Don’t miss out on these money-saving discounts

Insuring your fleet can be pricey, but you can get discounts that can drop the cost substantially. Certain discounts will be applied when you quote, but lesser-known reductions have to be inquired about before they will apply.

  • Theft Prevention System – Vehicles equipped with anti-theft or alarm systems prevent vehicle theft and earn discounts up to 10%.

Car Insurance Prices

This type of form saves time, eliminates repetitive work, and makes online price comparison much more enjoyable and efficient. After sending your information, it is rated with multiple companies and you can pick any of the quotes that you receive.

If a lower price is quoted, you can click and sign and purchase coverage. This process can be completed in a matter of minutes and may save quite a bit of money.

Do I need special coverages?

When it comes to buying coverage, there really is not a “perfect” insurance plan. Everyone’s situation is unique and your policy should reflect that. Here are some questions about coverages that could help you determine if your insurance needs might need an agent’s assistance.

  • Are rental cars covered under my policy?
  • Does my policy cover my teen driver if they drive my company car?
  • Does medical payments coverage apply to all occupants?
  • Should I get collision insurance on every vehicle?
  • Do I need to file an SR-22 for a DUI in my state?
  • Is rental equipment covered for theft or damage?
  • How high should my medical payments coverage be?
  • What is high-risk coverage and where do I buy it?

If it’s difficult to answer those questions but a few of them apply, then you may want to think about talking to an insurance agent. If you want to speak to an agent in your area, fill out this quick form or go to this page to view a list of companies.

Specifics of your insurance policy

Understanding the coverages of your policy helps when choosing appropriate coverage 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 normal coverages found on the average insurance policy.

Medical payments and PIP coverage – Med pay and PIP coverage reimburse you for short-term medical expenses like chiropractic care, X-ray expenses, funeral costs and hospital visits. They are utilized in addition to your health insurance program or if you do not have health coverage. They cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and will also cover if you are hit as a while walking down the street. Personal injury protection coverage is not available in all states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Auto liability insurance – Liability insurance can cover injuries or damage you cause to a person or their property that is your fault. It protects you against claims from other people, and does not provide coverage for damage to your own property or vehicle.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. Your policy might show limits of 50/100/50 that translate to a $50,000 limit per person for injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $100,000, and property damage coverage for $50,000. Alternatively, you may have a combined limit which combines the three limits into one amount with no separate limits for injury or property damage.

Liability coverage pays for claims such as medical expenses, pain and suffering and loss of income. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is a decision to put some thought into, but you should buy higher limits if possible.

Comprehensive auto coverage – Comprehensive insurance coverage covers damage from a wide range of events other than collision. A deductible will apply then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive coverage protects against things like damage from flooding, hail damage, a broken windshield and fire damage. The most your insurance company will pay is the cash value of the vehicle, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible consider removing comprehensive coverage.

UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage – This provides protection 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 2005 Chrysler 300.

Because many people carry very low liability coverage limits, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is a good idea. Frequently these limits do not exceed the liability coverage limits.

Collision coverage – Collision insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. A deductible applies and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision can pay for claims like colliding with another moving vehicle, rolling your car, scraping a guard rail and sustaining damage from a pot hole. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. It’s also possible to increase the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Be a Smart Shopper

Discount 2005 Chrysler 300 insurance is definitely available both online as well as from independent agents, and you should be comparing both to have the best rate selection. A few companies don’t offer online quoting and most of the time these regional insurance providers sell through independent agents.

When trying to cut insurance costs, it’s very important that you do not reduce coverage to reduce premium. There have been many cases where someone dropped collision coverage and found out when filing a claim they didn’t have enough coverage. Your focus should be to purchase a proper amount of coverage at an affordable rate, not the least amount of coverage.
