The quickest method we recommend to compare car insurance rates is to realize almost all companies will pay a fee to give you rate quotes. To start a quote, the only thing you need to do is provide the companies a bit of rating information including if it has an anti-theft system, an estimate of your credit level, your education level, and the ages of drivers. The rating information gets transmitted to many different companies and they return quotes almost instantly.

Tailor your insurance coverage to you

When buying adequate coverage, there really is not a single plan that fits everyone. Every insured’s situation is different and your policy should reflect that. For instance, these questions could help you determine whether or not you may require specific advice.

  • What is the rate difference between pleasure use and commuting?
  • Do I need replacement cost coverage?
  • When do I need to add a new car to my policy?
  • Do I pay less for low miles?
  • What if I don’t agree with a claim settlement offer?
  • Am I covered if I wreck a rental car?

If it’s difficult to answer those questions then you might want to talk to a licensed insurance agent. If you want to speak to an agent in your area, simply complete this short form or you can go here for a list of companies in your area. It is quick, free and can provide invaluable advice.

What car insurance coverages do you need?

Understanding the coverages of a car insurance policy can be of help when determining which coverages you need for your vehicles. Car insurance terms can be impossible to understand and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording. Listed below are typical coverages found on the average car insurance policy.

Comprehensive insurance – Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. A deductible will apply and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against things such as hail damage, a broken windshield and a tree branch falling on your vehicle. The most your car insurance company will pay is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle is not worth much it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) – This coverage protects you and your vehicle when the “other guys” either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered claims include injuries to you and your family and also any damage incurred to your Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class.

Since many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their limits can quickly be used up. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is a good idea.

Collision coverages – Collision insurance pays for damage to your GLK-Class resulting from a collision with another car or object. You first must pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision insurance covers claims like colliding with another moving vehicle, rolling your car and colliding with a tree. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to bump up the deductible to bring the cost down.

Liability auto insurance – This protects you from injuries or damage you cause to other’s property or people by causing an accident. This coverage protects you from legal claims by others, and does not provide coverage for damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

It consists of three limits, bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. You commonly see policy limits of 100/300/100 which means a $100,000 limit per person for injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $300,000, and $100,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability can pay for claims such as funeral expenses, court costs, attorney fees, structural damage and medical expenses. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is a personal decision, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as much as you can afford.

Med pay and Personal Injury Protection (PIP) – Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP pay for bills such as ambulance fees, chiropractic care and dental work. They are used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if you lack health insurance entirely. Medical payments and PIP cover all vehicle occupants and also covers being hit by a car walking across the street. Personal Injury Protection is only offered in select states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage
