Insurance is an essential part of any car hire in San Jose. Beware of cheaper prices for car rental in San Jose - they may not cover you for an accident.
All of the discount San Jose self drive prices here include insurance, with no hidden extras to pay in San Jose. Our rates for car hire in San Jose have the following protection included:
Loss Damage Waiver (LDW)
LDW is not insurance, it's a supplement you pay so the San Jose car rental company won't claim against you if your San Jose hire car is stolen or damaged during your visit to San Jose.
Supplemental Liability Insurance (SLI)
This increases third party liability insurance on your San Jose car hire package to $1 million. Some San Jose rental packages don't include SLI. Without paying in advance, the San Jose car rental office charge $14.99 per day!
Under or Uninsured Motorist Protection (UMP)
Because it isn't compulsory to have insurance to drive in the USA, the other party mightn't have cover if you have an accident in San Jose. UMP provides up to $1 million against injuries caused by drivers in San Jose without insurance. If you paid UMP in San Jose it would cost £5.99.
Emergency Assistance
All of our rental packages in San Jose include full breakdown assistance. If your hire car from San Jose breaks down, you can call a San Jose recovery company to get you back on road.
Deposit
When you collect your rental car in San Jose, you must provide a credit card as deposit. In San Jose, no money gets charged - details are held as security in case the vehicle is damaged during your San Jose fly-drive. Please note: cash is not acceptable as deposit for San Jose car hire.
