Thank you for the answers!

What I meant by "over insured" is paying for something that I don't need. For instance, I believe that purchasing the CDW insurance offered by Enterprise is an unnecessary expense when my Credit Card is offering it for "free" (aka for using it to pay for the rental)

Since I use Enterprise most of the time, I'll ask them next time whether they cover flat tires / dead engines and what the right procedure to follow it in that case.

I never had a car accident in my entire life yet, that I am sure it's just a matter of time until my first incident...
