Turo Rental Car Accidents in Los Angeles
Car Accidents Involving a Turo Rental
Were you injured in a car accident by someone driving a car rented through Turo? Turo is a company that connects private vehicle owners with car renters. It’s like Airbnb for cars.
Many issues can arise in an auto accident involving a Turo rental car, including:
- Turo’s insurance carrier denies coverage because the Turo driver was not listed as a driver on the Turo rental agreement.
- Turo driver did not have a driver’s license.
- Turo driver has no personal auto insurance.
- Turo car owner’s personal auto insurance carrier denies coverage because the vehicle was being used as a ridesharing vehicle.

Turo’s Liability Policy Limit
Turo’s insurance carrier is Liberty Mutual. If the Turo driver was listed on the rental agreement, there is $750,000 in liability insurance. Turo may even have excess policies. The trick is being able to access those policies by showing Turo and Liberty Mutual that you are owed compensation.
Turo Provides No Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) Coverage
In California, Turo’s insurance coverage does not include UM/UIM coverage. That means that if you are driving a Turo rental car, and you are injured in an accident caused by an uninsured driver, or an underinsured driver, there is no coverage under Turo’s insurance to pay for your injuries. Your only remedy will be to make a claim under your personal auto insurance policy if you have UM/UIM coverage.
