| If your car is with the body shop on an insurance covered repair for longer than the rental car coverage on your insurance, what are the options for continuing the rental? Do insurance companies extend the rental coverage? |

| When this happened to us, DH got the body shop to agree to pick up the rental car costs since they were responsible for the delay. |

| Sometimes the delay is supply chain not the body shop. |

| Insurance company picked up the tab for us. With that said, the other party was at fault. |

| Is the vehicle drivable and not dismantled yet? I’ve picked up my car and just driven it until they had parts/shop space. Otherwise, talk to the shop about picking up the rental costs. |
