All the larger companies take part in a program that allows shoppers to enter their coverage request one time, and each company then gives them pricing. This eliminates the need for form submissions for each company.

The only downside to doing it this way is you cannot specify the providers you want to price. So if you want to choose specific providers to request quotes from, we have a listing of car insurance companies in your area. Click to view list.

It’s up to you which method you use, but compare the same quote data with each company. If your comparisons have different values for each quote it’s impossible to make an equal comparison.

Do I need special coverages?

When choosing coverage, there isn’t really a “best” method to buy coverage. Every situation is different.

For instance, these questions can aid in determining whether or not you could use an agent’s help.

• Am I covered if I crash into my own garage door?
• How can I get high-risk coverage after a DUI?
• Am I covered if I hit a deer?
• What is covered by UM/UIM coverage?
• Do I benefit by insuring my home with the same company?
• Are there companies who specialize in insuring high-risk drivers?
• Why am I required to buy high-risk coverage?
• Am I covered by my employer’s commercial auto policy when driving my personal car for business?
• If I drive on a suspended license am I covered?
• Is my teenager covered with friends in the car?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions, you might consider talking to an insurance agent. If you don’t have a local agent, complete this form. It is quick, free and you can get the answers you need.

What auto insurance coverages do you need?

Having a good grasp of your auto insurance policy aids in choosing appropriate coverage at the best deductibles and correct limits. The coverage terms in a policy can be ambiguous and reading a policy is terribly boring.

Collision protection

Collision insurance pays for damage to your Santa Fe Sport resulting from a collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You will need to pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision coverage protects against things such as crashing into a building, sustaining damage from a pot hole and hitting a parking meter. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to increase the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Comprehensive (Other than Collision)

Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first have to pay a deductible and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage pays for things such as rock chips in glass, damage from getting keyed and damage from flooding. The most a auto insurance company will pay at claim time is the cash value of the vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle when the “other guys” either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered claims include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants as well as damage to your Hyundai Santa Fe Sport.

Since a lot of drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. So UM/UIM coverage is a good idea. Frequently these limits are set the same as your liablity limits.

Medical expense insurance

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP kick in for expenses for things like dental work, EMT expenses and funeral costs. They are often utilized in addition to your health insurance policy or if you are not covered by health insurance. It covers not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and will also cover getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP is not an option in every state but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Liability car insurance

This will cover damage or injury you incur to people or other property by causing an accident. It 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: per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You might see liability limits of 25/50/25 that means you have a limit of $25,000 per injured person, a total of $50,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and a limit of $25,000 paid for damaged property. 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 structural damage, medical services, loss of income, medical expenses and funeral expenses. How much coverage you buy is a personal decision, but consider buying as large an amount as possible.
