1996 Chrysler Concorde Insurance Rates

Trying to find the cheapest auto insurance rates for your Chrysler Concorde? Are you tired of being strong-armed to insure your Chrysler every month? Your situation is no different than the majority of other car owners.

There is such a variety of car insurance companies to pick from, and although it’s a good thing to be able to choose, it can be more difficult to find a good deal.

Consumers should take time to do rate comparisons periodically because prices are usually higher with each renewal. Despite the fact that you may have had the best price on Concorde insurance on your last policy there is a good chance you can find better rates now. So just forget anything you know (or think you know) about auto insurance because you’re going to learn the best way to reduce your cost while increasing coverage.

Finding Car Insurance

When shopping for car insurance there are multiple ways to get quotes from local car insurance companies. The quickest method to compare 1996 Chrysler Concorde insurance prices is to perform an online rate comparison. This is very easy and can be done in several different ways.

  1. One of the simplest ways to get quotes is a comparison rater form click to view form in new window. This easy form eliminates the need for a different quote for every car insurance company. Filling out one form gets you coverage quotes from several companies.
  2. A harder way to get comparison quotes is going to each company website to complete a price quote. For sake of this example, we’ll assume you want to compare rates from Nationwide, Farmers and Liberty Mutual. You would have to take the time to go to each site to enter your coverage information, and that’s why the first method is more popular.

It’s up to you which method you use, but compare apples-to-apples coverages and limits with each company. If you compare different values for each quote it’s impossible to make an equal comparison. Just a small difference in coverages may cause a big price difference. It’s important to know that quoting more gives you a better chance of getting lower pricing.

Cut your premium with discounts

Properly insuring your vehicles can get expensive, but companies offer discounts that you may not know about. Most are applied at the time of quoting, but lesser-known reductions have to be inquired about in order for you to get them.

  • Payment Method – If you pay your bill all at once instead of paying each month you can actually save on your bill.
  • New Car Discount – Insuring a new car is cheaper due to better safety requirements for new cars.
  • Student in College – Children who live away from home and don’t have a car can be insured at a reduced rate.
  • Low Mileage – Fewer annual miles on your Chrysler can earn lower rates on the low mileage vehicles.
  • Discounts for Safe Drivers – Insureds without accidents may save up to 50% more on Concorde insurance than drivers with accidents.
  • Multi-policy Discount – If you have multiple policies with one insurance company you will save at least 10% off all policies.
  • Anti-theft System – Vehicles equipped with anti-theft or alarm systems can help prevent theft and earn discounts up to 10%.

Keep in mind that most discounts do not apply the the whole policy. The majority will only reduce the cost of specific coverages such as physical damage coverage or medical payments. So despite the fact that it appears you would end up receiving a 100% discount, companies don’t profit that way. Any qualifying discounts will reduce your overall premium however.

What is the best insurance coverage?

When choosing adequate coverage for your personal vehicles, there is no best way to insure your cars. Every insured’s situation is different and a cookie cutter policy won’t apply. For example, these questions might help in determining if your insurance needs will benefit from professional help.

  • Why am I required to buy high-risk coverage?
  • Can I afford to pay high deductible claims out of pocket?
  • Is borrowed equipment or tools covered if stolen or damaged?
  • How many claims can I have before being cancelled?
  • Why is insurance for a teen driver so high?
  • Do I need special endorsements for business use of my vehicle?
  • Are rental cars covered under my policy?
  • Does medical payments coverage apply to all occupants?

If you’re not sure about those questions but you know they apply to you, then you may want to think about talking to an insurance agent. If you want to speak to an agent in your area, take a second and complete this form or go to this page to view a list of companies.

Insurance coverages and their meanings

Understanding the coverages of a insurance policy can be of help when determining the right coverages at the best deductibles and correct limits. Insurance terms can be difficult to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring. Listed below are the normal coverages available from insurance companies.

Comprehensive or Other Than Collision

This covers damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage pays for claims such as a broken windshield, vandalism, fire damage, hitting a bird and damage from a tornado or hurricane. The maximum amount your insurance company will pay is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

UM/UIM Coverage

This provides protection from other drivers when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered claims include injuries to you and your family as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Since a lot of drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their limits can quickly be used up. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is a good idea. Frequently these limits are identical to your policy’s liability coverage.

Collision coverage

This pays to fix your vehicle from damage resulting from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. A deductible applies then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision can pay for things like driving through your garage door, colliding with another moving vehicle and crashing into a building. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from lower value vehicles. It’s also possible to increase the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Liability car insurance

This provides protection from damage that occurs to other’s property or people by causing an accident. This coverage protects you from legal claims by others. Liability doesn’t cover your own vehicle damage or injuries.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. As an example, you may have liability limits of 50/100/50 that translate to a limit of $50,000 per injured person, a limit of $100,000 in injury protection per accident, and a total limit of $50,000 for damage to vehicles and property. Occasionally you may see a combined single limit or CSL which provides one coverage limit without having the split limit caps.

Liability coverage protects against things like attorney fees, legal defense fees and medical expenses. How much liability should you purchase? That is a personal decision, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as large an amount as possible.

Medical costs insurance

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage reimburse you for bills like funeral costs, chiropractic care and dental work. They are used in conjunction with a health insurance plan or if there is no health insurance coverage. They cover both the driver and occupants as well as being hit by a car walking across the street. Personal injury protection coverage is only offered in select states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Don’t throw your cash in the trash

Cheaper 1996 Chrysler Concorde insurance can be found both online and also from your neighborhood agents, so you should compare both to get a complete price analysis. Some companies may not provide the ability to get a quote online and usually these small insurance companies provide coverage only through local independent agents.

As you shop your coverage around, it’s a bad idea to buy lower coverage limits just to save a few bucks. Too many times, someone sacrificed liability limits or collision coverage only to regret that it was a big mistake. The ultimate goal is to buy enough coverage for the lowest price, not the least amount of coverage.
