Information about specific coverages

Learning about specific coverages of your policy aids in choosing the best coverages at the best deductibles and correct limits. Auto insurance terms can be difficult to understand and nobody wants to actually read their policy. Below you’ll find the usual coverages found on the average auto insurance policy.

Comprehensive coverages

This pays for damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You first must pay your deductible and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive insurance covers things like vandalism, damage from flooding and falling objects. The most you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the cash value of the vehicle, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Liability insurance

Liability insurance can cover damage or injury you incur to people or other property that is your fault. This coverage protects you against other people’s claims, and does not provide coverage for damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Coverage consists of three different limits, per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You might see limits of 100/300/100 that translate to a $100,000 limit per person for injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $300,000, and property damage coverage for $100,000. Occasionally you may see a combined limit that pays claims from the same limit and claims can be made without the split limit restrictions.

Liability coverage protects against claims like structural damage, funeral expenses, pain and suffering, repair costs for stationary objects and bail bonds. How much liability should you purchase? That is up to you, but buy higher limits if possible.

Uninsured and underinsured coverage

This protects you and your vehicle from other drivers when they are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. Covered losses include injuries to you and your family and damage to your Nissan Pathfinder.

Because many people have only the minimum liability required by law, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is a good idea. Frequently your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are similar to your liability insurance amounts.

Coverage for medical payments

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance kick in for short-term medical expenses for dental work, doctor visits and funeral costs. They can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance program or if you do not have health coverage. Coverage applies to both the driver and occupants and will also cover any family member struck as a pedestrian. PIP coverage is not available in all states and may carry a deductible

Auto collision coverage

Collision coverage will pay to fix damage to your Pathfinder resulting from a collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You will need to pay your deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision coverage protects against claims such as sideswiping another vehicle, hitting a mailbox and damaging your car on a curb. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from vehicles that are older. Drivers also have the option to bump up the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.
