Cheap 1999 Jeep Cherokee Insurance Quotes

Searching for low-cost insurance for a Jeep Cherokee can turn out to be a lot of work, but you can follow these tips to find lower rates. There is a right way and a wrong way to compare insurance rates so we’re going to tell you the quickest way to compare rates for a Jeep and get the lowest price.

Comprehensive Auto Insurance Comparison

Getting a cheaper price on 1999 Jeep Cherokee insurance is not rocket science. Consumers just need to invest a few minutes getting comparison quotes provided by online insurance companies. This can be done in a couple of different ways.

1. The first (and easiest) way to get the best comparison quotes is an all-inclusive rate comparison like this one (opens in new window). This type of form prevents you from having to do repetitive form entry for each company you want a rate for. One form will return price quotes from auto insurance companies with the best prices. Just one form and you’re done.
2. A harder way to get comparison quotes requires a trip to each company’s website to complete a price quote. For examples sake, we’ll assume you want comparison quotes from GEICO, Farmers and Liberty Mutual. To get each rate you have to take the time to go to each site to input your insurance information, which is why most consumers use the first method.

3. The least recommended way to get comparison rates is to spend your day driving to insurance agents’ offices. The ability to buy insurance online has reduced the need for local agents unless you require the personal advice only provided by licensed agents. However, consumers can compare the best prices online but still have the advice of a local agent.

It’s up to you how you get prices quotes, just make absolute certain that you use apples-to-apples coverage limits with every price quote. If you compare different liability limits it will be next to impossible to make a fair comparison for your Jeep Cherokee.

Don’t assume everyone needs the same coverage

When it comes to choosing adequate coverage for your personal vehicles, there really is no perfect coverage plan. Each situation is unique.

For example, these questions may help you determine whether your personal situation would benefit from an agent’s advice.

• Is my 1999 Jeep Cherokee covered for smoke damage?
• When should I buy a commercial auto policy?
• Does my personal policy cover me when driving out-of-state?
• Do I need motorclub coverage?
• Do I need more liability coverage?
• How much liability insurance is required?
• Do I have newly-aquired coverage?
• What can I do if my company denied a claim?
• Can I rent a car in Mexico?
• What is the difference between comprehensive and collision coverage?

If it’s difficult to answer those questions, then you may want to think about talking to an insurance agent. To find an agent in your area, complete this form. It’s fast, free and can provide invaluable advice.

Detailed coverages of your insurance policy

Having a good grasp of your insurance policy aids in choosing the right coverages and the correct deductibles and limits. The coverage terms in a policy can be difficult to understand and coverage can change by endorsement.

Coverage for liability

This coverage will cover damage that occurs to other’s property or people in an accident. This insurance protects YOU against claims from other people. It does not cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

It consists of three limits, per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You commonly see values of 100/300/100 that translate to $100,000 bodily injury coverage, a total of $300,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and $100,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability coverage pays for things like structural damage, court costs and emergency aid. How much coverage you buy is up to you, but consider buying as much as you can afford.

UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle from other motorists when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered losses include hospital bills for your injuries and also any damage incurred to your Jeep Cherokee.

Due to the fact that many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their limits can quickly be used up. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is very important.

Comprehensive auto coverage

This pays for damage that is not covered by collision coverage. A deductible will apply and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive can pay for things such as theft, vandalism, falling objects and damage from a tornado or hurricane. The maximum amount a insurance company will pay at claim time is the actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Coverage for collisions

Collision insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage resulting from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. You first must pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision coverage pays for claims like rolling your car, colliding with another moving vehicle and crashing into a ditch. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from lower value vehicles. Another option is to choose a higher deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Medical payments and PIP coverage

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage kick in for expenses such as chiropractic care, ambulance fees, prosthetic devices and hospital visits. They can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance program or if you lack health insurance entirely. It covers both the driver and occupants and also covers being hit by a car walking across the street. PIP coverage is not an option in every state and may carry a deductible
