The 3 categories of FAQ 34 amendment in 2026

🚗

FAQ 34a — Rental only

Covers the rental of a vehicle during repairs. The most economical formula, suitable for urban areas with public transport available.

🚌

FAQ 34b — Public Transportation

Reimburse taxi, bus and transportation costs when rental is not required. Useful for customers who prefer Uber or bus.

🚙

FAQ 34c — Full Combination

Transportation rental and reimbursement with more generous limits. Default choice for the majority of our Assur360 customers.

How to get your replacement vehicle

1

Report the claim to your insurer

Contact your insurer or broker as soon as the accident occurs. Mention that you have the FAQ 34 addendum and request immediate activation.

2

Get Rental Authorization

The insurer confirms the authorized vehicle category (compact, midsize, SUV) according to your daily limit.

3

Pick up the vehicle from a partner rental company

Insurers have agreements with Enterprise, Discount or Hertz. You don’t advance money — the bill goes directly to the insurer.

4

Return the vehicle when the repairs are complete

As soon as your car is ready, you return the lease. Coverage ends automatically.

💡

Our broker’s advice

For most Quebecers, the FAQ 34c rider with a limit of $1,500 overall and $45-50/day is the best choice — you’re covered for more than 30 days and for almost any scenario (accident, theft, fire).
