Tech/Engineering - Insurance / insurance cover
German term or phrase: Unterstellung nach Fahrzeugausfall
My text (description of car breakdown insurance cover) is almost identical to the one I found on the internet below

Folgende Leistungen beinhaltet der Schutzbrief XXX in Verbindung mit der Kfz-Haftpflichtversicherung:

- Europaweiter 24-Stunden-Service
- Beteiligung bei Mietwagenkosten bis zu DM 50,00 täglich und Pannenhilfe ab 50 km vom Wohnort
- bis zu DM 200,00 bei Pannen - und Unfallhilfe
- bis zu DM 300,00 bei Abschlepphilfe (abzüglich etwaiger Erstattung der Pannenhilfe)
- Übernahme der Bergungskosten
- Finanzierung der Weiter- oder Rückreise bei Fahrzeugausfall

- *****Kostenübernahme für die Unterstellung nach Fahrzeugausfall*****

- Kfz-Ersatzteilversand und Arzneimittelversand ins Ausland
- Kfz-Rücktransport und Krankenrücktransport aus dem Ausland

I can't imagine what "Unterstellung" means here.

Explanation:
It's about the "Unterstellung" (pronunciation with stress on *UN*ter-) of the car following a breakdown or accident.

See http://www.zellerer-renner.de/a1g01.html -
"***Fahrzeugunterstellung*** bei Fahrzeugausfall - Die Continentale trägt nach Diebstahl im Ausland, oder nach Panne bzw Unfall die Kosten für die ***Unterstellung des Fahrzeuges*** bis zu 2 Wochen."

Not entirely sure about the EN version, though - there might still be room for improvement.
