Tailor your insurance coverage coverage to you

When it comes to buying adequate coverage for your personal vehicles, there isn’t really a “best” method to buy coverage. Coverage needs to be tailored to your specific needs and your policy should reflect that. For example, these questions might help in determining if your situation could use an agent’s help.

How many claims can I have before being cancelled?
Do I have coverage when pulling a U-Haul trailer?
Do I need replacement cost coverage?
Does coverage extend to a rental car in a foreign country?
Does my 2009 Mazda CX-9 qualify for pleasure use?
I have a DUI can I still get coverage?
Will my vehicle be repaired with OEM or aftermarket parts?
Is a new car covered when I drive it off the dealer lot?

If it’s difficult to answer those questions but one or more may apply to you then you might want to talk to an insurance agent. If you don’t have a local agent, take a second and complete this form or go to this page to view a list of companies.

Coverage specifics

Learning about specific coverages of your insurance policy can be of help when determining which coverages you need and proper limits and deductibles. Policy terminology can be impossible to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring. Below you’ll find the normal coverages found on the average insurance policy.

UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage

This provides protection when the “other guys” either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered losses include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants as well as damage to your 2009 Mazda CX-9.

Since a lot of drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage should not be overlooked.

Liability coverage

This provides protection from damage that occurs to other people or property by causing an accident. It protects you from legal claims by others. Liability doesn’t cover your own vehicle damage or injuries.

Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. As an example, you may have limits of 50/100/50 which means a limit of $50,000 per injured person, $100,000 for the entire accident, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability coverage protects against things such as bail bonds, funeral expenses and repair bills for other people’s vehicles. How much liability coverage do you need? That is a personal decision, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as large an amount as possible.

Medical payments and PIP coverage

Med pay and PIP coverage pay for expenses for things like doctor visits, prosthetic devices and hospital visits. They can be utilized in addition to your health insurance program or if there is no health insurance coverage. Medical payments and PIP cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants as well as being hit by a car walking across the street. PIP is not an option in every state but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Auto collision coverage

Collision insurance will pay to fix damage to your CX-9 caused by collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You will need to pay your deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision can pay for things like backing into a parked car, sideswiping another vehicle and crashing into a building. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from older vehicles. You can also choose a higher deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Comprehensive auto coverage

This coverage pays for damage from a wide range of events other than collision. A deductible will apply then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive can pay for claims such as hail damage, a tree branch falling on your vehicle, rock chips in glass, theft and vandalism. The maximum payout a insurance company will pay at claim time is the cash value of the vehicle, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value consider removing comprehensive coverage.
