Insurance policy coverages for a Subaru Baja

Having a good grasp of a insurance policy can be of help when determining the right coverages for your vehicles. Policy terminology can be confusing and coverage can change by endorsement. Shown next are typical coverage types found on the average insurance policy.

Medical payments coverage and PIP

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage provide coverage for bills like ambulance fees, X-ray expenses, EMT expenses and rehabilitation expenses. They are often used in conjunction with a health insurance plan or if you lack health insurance entirely. They cover all vehicle occupants in addition to being hit by a car walking across the street. PIP is only offered in select states and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Collision insurance

Collision insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. A deductible applies and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision insurance covers things like rolling your car, crashing into a building, crashing into a ditch and colliding with another moving vehicle. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are older. You can also increase the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Liability insurance

Liability insurance can cover damages or injuries you inflict on other people or property that is your fault. It protects YOU from claims by other people, and does not provide coverage for 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 limits of 100/300/100 which means a $100,000 limit per person for injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $300,000, and property damage coverage for $100,000. Some companies may use a combined limit which limits claims to one amount rather than limiting it on a per person basis.

Liability can pay for things such as repair costs for stationary objects, legal defense fees, pain and suffering and court costs. How much liability coverage do you need? That is your choice, but buy higher limits if possible.

Comprehensive coverage

This coverage pays for damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You first have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against things like damage from a tornado or hurricane, falling objects, vandalism, damage from getting keyed and rock chips in glass. The maximum payout a insurance company will pay at claim time is the market value of your vehicle, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible consider dropping full coverage.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle from other drivers 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 2004 Subaru Baja.

Because many people have only the minimum liability required by law, their limits can quickly be used up. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is a good idea. Most of the time your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are similar to your liability insurance amounts.
