Coverages available on your insurance policy

Knowing the specifics of your insurance policy can help you determine which coverages you need and the correct deductibles and limits. Policy terminology can be impossible to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring. These are typical coverages available from insurance companies.

Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage gives you protection from other motorists when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered claims include injuries to you and your family and also any damage incurred to your Ford Aerostar.

Since many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their limits can quickly be used up. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is a good idea. Usually these coverages do not exceed the liability coverage limits.

Comprehensive (Other than Collision)

Comprehensive insurance covers damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You first must pay your deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive insurance covers claims like damage from flooding, hail damage, a broken windshield, fire damage and damage from getting keyed. The highest amount a insurance company will pay at claim time is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Medical expense insurance

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP kick in for short-term medical expenses for pain medications, rehabilitation expenses, hospital visits and EMT expenses. The coverages can be used to fill the gap from your health insurance plan or if you do not have health coverage. Coverage applies to both the driver and occupants as well as getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP coverage is not available in all states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Liability coverage

Liability coverage can cover injuries or damage you cause to other people or property. This insurance protects YOU from claims by other people, and does not provide coverage for damage to your own property or vehicle.

Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. As an example, you may have policy limits of 25/50/25 which means a $25,000 limit per person for injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $50,000, and a limit of $25,000 paid for damaged property. Another option is a combined limit which combines the three limits into one amount rather than limiting it on a per person basis.

Liability coverage protects against claims such as medical services, structural damage, attorney fees and repair costs for stationary objects. How much coverage you buy is a decision to put some thought into, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase higher limits if possible.

Collision coverage

Collision insurance will pay to fix damage to your Aerostar caused by 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, colliding with another moving vehicle, hitting a parking meter, sustaining damage from a pot hole and backing into a parked car. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to bump up the deductible to save money on collision insurance.
