Save on 2013 Cadillac CTS Coupe Insurance Cost

Want cheaper car insurance rates for your Cadillac CTS Coupe? No one in their right mind enjoys paying for car insurance, especially when they know they could get a better deal.

Online insurance companies like State Farm, Geico and Farmers Insurance promote their brand names with fancy advertisements and it is difficult to ignore the flashy ads and effectively compare rates to find the best deal.

Compare quotes for auto insurance

To find the best auto insurance rates, there are several ways to compare quotes from auto insurance companies in your area. By far the easiest way to find competitive 2013 Cadillac CTS Coupe insurance rates is to perform an online rate comparison. It is quite easy and can be accomplished in a couple minutes as outlined below.

1. If you’re in a hurry, the quickest way to get quotes is an all-inclusive rate comparison click to view form in new window. This quick form keeps you from doing separate forms for every prospective company. One simple form will return price quotes instantly.
2. A slightly less efficient method to analyze rates is going to the website for each individual company to complete their respective quote request forms. For instance, we’ll pretend you want to view quotes from State Farm, Farmers and American Family. To do that, you would have to spend time going to each site individually and type in your information over and over, which is not fast way to get rate quotes.

The approach you take is up to you, just make absolute certain that you use the exact same coverages on every quote. If you are comparing mixed coverages it will be next to impossible to decipher which rate is best. Just a small difference in insurance coverages or limits could skew the results. And when comparison shopping, comparing more quotes gives you a better chance of getting the best offered rates. Some regional insurers cannot provide online price quotes, so it’s important to also get prices from the smaller companies as well.

Save with these discounts

Insurance can cost an arm and a leg, but companies offer discounts to help bring down the price. Certain reductions will be credited when you quote, but some must be manually applied before you will receive the discount.

• Payment Method – If you can afford to pay the entire bill as opposed to paying monthly you could save 5% or more.
• Claim-Free Discount – Insureds with no claims or accidents have much lower rates as opposed to accident-prone drivers.
• Discounts for Federal Employees – Employees or retirees of the government can save as much as 8% on CTS Coupe insurance but check with your company.
• 55 and Retired – If you’re over the age of 55, you may be able to get lower premium rates on CTS Coupe insurance.
• Include Life Insurance and Save – If the company offers life insurance, you could get a discounted rate on car insurance if you buy life insurance from them.
• Low Mileage – Fewer annual miles on your Cadillac can earn discounted rates on garaged vehicles.

Drivers should understand that some credits don’t apply the the whole policy. Most only reduce specific coverage prices like liability, collision or medical payments. Even though the math looks like all those discounts means the company will pay you, it just doesn’t work that way.

Large car insurance companies and the discounts they provide are:

• State Farm may include discounts for good student, multiple autos, safe vehicle, passive restraint, defensive driving training, driver’s education, and student away at school.
• Liberty Mutual discounts include exclusive group savings, teen driver discount, preferred payment discount, new vehicle discount, multi-car, and new move discount.

Special considerations

When choosing the best car insurance coverage for your personal vehicles, there really is not a perfect coverage plan. Every insured’s situation is different so your insurance needs to address that. For example, these questions might help in determining whether or not you would benefit from an agent’s advice.

• Should I drop comprehensive coverage on older vehicles?
• Does my insurance cover damage caused when ticketed for reckless driving?
• Does my liability insurance cover pulling a trailer or camper?
• What exactly is covered by my policy?
• How high should deductibles be on a 2013 Cadillac CTS Coupe?
• How many claims can I have before being cancelled?

If you can’t answer these questions, then you may want to think about talking 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.

Specific coverages for a 2013 Cadillac CTS Coupe

Knowing the specifics of your insurance policy aids in choosing the right coverages and the correct deductibles and limits. The terms used in a policy can be ambiguous and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording. Below you’ll find the usual coverages found on most insurance policies.

Collision coverage – This pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You first must pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision can pay for claims such as crashing into a building, colliding with a tree, crashing into a ditch and backing into a parked car. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are older. It’s also possible to choose a higher deductible to bring the cost down.

Liability auto insurance – This can cover damages or injuries you inflict on a person or their property. This coverage protects you against claims from other people, and does not provide coverage for damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Liability coverage has three limits: per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You commonly see liability limits of 100/300/100 that translate to $100,000 bodily injury coverage, $300,000 for the entire accident, and a total limit of $100,000 for damage to vehicles and property.

Liability coverage pays for claims like legal defense fees, court costs, repair costs for stationary objects, emergency aid and repair bills for other people’s vehicles. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is a decision to put some thought into, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as much as you can afford.

Comprehensive protection – Comprehensive insurance pays for damage from a wide range of events other than collision. A deductible will apply and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive can pay for claims such as hitting a deer, damage from a tornado or hurricane and theft. The highest amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the cash value of the vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Uninsured or underinsured coverage – Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other drivers when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered claims include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants and also any damage incurred to your Cadillac CTS Coupe.

Since a lot of drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is very important.

Medical expense coverage – Med pay and PIP coverage pay for immediate expenses for surgery, funeral costs, hospital visits, ambulance fees and nursing services. They are used to fill the gap from your health insurance policy or if you are not covered by health insurance. Medical payments and PIP cover all vehicle occupants and will also cover getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP coverage is not universally available but can be used in place of medical payments coverage
