What is the name of your state? What is the name of your state? NJ
My car was hit when another driver was changing lanes from left to right. Woman was driving a car rented in PA. She provided her contact/insurance info. I called my insurance agent and reported the accident. After getting all information my agent mailed a letter with necessary reports to the rental claim division (I don’t have physical damage coverage). A guy from rental office called next day and informed me that another driver declined their coverage and they have nothing to do with my claim. They suggested filing the claim with the other driver’s insurance company. Same day I filed the claim with another driver’s primary insurance company. It took almost two months to get the answer from the driver’s primary insurance company.
The answer was: her personal policy is the secondary in that case. Please contact the rental company.
I am not sure what my options are?
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!
BTW, I have uninsured motorist coverage
