2001 Audi A4 Car Insurance Cost

Discounts lower rates, but most discounts do not apply to the overall cost of the policy. Most only reduce specific coverage prices like collision or personal injury protection. Even though the math looks like all the discounts add up to a free policy, companies wouldn’t make money that way. But any discount will cut your policy premium.

A list of insurance coverage companies and their possible discounts include:

• Progressive policyholders can earn discounts including continuous coverage, good student, multi-policy, homeowner, online quote discount, online signing, and multi-vehicle.
• Geico has discounts for multi-vehicle, air bags, five-year accident-free, daytime running lights, membership and employees, and defensive driver.
• State Farm offers premium reductions for multiple policy, passive restraint, anti-theft, defensive driving training, and Drive Safe & Save.
• Esurance offers discounts including claim free, anti-theft, good student, renters, defensive driver, and homeowner.
• The Hartford offers discounts for vehicle fuel type, driver training, bundle, anti-theft, air bag, good student, and defensive driver.

Different people need different insurance coverage coverages

When it comes to buying the best insurance coverage coverage for your personal vehicles, there isn’t really a one size fits all plan. Each situation is unique so this has to be addressed. For example, these questions can aid in determining if your situation could use an agent’s help.

• Are rock chip repairs covered?
• Do I have coverage when pulling a U-Haul trailer?
• When can I cancel my policy?
• How can I get my company to pay me more for my totalled car?
• How can I force my company to pay a claim?
• Does having multiple vehicles earn me a discount?
• What companies insure drivers after a DUI or DWI?

If you can’t answer these questions, you might consider talking to an insurance agent. To find an agent in your area, complete this form or go to this page to view a list of companies. It is quick, free and may give you better protection.

Insurance coverage breakdown

Understanding the coverages of your policy can be of help when determining appropriate coverage and proper limits and deductibles. Policy terminology can be ambiguous and coverage can change by endorsement. These are the normal coverages found on most insurance policies.

Liability

Liability insurance protects you from injuries or damage you cause to a person or their property that is your fault. It protects you against other people’s claims, and does not provide coverage for 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 policy limits of 50/100/50 that means you have a $50,000 limit per person for injuries, a total of $100,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and property damage coverage for $50,000. Some companies may use a combined limit which limits claims to one amount without having the split limit caps.

Liability can pay for claims such as funeral expenses, loss of income, structural damage and court costs. How much liability coverage do you need? That is a personal decision, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as large an amount as possible.

Uninsured or underinsured coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants when other motorists either have no liability insurance or not enough. It can pay for medical payments for you and your occupants and damage to your 2001 Audi A4.

Due to the fact that many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is very important. Frequently your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are similar to your liability insurance amounts.

Auto collision coverage

Collision insurance covers damage to your A4 resulting from a collision with another car or object. A deductible applies and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision can pay for things like hitting a parking meter, damaging your car on a curb and sideswiping another vehicle. This coverage can be expensive, so you might think about dropping it from lower value vehicles. Drivers also have the option to choose a higher deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Medical expense coverage

Med pay and PIP coverage reimburse you for short-term medical expenses for funeral costs, hospital visits and chiropractic care. They can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance program or if you lack health insurance entirely. It covers you and your occupants and also covers getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP coverage is not an option in every state but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Comprehensive protection

This pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You first must pay your deductible and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive insurance covers claims like rock chips in glass, damage from getting keyed, hitting a bird, a broken windshield and falling objects. The maximum amount a insurance company will pay at claim time is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s not worth carrying full coverage.
