Why you need Subaru vehicle insurance in Arizona

Despite the high cost of buying insurance for a Subaru BRZ in Chandler, buying car insurance is required for several reasons.

First, most states have minimum liability requirements which means you are required to buy a specific level of liability insurance if you want to drive legally. In Arizona these limits are 15/30/10 which means you must have $15,000 of bodily injury coverage per person, $30,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and $10,000 of property damage coverage.

Second, if you bought your vehicle with a loan, almost every bank will require that you have insurance to guarantee payment of the loan. If the policy lapses, the bank may insure your Subaru for a much higher rate and make you pay a much higher amount than you were paying before.

Third, insurance protects not only your car but also your assets. It also can pay for medical transport and hospital expenses for both you and anyone you injure as the result of an accident. Liability coverage, the one required by state law, also covers legal expenses if you are sued as the result of your driving. If damage is caused by hail or an accident, your car insurance policy will pay to repair the damage.

The benefits of buying enough insurance more than cancel out the cost, especially with large liability claims. But the average American driver is currently overpaying as much as $855 a year so it’s very important to do a rate comparison every year to be sure current rates are still competitive.

Cheap Subaru BRZ insurance quotes in Chandler

Not too many consumers would say car insurance is affordable, but discounts can save money and there are some available that can drop the cost substantially. Many of these discounts will be applied automatically at the time of quoting, but lesser-known reductions have to be manually applied in order for you to get them. If you’re not getting every credit you deserve, it’s possible you qualify for a lower rate.

• Seat Belt Usage – Drivers who always wear seat belts and also require passengers to buckle up before driving could save 15% off the PIP or medical payment premium.
• Passive Restraints and Air Bags – Vehicles equipped with air bags or motorized seat belts may earn rate discounts of 20 to 30 percent.
• No Accidents – Drivers who don’t have accidents get the best car insurance rates in comparison with accident-prone drivers.
• Anti-theft System – Cars and trucks that have factory anti-theft systems can help prevent theft and qualify for as much as a 10% discount.
• Life Insurance – Not all car insurance companies offer life insurance, but some may give you a discount if you purchase a life policy as well.
• Discounts for Multiple Vehicles – Buying a policy with several vehicles with the same car insurance company qualifies for this discount.
• Multi-policy Discount – If you can bundle your auto and homeowners insurance and place coverage with the same company you could earn a discount of at least 10% off all policies.
• Professional Organizations – Belonging to a professional or civic organization is a simple method to lower premiums on car insurance.

We need to note that some of the credits will not apply to the whole policy. Most only cut the price of certain insurance coverages like medical payments or collision. Even though it may seem like all those discounts means the company will pay you, it doesn’t quite work that way. Any qualifying discounts will reduce your overall premium however.

A few of the larger companies and the discounts they provide are detailed below.

• American Family offers discounts including mySafetyValet, Steer into Savings, defensive driver, early bird, good driver, and air bags.
• Farm Bureau includes discounts for good student, renewal discount, youthful driver, 55 and retired, and multi-vehicle.
• State Farm policyholders can earn discounts including Steer Clear safe driver discount, defensive driving training, good driver, Drive Safe & Save, anti-theft, and multiple autos.

• What insurance company do they write the most business with?
• Do they have adequate Errors and Omissions coverage? This protects you if they make a mistake.

Specific coverage details

Learning about specific coverages of a car insurance policy aids in choosing the right coverages at the best deductibles and correct limits. The terms used in a policy can be impossible to understand and coverage can change by endorsement. Listed below are the usual coverages found on most car insurance policies.

Coverage for liability

Liability insurance protects you from damages or injuries you inflict on people or other property by causing an accident. It protects you from legal claims by others. Liability doesn’t cover your injuries or vehicle damage.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. You might see values of 15/30/10 that means you have $15,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $30,000, and $10,000 of coverage for damaged property. Another option is one number which is a combined single limit that pays claims from the same limit and claims can be made without the split limit restrictions.

Liability coverage protects against things such as medical services, loss of income, emergency aid, attorney fees and funeral expenses. How much liability should you purchase? That is a decision to put some thought into, but you should buy as large an amount as possible. Arizona state law requires minimum liability limits of 15/30/10 but you should consider buying better liability coverage.

The chart below shows why minimum state limits may not be adequate.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other motorists when they are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. This coverage pays for injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants and damage to your Subaru BRZ.

Since many Arizona drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required (Arizona limits are 15/30/10), it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is a good idea. Usually these coverages are set the same as your liability limits.

Collision coverage

Collision insurance will pay to fix damage to your BRZ caused by collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You will need to pay your deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision coverage protects against things like scraping a guard rail, crashing into a ditch, hitting a parking meter, colliding with a tree and colliding with another moving vehicle. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so consider dropping it from lower value vehicles. It’s also possible to raise the deductible on your BRZ in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Medical payments coverage and PIP

Med pay and PIP coverage pay for expenses like surgery, doctor visits, pain medications and nursing services. They are utilized in addition to your health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. Coverage applies to you and your occupants as well as any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is not an option in every state but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Comprehensive coverage

This coverage will pay to fix damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive coverage protects against things such as damage from a tornado or hurricane, hitting a bird, a broken windshield, vandalism and rock chips in glass. The most you’ll receive from a claim is the actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value it’s not worth carrying full coverage.
