Legal Question in Insurance Law in California

Car Rental Fees for damages.

We rented a car and did not get the insurance. Was an accident and my insurance company paid for repairs. I have a $500 deductible that I owe the rental company. They want to charge me an additional $150 processing fee. Am I obligated to pay the $150. My insurance company says no.
