yes, if it is a result of a covered type of loss, however your policy will have a specific limit for pollution $5k, $10K, $20k and the like.

if the fluids come out of the vehicle itself yes there is coverage, if you were transporting the fluids, i.e gas can, oil can or container, then there would not be coverage
