If you wish to rent a car for your holidays, don’t forget to read the rental agreement carefully. In the event of an accident or theft, you may have to pay part of the costs. Which insurances will be involved? Is there a deductible? Can this excess be bought back? So many questions to ask yourself before getting behind the wheel.

 

The Civil Liability Coverage

 

Understand the insurances associated with the lease contract

 

Apart from civil liability insurance (which covers the insured for any damage they may cause to a third party) which is compulsory and systematically included in the rental contract, the insurances offered by the rental companies are very varied. This is why it is important to fully understand the rental contract that the lessor offers: the responsibilities involved for the lessee can vary considerably from one contract to another. Among the insurances (basic or optional), particular attention should be given to the amount of the deductible and the possible repurchase of the excess.

Multi-risk Insurance Pack with Deductible

 

What is a deductible?

The deductible is the amount that the renter has to pay in case of damage or theft of the car. The amount of the excess is fixed in the rental contract and can vary from a few hundred euros (or local currency) to

 

several thousand depending on the category of car. The amount of the deductibles displayed by the lessors is an important criterion for comparing the coverages offered. If, for example, the contract provides for an excess of €2,000 and your car is damaged by you, you will have to pay the repair costs, up to a maximum of €2,000, to the lessor. To avoid this risk, it would be to your advantage to take out an additional, optional cover providing for the repurchase of this excess.

 

The amount of the deductible varies according to the model of the vehicle and starts at 500 euros up to 2,000 euros.

The Smart Pack GANNOUCHI RENT A CAR +:

 

The Smart Pack GANNOUCHI RENT A CAR + allows the full repurchase of the excess with insurance included in the rental price of the car.

 

For a minimum amount, our Smart Pack allows you to travel without any hesitation and without having to pay in case of accident. Discover the price of the Smart Pack at the GANNOUCHI RENT A CAR agency. Without subscribing to the Smart Pack, an amount of 500 to 2,000 euros will be debited from your credit card as a guarantee to cover the deductible and any potential damage.

 

If the payment is made by debit card and you contract our Smart Pack, a fee of only 300 euros will be applied to your debit card as a guarantee deposit. This fee will be refunded to you at the end of the rental period within approximately 7 working days.

 

To benefit from the Gannouchi + Smart Pack, the tenant must be over 35 years old. The Smart Pack Gannouchi +does not cover damage to the top and underbody of the vehicle related to a personal item.

Benefits of Franchise Buyout

 

For a daily supplement (generally more than ten euros per day) or the purchase of “Protection Packs” marketed by the major worldwide rental companies, the tenant can in most contracts buy back the excess: this buy-back will cover the accident risk and/or the theft risk (please read your contract on this subject) and, depending on your contract, it will be partial or total: a partial buy-back reduces the portion of the excess that must be paid if an accident or theft has occurred (its amount is on average from 500 to 2,000 euros). A total buy-back allows the renter (or rather his insurer) to take full responsibility for the costs related to the damage or theft.

 

Be careful! If you rent for 15 days, the total repurchase of the excess can be very expensive! Be careful.

 

 

 

Special case of online brokers

 

More and more cars are being rented online from rental brokers. In the latter case, if the local rental company has not provided for the repurchase of the deductible but your broker proposes it in the online offer, it is the latter who will reimburse the full amount of the expenses, on your return and on presentation of supporting documents: police report, damage report issued by the rental company, proof of payment to the rental company, …

What is not covered by any insurance:

 

  • Damage to a third party or the rental vehicle due to negligence or improper conduct.
  • Loss of child seat.

Loss/damage/loss of keys, damage to the top and underbody of the vehicle related to personal effects. Also not covered are

 

  • Damage due to misfuelling and breaking/loss of the GPS, a flat battery, running out of fuel or locking the vehicle with the keys inside. Antennas, jacks, safety triangles and vests, windshield wipers, fuel cap, trunk trays, ashtray or any other fixed or moving part of the vehicle.
  • Damage to the vehicle’s engine due to negligence.
  • Theft of the vehicle with keys left in the ignition.
  • Any damage to the vehicle or persons due to driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
  • Fines levied for non-compliance with traffic laws when renting the vehicle are the sole responsibility of the driver. If you are sanctioned by a fine, administrative management fees will be applicable in Tunisia.
  • Gannouchi Rent a Car declines all responsibility if you do not show up one hour before the end of the contract.
  • Gannouchi Rent a Car declines all responsibility if you take a foreigner not mentioned on the contract.
  • Refueling with the wrong type of gasoline.
  • Loss/damage/theft of personal belongings.

Some credit cards include excess buy-back

 

Before taking out ” excess buy-back ” insurance, you should check whether this cover is included in your credit card contract. Visa Premier”, “American Express” or “Gold Mastercard” cardholders, for example, automatically benefit from a “rental vehicle” guarantee that provides this cover (up to two claims paid per calendar year), with certain conditions

vehicle exclusions (especially high-end vehicles), and limitation in duration (rentals of more than 31 days are, at Visa Premier, not covered by this guarantee). However, in this case, in the event of a claim, you must first pay the amount of the excess to the car rental company, then set up a file to be refunded by the card’s insurance.

Compulsory accident report

 

In the case of a possible accident, and whether at fault or not, registered in the multirisk insurance pack or Assuri Gannouchi+ pack, it is mandatory to fill out an amicable report that reproduces the cause of the accident, this report is always available in a blank copy in the glove compartment of the rental car. The mode of use and the way of filling in the report are written on the back of the report. In the worst case it is possible to contact our assistance service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Failure to submit this report to the agency, by loss, omission or whatever the cause, automatically implies the loss of all rights of the customer with the insurance and requires him to pay all repair costs.
