When you sign the Hertz Rental Agreement, you automatically receive our limited liability, which is stipulated on the reverse side of the Rental Agreement.

- Hertz's liability protection is included in the rates.

- Hertz's liability protection is primary. Your car insurance would not become involved until the limits of Hertz's liability have been reached.
- Hertz's liability protection applies to all authorized drivers of the Hertz vehicle.

Any physical damage to the Hertz vehicle is the sole responsibility of the renter, regardless of fault, unless "Loss Damage Waiver (LDW)" is purchased. If you purchase LDW, you will not be responsible for loss or damage to the Hertz vehicle except to the extent of any applicable deductible.

Liability protection and LDW will be void, if violations listed on the Rental Agreement occur. Exclusion of protection can vary by location and should be verified at the rental counter.  

Liability protection up to a single limit of CAD1 Million per accident for bodily injury or property damage combined, is included.

Exclusion of coverage may occur when the vehicle is used as follows:

-To carry persons or property for hire.
-To propel or tow any vehicle, trailer or other subject in any race or contest
-To instruct an unlicensed person in vehicle operation
-For any illegal purposes.

Loss Damage Waiver (LDW)

LDW is an optional service which relieves your financial responsibility for the loss of, or damage to the Hertz vehicle resulting from any cause, except to the extent of any deductible, if applicable, provided the vehicle is used in accordance with the terms of the Rental Agreement. Cost of LDW may vary depending on location or vehicle type and is charged per each full or partial day of rental.

F.Y.I. - various credit card companies provide cardholders with varying degrees of damage protection provided you use their charge card for the rental and decline the optional LDW offered by Hertz at time of rental. The coverage and limits vary - be sure to check specifics with your credit card company prior to rental. Since you may choose to decline Hertz's coverage, you will be responsible to Hertz for the full value of any damage due to loss of or damage to the Hertz vehicle. If loss does occur, you must then submit a claim for reimbursement to your credit card company.

Adding LDW after vehicle is on rental:

You may not change the option once the rental has begun, without returning the vehicle and starting a new Rental Agreement. This will result in the contract being closed out and charges being assessed for the time you kept the vehicle (at least 1 day minimum), and a new rental contract will begin.
