Third-party liability

The rate includes mandatory third-party liability coverage up to a maximum of ARS $208,000,000. Hertz Argentina provides the liability insurance limits set by law, as stated in the rental agreement at the time it is signed.

  • Base: The basic rate includes coverage with a deductible payable by the customer, which varies by vehicle category. It includes coverage with a deductible payable by the renter, up to the applicable amount in the event of collision damage, theft, robbery and/or rollover (see the deductible and guarantee table) according to the booked category. Under the basic rate, the renter is liable for any damage, theft, robbery, rollover and/or missing items up to those amounts.
  • Plus Cover: Includes the base coverage and removes the collision deductible, meaning the customer pays nothing in cases of collision and windshield breakage.
  • Smart Cover: Includes the Plus coverage and removes the deductible for collision, rollover, damage to locks and glass, attempted theft damage and airbag deployment. It also reduces the credit card hold by 50% within Argentina. It is the most complete coverage we offer and the one we recommend to all our customers.
  • Tires Cover: Coverage that reduces the deductible for tire damage and blowouts by 100%. It is an add-on to SMART or PLUS.

Protection for partial or total theft / robbery / loss

  • Includes a deductible payable by the customer, who must pay up to its full amount for each category, under the terms of the rental agreement.

Protection against collision damage

  • Collision insurance is included in the rate with a deductible payable by the customer. Additional coverages can be requested that remove this deductible only.

Guarantees

  • As a guarantee for the rental, an authorization is held on the credit card. The card must be issued by a traditional bank and presented physically when picking up the vehicle. Digital, virtual, rechargeable or dynamic-code cards are not accepted, nor are credit cards issued by virtual or non-bank institutions.
  • This authorization must be available when picking up the vehicle. Guarantee authorizations are made in person with the cardholder at any Hertz branch, and the cardholder must sign the rental agreement. This amount may be updated according to the values in force at pick-up.

Rollover protection

  • Included in the rate; the customer must pay up to the full deductible set for each category, under the terms of the rental agreement. (Except where Smart Cover has been purchased).

Notes


  • Guarantees and deductibles are updated at vehicle pick-up according to the values then in force.
  • In the event of weather-related damage (hail, flooding, etc.) the customer must pay up to the established deductible. Additional coverages do not include these events.
  • Additional coverages are not available at the San Luis, Río Cuarto and La Rioja branches. For rentals of airbag-equipped vehicles, if the airbags deploy, the customer must pay for them at replacement price (except where SMART coverage has been purchased).
  • Global insurance coverage policies are always subject to change according to the amounts set by the Insurance Superintendency regulations. Please verify at the time of rental.
