How to get a loaner car from a dealership? 

You can request a loaner car from the dealership if your vehicle is in service. These cars are often offered to the customer free of charge, and you can get them easily if your insurance policy covers a loaner car. Here’s how you can get one: 

• Ask the service department whether they have an option for a loaner car that your insurance will pay for.
• Once the staff identifies your car’s problem, schedule a meeting with the dealership. If the estimated repair time is too long, you can go ahead and request a car. 
• To get a substitute car for the duration of your car’s repair, you need to provide a few documents: a valid driver’s license, proof of insurance, and a secondary proof of identity. 
• You can get the loaner car once you have submitted all the documents. But make sure to follow the instructions that come with the car. You should also return the car on time.
