It is arranged by form number and title and it includes a brief explanation of the use of each form.

Note: In the absence of any other bold print wording in the endorsement descriptions, a reference to (10 13 change) indicates the form reflects ISO’s current auto coverage form titles, removal of countersignature space, and/or use of the term “Covered Auto Liability” in place of “Liability.”

FORM NUMBERING

The ten-digit numbering sequence of ISO forms and endorsements has a very specific meaning.

  • The first two entries are alphabetical characters that indicate the line of insurance involved. For example, CA denotes Commercial Auto.
  • The next two digits designate the specific insurance category. Additional detail and information on these categories is in the next section below.
  • The next two digits are the form or endorsement number within the insurance category.
  • The last four digits are the edition date of the form or endorsement expressed in month and year format. These digits are not used in this analysis.

AMENDATORY ENDORSEMENTS (CA 01)

CA 01 21–Limited Mexico Coverage (10 13 change)

This endorsement opens with a stern warning about driving in Mexico. The coverage provided is excess over any other insurance and applies only if the covered auto is within 25 miles of the United States border and for trips lasting less than 10 days. The covered auto must be garaged and used in the United States and only United States residents can be insureds. Physical damage coverage repairs must be made in the United States except for those needed to make the vehicle drivable. Such Mexican-made repairs are paid based on not more than the same costs that would have been paid in the United States.

CANCELLATION AND SUSPENSION ENDORSEMENTS (CA 02)

CA 02 38–Reinstatement of Insurance (10 13 change)

This endorsement is used to reinstate previously suspended coverages and/or vehicles. A schedule is part of the endorsement. Accurate completion of the schedule is very important because only the scheduled autos are reinstated, and the others remain suspended.

CA 02 40–Suspension of Insurance (10 13 change)

This endorsement is used to suspend the coverages and/or vehicles on the endorsement schedule. Return premiums are provided only if the suspension extends beyond 30 days. Note that only the suspension effective date is indicated. The suspension is lifted by attaching on CA 02 38–Reinstatement of Insurance on which a date is provided.

DEDUCTIBLE ENDORSEMENTS (CA 03)

CA 03 01–Deductible Liability Coverage (10 13 change)

This endorsement provides liability deductibles that apply per accident. They can apply to all liability or be limited to only property damage. Credits apply for the deductibles selected based on the ISO rating plan.

CA 03 02–Deductible Liability Coverage (10 13 change)

This endorsement provides liability deductibles that apply per accident. They can apply to all liability or be limited to only property damage. Credits apply for the deductibles selected based on the ISO rating plan. This endorsement is identical to CA 03 01–Deductible Liability Coverage except for one word that requires the insurance company to pay the deductible and then be reimbursed by the named insured. Under CA 03 01, the insurance company may pay the deductible and then be reimbursed. Under this endorsement, the insurance company will pay the deductible and then be reimbursed.

COVERAGE ENDORSEMENTS (CA 04)

CA 04 42–Exclusion of Federal Employees Using Autos in Government Business (10 13 change)

This endorsement tries to eliminate any attempt to provide coverage for the federal government under private insurance coverage. Under this coverage, the named insured or its employee acting as a federal government employee when an accident occurs is not an insured.

CA 04 44–Waiver of Transfer of Rights of Recovery against Others to Us (Waiver of Subrogation) (10 13 change)

No organization or person on the endorsement schedule can be subrogated against as long as a contract was signed waiving rights of recovery before a loss in which those rights could have been recovered occurred.

CA 04 45–Golf Carts and Low-Speed Vehicles (10 13 change)

Liability for damage by golf carts and similar vehicles has traditionally been insured under Commercial General Liability (CGL) coverage. However, when these vehicles are used off premises and on public roads, they become more like automobiles and may have to be registered in certain states. Doing so eliminates coverage under the CGL. This endorsement allows such vehicles to be scheduled on auto coverage forms.

CA 04 49–Primary and Noncontributory – Other Insurance Condition (11 16 Addition)

When this endorsement is attached, the insurance company agrees to consider the policy to which it is attached to be primary and will not seek contribution from other insurance that is available to an insured who is the named insured on that other insurance. This agreement applies only if the named insured under this policy is contractually bound to that other insured to not seek contribution and for its policy to be primary.

 

SPECIAL TYPE ENDORSEMENTS (CA 20)

CA 20 01–Lessor–Additional Insured and Loss Payee (10 13 change)

The leased vehicles on the endorsement schedule are treated as owned autos for coverage purposes.

In this latest edition, the countersignature area of the form was eliminated.

CA 20 09–Leasing or Rental Concerns–Contingent Coverage (10 13 change)

CA 20 13–Leasing or Rental Concerns–Schedule of Limits for Owned Autos (10 13 change)

This endorsement allows the named insured to have one set of liability limits on autos in cases where lessees or renters are required to provide primary coverage and another set on autos where they are not required to do so.

CA 20 14–Leasing Or Rental Concerns–Second Level Coverage (10 13 change)

The limit of insurance on the endorsement schedule replaces the limit of insurance elsewhere in the coverage form or in the rental agreement requiring primary coverage. The first part of the endorsement clearly benefits the named insured and not the lessee or renter. However, the second part of it is less clear as to who benefits. In addition, the endorsement is not clear as to whether the limits are for liability or physical damage coverage.

CA 20 15–Mobile Equipment (10 13 change)

This endorsement changes the Physical Damage Coverage section.
