11. Do not assume that Credit Card Coverage will be 100%

Even if your major credit card delivers significant coverage when it comes to your rental car, there is a big chance that the company may not deliver full coverage for your rental. Since the intent of most credit card companies is to provide customers with secondary coverage, they will likely cover the cost of damage, or fees such as loss of use of the rental, but not both. Do not let yourself get stuck on the short side of a potentially costly repair bill when it comes to car rental insurance. The best action is to call your credit card company to confirm your coverage before departing with your car rental on the scheduled day.
