How Much Does 2005 Saturn L300 Car Insurance Cost?

Trying to find the cheapest insurance rates for your Saturn L300? Sick and tired of scraping the payment together to insure your Saturn every month? Your situation is no different than most other car owners. Consumers have many insurers to choose from, and although it’s a good thing to have a selection, having more car insurance companies makes it harder to compare rates and cut insurance costs.

How to Lower Your Insurance Cost

Most major insurance companies give pricing on their websites. This process doesn’t take much effort as you just type in your personal and coverage information as requested by the quote form. Upon sending the form, their rating system gets your credit score and driving record and generates pricing information based on many factors. Online price quotes helps simplify price comparisons, but the time required to go to a lot of sites and fill out multiple forms is not the best way to spend an afternoon. But it’s very important to have as many quotes as possible in order to find the lowest price.

Quote rates the easy way

The smarter way to compare rates is to use a quote form to get prices from more than one company. This type of form saves time, requires less work, and makes comparison shopping a little more enjoyable. After sending your information, it is rated and you can select any or none of the resulting price quotes.

If the quotes result in lower rates, you can click and sign and buy the policy. It takes just a few minutes to complete and may result in a nice savings.

Using the same limits helps guarantee you will get comparison quotes based on identical coverages.

Take advantage of discounts

Insuring your fleet can be pricey, but companies offer discounts that you may not know about. A few discounts will automatically apply at the time you complete a quote, but some may not be applied and must be manually applied before you get the savings. If they aren’t giving you every credit available, you are paying more than you should be.

Sign Online – Some insurance companies give back up to $50 simply for signing online.
Defensive Driving Course – Completing a defensive driving course can save you 5% or more depending on where you live.
Life Insurance – Companies who offer life insurance give better rates if you take out life insurance.
No Accidents – Drivers who don’t have accidents pay less compared to accident-prone drivers.
Multi-car Discount – Having more than one vehicle with the same company may reduce the rate for each vehicle.
Service Members Pay Less – Having a family member in the military could be rewarded with lower premiums.

As a disclaimer on discounts, most of the big mark downs will not be given to the entire policy premium. Some only reduce specific coverage prices like liability and collision coverage. So even though it sounds like it’s possible to get free car insurance, you won’t be that lucky. But any discount will bring down your premiums.

Before buying, ask each insurance company what discounts are available to you. Some discounts might not apply everywhere.

Coverages available on your policy

Learning about specific coverages of car insurance can help you determine appropriate coverage and the correct deductibles and limits. Car insurance terms can be ambiguous and reading a policy is terribly boring. Listed below are the usual coverages found on most car insurance policies.

Comprehensive coverage

Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from 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 can pay for claims such as a tree branch falling on your vehicle, theft, rock chips in glass and damage from a tornado or hurricane. The maximum payout you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the cash value of the vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider dropping full coverage.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage

This protects you and your vehicle’s occupants when other motorists do not carry enough liability coverage. It can pay for injuries to you and your family as well as damage to your Saturn L300.

Due to the fact that many drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage should not be overlooked. Frequently the UM/UIM limits are set the same as your liablity limits.

Coverage for collisions

Collision coverage covers damage to your L300 resulting from a collision with an object or car. You have to pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision can pay for things such as rolling your car, crashing into a ditch, sideswiping another vehicle, crashing into a building and damaging your car on a curb. This coverage can be expensive, so you might think about dropping it from lower value vehicles. It’s also possible to raise the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Liability coverage

This provides protection from injuries or damage you cause to people or other property by causing an accident. It protects you from claims by other people, and doesn’t cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: 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 $25,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a limit of $50,000 in injury protection per accident, and a total limit of $25,000 for damage to vehicles and property. Alternatively, you may have a combined single limit or CSL which combines the three limits into one amount rather than limiting it on a per person basis.

Liability coverage protects against claims such as legal defense fees, repair bills for other people’s vehicles, funeral expenses, medical services and bail bonds. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is up to you, but buy as high a limit as you can afford.

Medical payments coverage and PIP

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance pay for short-term medical expenses like X-ray expenses, dental work, ambulance fees, rehabilitation expenses and EMT expenses. They are used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance program or if you are not covered by health insurance. They cover you and your occupants and also covers any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal Injury Protection is not available in all states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage
