It depends on the state where you rent the vehicle.
Note - usually there are separate statute of limitations for property damage and written contract. Always assume the statute of limitations written contract prevais (as it is usually longer).

Credit card insurance is waiting for me to claim, asking me to submit documentation, but there is none (they said I have up to a year from the incident date).
Send a certified letter with RRR (paper or electronic) to its registered agent address, reiterate the issue and provide document proof regarding the credit card deadline, as well as anything about the filing the claim.
If they still fail to respond before the credit card deadline when you make proper notice like this, the car rental company will have to offset any damages that the credit card may cover based on the failure of mitigate.
