Senate Floor Amendment No. 1
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Illinois Insurance Code.

Provides that, at least 30 days prior to each renewal of a policy of automobile insurance, the insurance company or its agent shall provide the insured information regarding the availability of coverage for loss of use of an insured vehicle as a result of a cause of loss covered by the policy contract.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Provides that, in response to all applications for a policy of automobile insurance received by an insurance company, the insurance company (rather than the insurance company or its agent) shall provide the applicant written notice (rather than information) regarding the availability of rental vehicle coverage for an insured vehicle (rather than the availability of coverage for loss of use of an insured vehicle) as a result of a cause of loss covered by the policy contract. Makes conforming changes to policy renewal requirements.
