How to reduce Volkswagen Jetta insurance rates

The cost of insuring your cars can be expensive, but you can get discounts that many people don’t even know exist. Larger premium reductions will be automatically applied at the time of purchase, but lesser-known reductions have to be specially asked for before you will receive the discount. If you don’t get every credit possible, you are throwing money away.

  • Multi-car Discount – Buying insurance for more than one vehicle on one policy can get a discount on all vehicles.
  • New Car Discount – Buying coverage on a new vehicle can be considerably cheaper because new vehicles have to meet stringent safety requirements.
  • Multiple Policy Discount – If you have multiple policies with the same insurance company you will save at least 10% off all policies.
  • Anti-theft Discount – Anti-theft and alarm systems prevent vehicle theft and qualify for as much as a 10% discount.
  • Memberships – Participating in a professional or civic organization may earn a discount when shopping for car insurance for Jetta coverage.
  • Defensive Driver – Successfully completing a driver safety course can save you 5% or more if you qualify.
  • No Accidents – Good drivers with no accidents pay much less when compared to accident-prone drivers.
  • Safe Drivers – Insureds without accidents may receive a discount up to 45% less for Jetta coverage than their less cautious counterparts.

Consumers should know that most credits do not apply to your bottom line cost. The majority will only reduce specific coverage prices like comprehensive or collision. So despite the fact that it appears you could get a free car insurance policy, car insurance companies aren’t that generous. Any amount of discount will help reduce the amount you have to pay.

Detailed coverages of your car insurance policy

Knowing the specifics of your car insurance policy helps when choosing which coverages you need for your vehicles. Policy terminology can be confusing and coverage can change by endorsement.

Collision coverage – This coverage pays for damage to your Jetta resulting from a collision with another car or object. A deductible applies then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision can pay for claims like hitting a mailbox, colliding with another moving vehicle, rolling your car, backing into a parked car and scraping a guard rail. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. It’s also possible to increase the deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision) – This coverage pays for damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive insurance covers claims such as a broken windshield, falling objects, hitting a bird and damage from a tornado or hurricane. The highest amount a car insurance company will pay at claim time is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider dropping full coverage.

Liability insurance – This protects you from damage or injury you incur to other people or property in an accident. This coverage protects you against other people’s claims. Liability doesn’t cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

It consists of three limits, bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. As an example, you may have liability limits of 100/300/100 which means a limit of $100,000 per injured person, $300,000 for the entire accident, and a total limit of $100,000 for damage to vehicles and property. Occasionally you may see one limit called combined single limit (CSL) that pays claims from the same limit and claims can be made without the split limit restrictions.

Liability coverage protects against claims like repair bills for other people’s vehicles, emergency aid, medical expenses and repair costs for stationary objects. How much liability should you purchase? That is a decision to put some thought into, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as large an amount as possible.

Insurance for medical payments – Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP kick in for expenses like X-ray expenses, nursing services and prosthetic devices. The coverages can be used in conjunction with a health insurance plan or if there is no health insurance coverage. They cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants as well as getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP coverage is not an option in every state but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance – This protects you and your vehicle when the “other guys” either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered claims include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Because many people have only the minimum liability required by law, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is important protection for you and your family. Frequently your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are identical to your policy’s liability coverage.
