How Much Does 2005 Chrysler Pacifica Insurance Cost?

Want lower auto insurance rates for your Chrysler Pacifica? Are you intimidated by the dozens of auto insurance choices? You’re not alone. There are so many options available that it can be a real hassle to find the perfect company for you.

Do you qualify for discounts?

Companies that sell car insurance don’t list all their discounts in an easy-to-find place, so here is a list some of the more common and also the lesser-known savings tricks you should be using.

  • No Accidents – Drivers who don’t have accidents pay much less when compared to drivers who are more careless.
  • Accident Waiver – A handful of insurance companies will allow you to have one accident without raising rates if your claims history is clear prior to the accident.
  • Safe Drivers – Drivers who don’t get into accidents can get discounts for up to 45% lower rates for Pacifica coverage than less cautious drivers.
  • Save over 55 – If you qualify as a senior citizen, you may receive better insurance rates for Pacifica coverage.
  • Braking Control Discount – Vehicles equipped with ABS or steering control are safer to drive and earn discounts up to 10%.
  • Military Rewards – Being on active duty in the military could mean lower rates.

Keep in mind that some of the credits will not apply to the entire cost. A few only apply to individual premiums such as medical payments or collision. So when the math indicates all those discounts means the company will pay you, companies wouldn’t make money that way.

Car insurance companies that may have these discounts include:

Check with every prospective company what discounts are available to you. All car insurance discounts might not be offered everywhere.

Insurance policy specifics

Understanding the coverages of your insurance policy helps when choosing the best coverages for your vehicles. The coverage terms in a policy can be confusing and nobody wants to actually read their policy.

Comprehensive (Other than Collision)

This coverage will pay to fix damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first must pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive insurance covers claims like hitting a bird, hail damage, a broken windshield and a tree branch falling on your vehicle. The maximum amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage protects you and your vehicle from other drivers when they do not carry enough liability coverage. This coverage pays for injuries to you and your family as well as damage to your Chrysler Pacifica.

Because many people have only the minimum liability required by law, their limits can quickly be used up. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is very important.

Collision insurance

Collision insurance covers damage to your Pacifica resulting from colliding with an object or car. You have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision coverage pays for claims such as driving through your garage door, hitting a parking meter, crashing into a building and hitting a mailbox. 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. Another option is to raise the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Medical expense insurance

Med pay and PIP coverage provide coverage for expenses for pain medications, funeral costs and hospital visits. The coverages can be used to fill the gap from your health insurance plan or if you are not covered by health insurance. Coverage applies to you and your occupants and will also cover if you are hit as a while walking down the street. PIP is not an option in every state but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Auto liability insurance

Liability insurance can cover damage or injury you incur to other’s property or people by causing an accident. This insurance protects YOU from legal claims by others. Liability doesn’t cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. Your policy might show limits of 25/50/25 which means a limit of $25,000 per injured person, a per accident bodily injury limit of $50,000, and property damage coverage for $25,000.

Liability insurance covers claims like repair bills for other people’s vehicles, medical services, funeral expenses and court costs. How much coverage you buy is a decision to put some thought into, but you should buy as large an amount as possible.

Stretch your dollar

Affordable 2005 Chrysler Pacifica insurance is available online and also from your neighborhood agents, so you should compare both to get a complete price analysis. Some companies may not provide online price quotes and most of the time these smaller companies sell through independent agents.

While you’re price shopping online, it’s not a good idea to skimp on critical coverages to save a buck or two. There have been many situations where an insured cut uninsured motorist or liability limits only to regret that they should have had better coverage. Your focus should be to purchase a proper amount of coverage at a price you can afford.

You just learned many ways to compare insurance prices online. The key thing to remember is the more companies you get rates for, the higher your chance of finding lower rates. You may even find the best price on insurance is with the smaller companies.
