Compare Jeep Wrangler Insurance Quotes in Greensboro

It’s a known fact that auto insurance companies don’t want you to look at other companies. Consumers who rate shop once a year will presumably switch companies because there are good odds of finding lower prices. A recent survey revealed that people who regularly compared rates saved as much as $3,500 over four years as compared to drivers who never shopped around for cheaper prices.

If finding the lowest price for auto insurance in Greensboro is your target objective, then learning a little about how to shop and compare coverage rates can help you succeed in saving money.

It takes a few minutes, but the best way to find the cheapest price for auto insurance rates in Greensboro is to annually compare prices from different companies who provide auto insurance in North Carolina.

1. Take a few minutes and learn about what coverages are included in your policy and the changes you can make to lower rates. Many policy risk factors that result in higher rates such as inattentive driving and an imperfect credit rating can be remedied by improving your driving habits or financial responsibility. Later in this article we will cover information to help prevent costly coverage and find additional discounts you may qualify for.
2. Get rate quotes from independent agents, exclusive agents, and direct companies. Exclusive and direct companies can only give rate quotes from a single company like GEICO and Allstate, while agents who are independent can provide prices from multiple insurance companies.
3. Compare the new rate quotes to your current policy premium and determine if cheaper Wrangler coverage is available. If you find a lower rate and make a switch, make sure there is no coverage gap between policies.
4. Give notification to your agent or company of your intention to cancel your current coverage and submit a signed application and payment to the new insurer. As soon as you can, place the new proof of insurance paperwork along with your vehicle registration.

The critical component of shopping around is to try to compare identical deductibles and limits on every quote and to quote with as many different companies as possible. Doing this helps ensure an apples-to-apples comparison and many rates to choose from.

Rates and statistics

The data table displayed next highlights estimates of insurance prices for Jeep Wrangler models. Learning more about how rate quotes are formulated can be valuable when making informed decisions when comparing rates.

Data based on single male driver age 50, no speeding tickets, no at-fault accidents, $500 deductibles, and North Carolina minimum liability limits. Discounts applied include multi-policy, multi-vehicle, homeowner, claim-free, and safe-driver. Information does not factor in specific location which can modify prices greatly.

Physical damage deductible comparison

One of the hardest decisions when shopping for insurance is how high should the physical damage coverage deductibles be. The premium rates below may help to illustrate the rate difference when you buy lower versus higher deductibles. The first rate estimation uses a $100 physical damage coverage deductible and the second price grid uses a $500 deductible.

Table data represents married male driver age 30, no speeding tickets, no at-fault accidents, and North Carolina minimum liability limits. Discounts applied include homeowner, multi-vehicle, safe-driver, multi-policy, and claim-free. Rates do not factor in specific garaging location which can alter coverage rates greatly.

Based on these figures, using a $100 deductible will cost you approximately $15 more each month or $180 each year than quoting the higher $500 deductible. Since you would pay $400 more out of your own pocket with a $500 deductible as compared to a $100 deductible, if you usually have at least 27 months between claim filings, you would probably come out ahead if you choose a higher deductible.

An important thing to remember is that raising deductibles means you will have to pay more when you have to file a claim. That will require enough money in the bank in the event you have to pay the deductible to have repairs made.

Three reasons to insure your Wrangler

Even though it’s not necessarily cheap to insure a Jeep in Greensboro, maintaining insurance serves an important purpose.

• Almost all states have minimum liability requirements which means the state requires specific minimum amounts of liability in order to drive the car. In North Carolina these limits are 30/60/25 which means you must have $30,000 of bodily injury coverage per person, $60,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and $25,000 of property damage coverage.
• If you have a lien on your vehicle, most banks will require you to carry insurance to guarantee their interest in the vehicle. If you do not keep the policy in force, the lender may insure your Jeep at a significantly higher premium and require you to pay for it.
• Insurance preserves both your Jeep and your personal assets. It also can pay for many types of medical costs for yourself as well as anyone injured by you. One of the most valuable coverages, liability insurance, also pays for attorney fees and expenses if you are named as a defendant in an auto accident. If you receive damage to your vehicle caused by a storm or accident, comprehensive and collision coverage will cover the damage repairs after a deductible is paid.

The benefits of carrying adequate insurance outweigh the cost, especially when you need to use it. Today the average American driver is overpaying more than $800 each year so you should quote rates each time the policy renews to ensure rates are competitive.

Auto insurance coverage information

Understanding the coverages of your policy helps when choosing appropriate coverage at the best deductibles and correct limits. Policy terminology can be ambiguous and reading a policy is terribly boring.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision)

Comprehensive insurance coverage covers damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first must pay your deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive coverage pays for claims like a tree branch falling on your vehicle, fire damage and theft. The maximum payout your auto insurance company will pay is the cash value of the vehicle, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Insurance for medical payments

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP pay for expenses for things like chiropractic care, EMT expenses, prosthetic devices and ambulance fees. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. It covers not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants in addition to getting struck while a pedestrian. Personal Injury Protection is not universally available and may carry a deductible

Collision protection

This will pay to fix damage to your Wrangler from colliding with an object or car. You will need to pay your deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision insurance covers things like colliding with another moving vehicle, hitting a mailbox and backing into a parked car. This coverage can be expensive, so you might think about dropping it from older vehicles. You can also choose a higher deductible on your Wrangler to bring the cost down.

Auto liability

Liability coverage provides protection from injuries or damage you cause to a person or their property by causing an accident. This insurance protects YOU from legal claims by others, and does not provide coverage for your own vehicle damage or injuries.

Liability coverage has three limits: per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. As an example, you may have values of 30/60/25 that means you have $30,000 bodily injury coverage, a total of $60,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and a total limit of $25,000 for damage to vehicles and property.

Liability coverage pays for claims such as legal defense fees, funeral expenses, court costs, pain and suffering and emergency aid. How much liability should you purchase? That is up to you, but consider buying as large an amount as possible. North Carolina state law requires minimum liability limits of 30/60/25 but it’s recommended drivers buy higher limits.

The next chart shows why minimum state limits may not provide adequate coverage.

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance

This gives you protection from other motorists when they are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. Covered losses include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants as well as damage to your Jeep Wrangler.

Due to the fact that many North Carolina drivers carry very low liability coverage limits (30/60/25 in North Carolina), it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is very important.
