Section 3
Cruise America maintains liability protection coverages on all its rental vehicles to a minimum of $10,000,000 (USD) against claims of bodily injury and property damage brought against the company as a result of the operation or use of its vehicles. This covers Cruise America as a company only.
Cruise Canada maintains liability protection coverages on all its rental vehicles to a minimum of $10,000,000 (CDN) against claims of bodily injury and property damage brought against the company as a result of the operation or use of its vehicles. This covers Cruise America as a company only.
In both the United States and Canada, the company provides Auto Liability coverage on a secondary basis for bodily injury, property damage and personal injury protection (PIP) as required by the financial responsibility laws of the state or province in which an accident may occur, for claims made against authorized drivers (PIP is not valid with motorcycles rentals). As is normal, the liability coverage is voided if the rental vehicle is not operated safely in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and in compliance with all terms and conditions of the Rental Agreement. Any use of the vehicle as prohibited by the Contract will breach the Contract; will void any limitation of responsibility under the Contract and make the renter fully responsible for consequential damages and costs resulting from that breach. To the extent permitted by law, SLI, PIP and Liability Coverage will also be void.
In addition, all rentals INCLUDE Supplemental Liability Insurance providing excess liability insurance up to $1,000,000.
As a result of including insurance in the pre-paid rate the transaction is simplified and vastly improved. Maximum responsibility for repair is up to only $1000 for vehicle loss or damage per occurrence, this being provided the renter and authorised drivers abide by the Terms & Conditions of The Rental Agreement, report promptly in case of an accident or vehicle damage, and avoid prohibited uses. As is normal, any use of the vehicle as prohibited by the Contract will breach the Contract; will void any limitation of responsibility under the Contract and make the renter fully responsible for consequential damages and costs resulting from that breach.
In the event of an accident, customer must notify Cruise America within 24 hours, make a full report in writing and provide a Police report. If a mechanical breakdown should occur, Cruise America provides a 24-hour toll-free Travellers Assistance line (800 334 4110). Travellers Assistance will arrange for a mechanical check at the nearest available service station within their working hours. Small repairs up to $75 will be refunded on production of a receipt and without reference but those in excess of $75 require authorization by phone from Travellers Assistance (800-334-4110). Tools for vehicle repair are not provided since customers are not authorized to make repairs. Customer expenses for authorized repair, oil change, etc. will be reimbursed upon presentation of receipts.
