View 2001 Hyundai Santa Fe Car Insurance Quotes

Trying to find the cheapest car insurance rates for your Hyundai Santa Fe? Finding cheaper prices on car insurance might be difficult for drivers who are new to online rate comparisons. You have so many agents and companies to choose from that it can be a chore to find more affordable prices.

Discounts can really help save money

Some companies don’t list every possible discount in an easy-to-find place, so we researched some of the best known and also the more inconspicuous discounts that you may qualify for.

• Theft Deterent – Cars, trucks, and SUVs equipped with tracking devices and advanced anti-theft systems are less likely to be stolen and will qualify for a discount on a insurance coverage quote.
• Low Mileage – Fewer annual miles on your Hyundai could qualify for substantially lower rates.
• Home Ownership Discount – Simply owning a home can get you a discount since owning and maintaining a home shows financial diligence.
• Defensive Driving Course – Participating in a defensive driving class could save 5% or more and easily pay for the cost of the class.
• Anti-lock Brakes – Cars, trucks, and SUVs with anti-lock braking systems prevent accidents so you can save 10 percent or more.
• Safety Restraint Discount – Requiring all passengers to fasten their seat belts could cut 10% or more on medical payment and PIP coverage.
• Payment Method – By paying your entire bill at once as opposed to paying monthly you can avoid monthly service charges.

As a footnote on discounts, some of the credits will not apply the the whole policy. Some only apply to individual premiums such as medical payments or collision. Despite the fact that it seems like having all the discounts means you get insurance for free, that’s just not realistic. But all discounts should definitely cut your policy cost.

Some of the larger companies that may offer quotes with these benefits include:

• 21st Century
• State Farm
• AAA
• Liberty Mutual
• Progressive

Before buying, ask each company or agent what discounts are available to you. A few discounts might not be offered everywhere. If you would like to see a list of insurers who offer cheap car insurance quotes, click this link.

How to shop insurance online

There are a variety of methods to compare insurance quotes, and some are less labor-intensive and much quicker. You could spend the better part of a day discussing policy coverages with local insurance agents in your area, or you could save time and use the web to achieve your goal.

Many insurance companies belong to an insurance system that enables customers to submit their information once, and each participating company then returns a price quote based on the submitted data. This eliminates the need for quote requests to each company. To submit your quote information now, click here to open in new window.

The only downside to comparing rates this way is you don’t know exactly which companies you want pricing from. So if you want to select specific providers to request quotes from, we put together a list of low cost insurance companies in your area. View list of insurance companies.

You can choose any of those ways to find more affodable coverage, but be certain you are entering the same coverage data on every price quote you get. If you are comparing unequal deductibles or liability limits it will be next to impossible to make an equal comparison. Just a small difference in coverage limits may result in large price differences. And when comparing insurance rates, know that comparing more company’s prices will increase your chances of finding more affordable insurance.

Will just any policy work for me?

When it comes to buying the right insurance coverage, there really is no single plan that fits everyone. Coverage needs to be tailored to your specific needs.

For instance, these questions might point out whether or not you may require specific advice.

• Am I covered when driving someone else’s vehicle?
• How can I get my company to pay me more for my totalled car?
• Will I be non-renewed for getting a DUI or other conviction?
• Does my insurance cover my expensive audio equipment?
• When should I not file a claim?
• What exactly is covered by my policy?
• Can I still get insurance after a DUI?
• When does my teenage driver need to be added to my policy?
• Do I need replacement cost coverage?

If you can’t answer these questions but one or more may apply to you, then you may want to think about talking to a licensed insurance agent. If you want to speak to an agent in your area, take a second and complete this form.

Specifics of your insurance policy

Learning about specific coverages of your policy can help you determine the right coverages at the best deductibles and correct limits. The coverage terms in a policy can be impossible to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring.

Comprehensive (Other than Collision)

This coverage covers damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You first must pay your deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive coverage pays for claims like a broken windshield, theft, damage from a tornado or hurricane and a tree branch falling on your vehicle. The maximum payout your insurance company will pay is the market value of your vehicle, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value consider dropping full coverage.

Medical expense insurance

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage provide coverage for expenses for things like dental work, pain medications, prosthetic devices and nursing services. They are often used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance plan or if you do not have health coverage. They cover you and your occupants as well as being hit by a car walking across the street. Personal injury protection coverage is not available in all states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers

This gives you protection from other motorists when they do not carry enough liability coverage. Covered losses include injuries to you and your family and also any damage incurred to your Hyundai Santa Fe.

Since a lot of drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage should not be overlooked. Most of the time your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are identical to your policy’s liability coverage.

Collision protection

Collision coverage covers damage to your Santa Fe caused by collision with another car or object. You first must pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision coverage pays for claims like backing into a parked car, sideswiping another vehicle, rolling your car and scraping a guard rail. This coverage can be expensive, so consider removing coverage from older vehicles. It’s also possible to raise the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Liability

This coverage will cover injuries or damage you cause to other people or property by causing an accident. This insurance protects YOU against other people’s claims, and does not provide coverage for damage to your own property or vehicle.

Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. You commonly see values of 50/100/50 which means a $50,000 limit per person for injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $100,000, and a limit of $50,000 paid for damaged property. Some companies may use a combined single limit or CSL that pays claims from the same limit rather than limiting it on a per person basis.

Liability coverage protects against things like repair costs for stationary objects, legal defense fees, pain and suffering, bail bonds and repair bills for other people’s vehicles. How much liability coverage do you need? That is up to you, but you should buy as large an amount as possible.
