Do all insurance companies provide same offers?

Although all the auto insurance companies provide similar offers, but a customer gets could be different depending upon several factors:

These are basically the amount of coverage normally based by state (and of course, by preference). This difference also lies in the offers for new and existing customers or for a person seeking to switch the current insurance provider. These includes driving records, claims history, policy years and many more which differ from company to company.

What is?

A regular monthly, quarterly, half yearly or yearly amount paid to an auto insurance company to get coverage. This is basically the fee breakup which a customer can conveniently pay.

By paying, the company will ensure that it will pay for any items covered in your auto insurance policy, for example, third party liability, collisions etc.

Selecting the Coverage

The coverage you want depends totally on your preference. There are many factors on which you should decide that what all coverage you want under your auto insurance policy. These factors could be your vehicle usage, commercial or private, the area you live if its more prone to accidents due to floods, heavy rains, showfall etc, and other factors like your vehicle is used for family, personal or work related use.

What Are Available Coverage?

• Basic Coverage

This offers the most important or standard insurance. It is comprised of Collision, Liability and Comprehensive coverage. Collision coverage handles accidents regardless of who is at fault. If you get into a fender-bender with another motorist, hit a post while backing-up from the driveway or perhaps open the door and it gets hit by on-coming traffic. That’s what Collision will cover, whether the car is for repairs or even replacement. Liability on the other hand covers third-party costs, it is applicable when you are at fault. It may not cover your own expenses and your car, but it guarantees that the third-party is taken cared of. Lastly, Comprehensive coverage is for non-collision related incidents. Natural disasters, a tree branch falling on your car, theft, fire, etc.

• Extended Coverage

These are add-on coverages that enhance your insurance policy. Options include coverage for Medical Expenses and/or Personal Injury; Incidents involving motorists who are Uninsured (no insurance) or the Underinsured (not enough insurance).
Extended coverage can even take care of vehicles acquired through a loan/financing. This is called GAP insurance (Guaranteed Auto Protection). With the understanding that a vehicle loses around 25% of its value once it is driven out of the dealership, your auto insurance will only cover this value – leaving you with the remaining percentage to pay on your own. This add-on works to cover that “gap” by not only factoring in the lower market value, but also the remaining balance to be paid on the vehicle loan.
