When might I need help?

When it comes to buying the best insurance coverage, there really is not a single plan that fits everyone. Your needs are not the same as everyone else’s and your policy should reflect that. For instance, these questions may help highlight if your insurance needs would benefit from professional advice.

Which companies will insure high-risk drivers?
Can my teen driver be rated on a liability-only vehicle?
Is my 2010 Volkswagen Touareg covered for flood damage?
Am I covered when driving on a suspended license?
Will my rates increase for filing one claim?
Does my 2010 Volkswagen Touareg qualify for pleasure use?

If it’s difficult to answer those questions but a few of them apply, you might consider talking to a licensed insurance agent. If you don’t have a local agent, fill out this quick form or you can go here for a list of companies in your area.

Car insurance policy specifics

Learning about specific coverages of your car insurance policy aids in choosing which coverages you need for your vehicles. The terms used in a policy can be ambiguous and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording. These are the usual coverages found on most car insurance policies.

Medical costs insurance

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance reimburse you for short-term medical expenses like dental work, funeral costs, prosthetic devices and nursing services. They are used in conjunction with a health insurance plan or if you lack health insurance entirely. They cover you and your occupants as well as any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is not available in all states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Coverage for liability

Liability coverage provides protection from damage or injury you incur to a person or their property by causing an accident. This coverage protects you against other people’s claims, and does not provide coverage for damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. As an example, you may have policy limits of 25/50/25 which stand for a $25,000 limit per person for injuries, a limit of $50,000 in injury protection per accident, and a limit of $25,000 paid for damaged property. Occasionally you may see a combined single limit or CSL that pays claims from the same limit and claims can be made without the split limit restrictions.

Liability coverage protects against claims like legal defense fees, medical expenses, court costs, funeral expenses and pain and suffering. How much liability should you purchase? That is up to you, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase higher limits if possible.

UM/UIM Coverage

This provides protection from other drivers when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. It can pay for medical payments for you and your occupants and also any damage incurred to your Volkswagen Touareg.

Due to the fact that many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. So UM/UIM coverage should not be overlooked. Frequently these limits do not exceed the liability coverage limits.

Auto collision coverage

Collision coverage covers damage to your Touareg resulting from a collision with an object or car. You will need to pay your deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision coverage protects against things such as sustaining damage from a pot hole, crashing into a ditch, rolling your car, colliding with a tree and backing into a parked car. This coverage can be expensive, so consider removing coverage from lower value vehicles. Drivers also have the option to bump up the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Comprehensive or Other Than Collision

This coverage 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 pays for claims like damage from flooding, vandalism, damage from a tornado or hurricane and fire damage. The highest amount you’ll receive from a claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.
