If you elect to purchase SLI, coverage will be provided to you and any authorized driver under an excess automobile policy issued to Canada Express Car Rentals. SLI provides protection for third party automobile claims for the difference between the minimum financial responsibility limits provided under paragraph 22 above and a maximum combined single limit of liability of $1,000,000 or $2,000,000 depending on the jurisdiction of rental for bodily injury, death or property damage for each accident. This coverage is provided under a policy of excess liability insurance more fully described in the available brochure and is subject to all of the conditions and limitations described in paragraph 22 above, except that notwithstanding anything contained in the Agreement, the terms of the policy will at all times control. SLI does not apply to liability for bodily injury or property damage arising out of any “prohibited use of the car” as described in paragraph 15 of the Agreement, all of which are exclusions to SLI. Other exclusions to SLI are listed in the SLI policy. You understand that you will be charged the rate per day for a full day even if you don’t have the car for the entire day.Disclosures Regarding Supplemental Liability Insurance In the State of Florida
What is Supplemental Liability Insurance (SLI)?
Canada Express Car Rentals has Supplemental Liability Insurance (SLI) available at all Florida locations. SLI is a special optional service offered by Canada Express Car Rentals when you rent a car from Canada Express Car Rentals. It’s an “Excess Automobile Liability Insurance Policy” that provides additional liability insurance, within specified limits, above the limits provided in the Agreement. SLI insures you, and authorized operators as defined in the Agreement against claims made by third parties against you, the customer, for bodily injury/death and property damage caused by the use or operation of a Canada Express Car Rentals rental car as permitted in the Agreement. SLI is a separate insurance policy issued to Canada Express Car Rentals by ACE American Insurance Company.
If you elect to accept SLI, you will pay an additional daily charge as shown on the Agreement. The purchase of SLI is not required in order to rent a car from Canada Express Car Rentals.
What are the coverage limits provided by SLI?
The SLI coverage limits equal the difference between the minimum financial responsibility limits, if any, provided under paragraph 22 of the Agreement and the SLI maximum combined single limit of liability of $1,000,000 or $2,000,000 depending on the jurisdiction of rental.
When and where does SLI coverage apply?
You and authorized operators are covered while driving the rental car within the Canada, but only if the car is rented and returned in the Canada. Coverage does not apply in Mexico & United States.
How do I report a claim?
If you are involved in an accident, you must complete an accident report and deliver it to the Canada Express Car Rentals rental location. In order to make a claim or give notice of a claim, send written notice to:
Canada Express Car Rentals Rent A Car System, Inc.
Attn: Claims
40 Regan Rd #16,
Brampton, ON L7A 1B3
How does SLI affect the application of your automobile or umbrella insurance policy?
Your personal insurance policy providing coverage on an owned automobile, or other personal policy, may provide additional coverage, and to that extent, SLI may provide a duplication of coverage.
Whether, at what point, and to what extent, your own policies apply can only be determined by your checking the terms of the policies themselves as these terms frequently vary. However, if SLI is accepted, the protection afforded by SLI, and the limits of protection under this Agreement, are primary to your own policies. This means that before your own policies would apply to pay a claim, the maximum combined single limit of liability of $1,000,000 or $2,000,000 protection afforded by the combination of SLI and financial responsibility limits under this Agreement limits would have to be exhausted. If you do not accept SLI, your insurance, if any, is primary as stated in this Agreement.
What exclusions apply to SLI?
The following highlights some of the exclusions that would preclude SLI. It is important that you read the rental document and the policy carefully for all exclusions.
• Any Prohibited Use of the Car as described in paragraph 15 of the Agreement
• Bodily injury to or Property Damage to any Insured; nor, to the extent permitted by law in the state where the rental document is signed at time of rental/where the car is rented, to Bodily Injury or Property Damage to any person who is related to any Insured by blood, marriage or adoption and residing in the same household.
• “Uninsured Motorist”/”Underinsured Motorist” coverage are not provided by the policy except in states where mandated by law up to maximum amount of $100,000 or in such amounts as mandated by law
• “No Fault” and other supplemental or optional coverages are not provided by the policy
• Punitive or exemplary damages to the extent permitted by law
