TRIP INTERRUPTION/TRAVEL EXPENSE: When your vehicle is disabled due to a covered breakdown more than 100 miles from your residence, we will reimburse you for up to 3 days for lodging and restaurant meal expenses to a maximum of $125 per day subject to the following conditions: (1) The breakdown causes a delay in route to your destination. (2) The date of the breakdown will be considered the first day of the 3 day maximum period. The expense must be incurred between the time of the breakdown and the time the repairs are complete, or by the end of the third calendar day subsequent to the breakdown date if the repairs are not completed, whichever occurs first. Receipts are required for reimbursement.
Seeing as it is going to take THEIR inspector 3 days to get there but the 2-3 days to repair it, I would request 15 days at $125/day - $1875. Likely enough money to rent a car and drive home.
