cancellation of LDW - New York rentals only:
On New York rentals only, LDW may be cancelled at no charge, within 24 hours of its purchase provided the renter (i) has rented the car for 2 or more days; (ii) appears in person at any Hertz rental location with the car, which shall be subject to inspection.
» Personal Accident Insurance (PAI):

Total benefits for any one accident are limited to USD 225,000.00 and are payable in addition to any other coverage for which you or your passengers are eligible. However, your benefits provided by other coverage may be affected by the PAI benefits. Rentals originating in the State of Mississippi do not have a single accident limit of USD 225,000.00.

If this coverage is accepted, the benefits for you apply to all accidental injuries during your rental period, regardless of whether you are actually in the car. Your passengers are also covered, but only for incidents occurring while they occupy the Hertz rental car.
» Personal Effects Coverage (PEC):
Personal Effects Coverage (PEC), offered in combination with PAI, is an option that insures against risk of loss or damage to help protect your personal belongings while renting from Hertz. By electing PEC you will be insured throughout the entire rental period. PEC is insurance protection and pays in addition to any other policy you may have (such as a Homeowner’s policy). However, your benefits provided by other coverage may be affected by the PEC benefit. PEC insurance coverage includes those personal effects owned by you and those members of your immediate family traveling with you during the rental period who are permanent residents of your household. PEC does not extend to non-family members traveling with you.

The maximum coverage per person is USD 600.00 with the maximum coverage for all claims during any rental limited to USD 1800.00, no deductible (Exception – In New York, maximum coverage is USD 500.00 per person with a maximum coverage for all claims during any rental limited to USD 1,500.00)..
» Additional Authorized Operators (AAO):
- Individuals not automatically covered on the Rental Agreement as Authorized Operators noted above may be signed on as an "Additional Authorized Operator" (AAO). AAO's must be present and may be signed on to the rental agreement at the time of rental or during the rental at any US corporate location.

- Renter and each AAO must be present to sign Rental Agreement, present an acceptable credit card or debit card (if renting city accepts debit cards) in their own name, or a current round-trip ticket (air, train or bus), show valid driver's license, and must be a minimum of 21 years of age. For those 21 through 24 the location's age differential will apply.

Additional Authorized Operators Fees.
» Refueling Options (FPO):
Hertz provides you with a full tank of fuel when you collect your vehicle and options are available for replacing the fuel you use.
• Fuel Purchase Option (FPO) Selected locations allow you to pre-purchase a tank of fuel at a discounted/competitive price, at the start of rental.
• Fuel Service Charge (FSC) If you don’t choose our Fuel Purchase Option, you may return the vehicle with less than a full tank of fuel and Hertz will refuel for you. This charge will be added to the cost of the rental (subject to availability).
» Toll Pass Service:
The program eliminates the need for travelers to carry change or wait in long cash payment lines at toll plazas and allows renters to drive through electronic toll payment lanes. Drive thru and take the 'fast' lane. This program is offered in many states.
