Discounts are basically free money

Insuring your vehicles can cost a lot, but discounts can save money and there are some available to help offset the cost. A few discounts will automatically apply at the time of purchase, but some may not be applied and must be requested specifically before you get the savings.

  • Life Insurance – Larger companies have better rates if you take out auto and life insurance together.
  • Use Seat Belts – Drivers who require all occupants to use a seat belt can save 10% or more off your PIP or medical payments premium.
  • Good Student Discount – This discount can get you a discount of up to 25%. The discount lasts well after school through age 25.
  • Auto/Home Discount – If you have multiple policies with one insurance company you may earn up to 20% off your total premium.
  • Accident Waiver – Some insurance companies allow you one accident without raising rates if you are claim-free prior to the accident.
  • Safe Drivers – Insureds without accidents can pay as much as 50% less for Quest insurance than less cautious drivers.
  • Early Signing – Select companies give a discount for switching policies before your current expiration date. This can save 10% or more.

Keep in mind that many deductions do not apply to your bottom line cost. The majority will only reduce the price of certain insurance coverages like comp or med pay. Just because it seems like you can get free auto insurance, companies don’t profit that way. But any discount will bring down the cost of coverage.

Which insurance is the “right” coverage?

When it comes to buying adequate coverage for your personal vehicles, there is no “perfect” insurance plan. Every insured’s situation is different.

For example, these questions can aid in determining whether your personal situation could use an agent’s help.

  • Can I rent a car in Mexico?
  • How much liability do I need to cover my assets?
  • When should I remove comp and collision on my 2004 Nissan Quest?
  • Do I pay less for low miles?
  • Are my friends covered when driving my car?
  • Can I get a multi-policy discount for packaging my home and auto coverage?
  • Does having multiple vehicles earn me a discount?
  • Is my babysitter covered when using my vehicle?
  • Is my Nissan Quest covered if I use it for business?

If you’re not sure about those questions but you think they might apply to your situation, then you may want to think about talking to an insurance agent. If you want to speak to an agent in your area, simply complete this short form.

Learn about auto insurance coverages for a 2004 Nissan Quest

Learning about specific coverages of auto insurance aids in choosing which coverages you need at the best deductibles and correct limits. Auto insurance terms can be ambiguous and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording.

Collision coverage

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

Collision insurance covers things such as crashing into a building, colliding with a tree, hitting a mailbox and sustaining damage from a pot hole. This coverage can be expensive, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from older vehicles. You can also choose a higher deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Auto liability

Liability insurance protects you from injuries or damage you cause to other’s property or people by causing an accident. It 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 50/100/50 which stand for a limit of $50,000 per injured person, $100,000 for the entire accident, and property damage coverage for $50,000. Alternatively, you may have one limit called combined single limit (CSL) which combines the three limits into one amount without having the split limit caps.

Liability insurance covers claims such as loss of income, structural damage, court costs, emergency aid and repair bills for other people’s vehicles. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is a decision to put some thought into, but you should buy as large an amount as possible.

UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage gives you protection from other motorists when they do not carry enough liability coverage. This coverage pays for injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants as well as damage to your Nissan Quest.

Since a lot of drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is a good idea. Most of the time these coverages are set the same as your liablity limits.

Comprehensive auto coverage

Comprehensive insurance covers damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You need to pay your deductible first then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against things like rock chips in glass, damage from flooding, damage from a tornado or hurricane and hitting a bird. The maximum amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Medical payments and PIP coverage

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP kick in for immediate expenses like doctor visits, surgery, rehabilitation expenses and EMT expenses. They are often utilized in addition to your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. They cover both the driver and occupants and also covers getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP coverage is not universally available and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Saving money makes a lot of cents

As you prepare to switch companies, do not skimp on critical coverages to save a buck or two. There are a lot of situations where an insured dropped liability coverage limits only to regret at claim time they didn’t have enough coverage. Your strategy should be to buy the best coverage you can find at an affordable rate while not skimping on critical coverages.

Consumers switch companies for many reasons like being labeled a high risk driver, policy cancellation, delays in responding to claim requests or even unfair underwriting practices. It doesn’t matter why you want to switch finding the right insurance coverage provider is not as hard as you think.

Affordable 2004 Nissan Quest insurance can be sourced both online and also from your neighborhood agents, and you should be comparing both to have the best chance of lowering rates. A few companies may not provide online quoting and many times these small insurance companies only sell through independent insurance agents.
