Searching for better insurance coverage rates for your Pontiac Grand Am? Having to pay for pricey insurance coverage can diminish your savings and make it impossible to make ends meet. Consumers have so many car insurance companies to choose from, and although it’s a good thing to have multiple companies, having more insurance companies makes it harder to find the best rates for your vehicles.
Choosing the best insurance company for you is not rocket science. If you currently have a car insurance policy, you will most likely be able to save some money using this information. Drivers just need to learn the most efficient way to get comparison quotes over the internet.
There are a variety of methods you can shop for insurance but one way is more efficient than others. You can waste hours talking to insurance companies in your area, or you can stay home and use online quoting to get rates in a matter of minutes.
Many insurance companies enroll in a system where insurance shoppers submit one quote, and each company can provide price quotes based on the submitted data. This prevents consumers from doing form submissions for every insurance company. To access this free quoting program, click here to start a free quote.

Which method you use is up to you, but be certain you are entering the same quote data with every price quote. If you compare mixed coverages it’s impossible to determine the best price for your Pontiac Grand Am.
Companies that sell car insurance don’t always advertise every disount available in an easy-to-find place, so we researched some of the best known and the harder-to-find ways to save on auto insurance.
You can save money using discounts, but most credits do not apply to the entire cost. Most only cut the price of certain insurance coverages like physical damage coverage or medical payments. So even though you would think you would end up receiving a 100% discount, nobody gets a free ride. Any qualifying discounts will bring down the amount you pay for coverage.
Companies and their possible discounts are shown below.
When quoting, ask all the companies which credits you are entitled to. Some of the earlier mentioned discounts may not be offered in your area. To find insurers who offer online auto insurance quotes, click here to view.

To find an agent in your area, fill out this quick form or you can go here for a list of companies in your area. It only takes a few minutes and may give you better protection.
Understanding the coverages of your policy can be of help when determining which coverages you need and proper limits and deductibles. The coverage terms in a policy can be confusing and nobody wants to actually read their policy. Shown next are the normal coverages found on the average car insurance policy.
This will pay to fix damage to your Grand Am resulting from colliding with another car or object. You have to pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.
Collision insurance covers things such as crashing into a ditch, driving through your garage door, scraping a guard rail, hitting a parking meter and damaging your car on a curb. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider removing coverage from older vehicles. Drivers also have the option to increase the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.
This will cover injuries or damage you cause to other people or property. This insurance protects YOU from legal claims by others, and doesn’t cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.
Coverage consists of three different limits, per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. Your policy might show 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 limit of $25,000 paid for damaged property.
Liability insurance covers things like emergency aid, medical services, attorney fees, funeral expenses and court costs. How much coverage you buy is your choice, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase higher limits if possible.
This protects you and your vehicle when other motorists either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered losses include medical payments for you and your occupants as well as your vehicle’s damage.
Due to the fact that many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their limits can quickly be used up. So UM/UIM coverage is important protection for you and your family.
Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance provide coverage for immediate expenses for dental work, rehabilitation expenses and chiropractic care. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. It covers both the driver and occupants and will also cover if you are hit as a while walking down the street. Personal Injury Protection is not an option in every state and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
This covers damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You need to pay your deductible first then your comprehensive coverage will pay.
Comprehensive coverage pays for claims like a broken windshield, fire damage, hitting a deer, hail damage and theft. The most you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible consider removing comprehensive coverage.
