  • Roadside Assistance is there for you if you have a flat tire, a dead battery or other car issues when you’re in your car in Minnesota or anywhere in the United States. You can even have your car towed up to 100 miles.
  • Increased Rental Reimbursement will help you pay for a rental car if you’re in an accident and your car cannot be driven. However, even if you have this auto insurance coverage, car insurance companies won’t pay for you to rent a car for vacation.
  • Medical Payments can help you and your passengers pay for treatment, rehabilitation, dental care and other medical expenses caused by a car accident. This insurance won’t pay for injuries to those in the other car. For that, you’ll need to have bodily injury liability insurance.
