Auto insurance is not cheap nor is it fun to buy but you might find some hidden discounts that you may not even be aware of. A few discounts will automatically apply when you purchase, but a few must be asked for before you will receive the discount. If you aren’t receiving every discount possible, you are just wasting money.
One thing to note about discounts is that some credits don’t apply the the whole policy. Some only apply to specific coverage prices like liability, collision or medical payments. Just because it seems like all the discounts add up to a free policy, it doesn’t quite work that way. Any amount of discount should definitely cut your overall premium however.
A list of companies and some of their more popular discounts are:
Before purchasing a policy, check with every insurance company what discounts are available to you. Savings may not be offered in your area. To view insurance companies with discount rates, click here.
When choosing the right insurance coverage for your vehicles, there really is no “best” method to buy coverage. Everyone’s situation is unique.

Understanding the coverages of your insurance policy aids in choosing which coverages you need and proper limits and deductibles. Insurance terms can be impossible to understand and coverage can change by endorsement.
UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage
Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle from other drivers when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered losses include injuries to you and your family and also any damage incurred to your GMC Terrain.
Since many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, 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. Normally the UM/UIM limits are similar to your liability insurance amounts.
Medical payments and PIP coverage
Med pay and PIP coverage provide coverage for immediate expenses for ambulance fees, X-ray expenses, hospital visits and nursing services. They are utilized in addition to your health insurance policy or if you are not covered by health insurance. Coverage applies to not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and also covers being hit by a car walking across the street. Personal Injury Protection is not available in all states and may carry a deductible
Liability coverage
This provides protection from damage or injury you incur to other’s property or people. This coverage protects you from legal claims by others, and doesn’t cover your own vehicle damage or injuries.
It consists of three limits, per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You commonly see values of 100/300/100 which means $100,000 bodily injury coverage, a limit of $300,000 in injury protection per accident, and a total limit of $100,000 for damage to vehicles and property. Another option is one limit called combined single limit (CSL) that pays claims from the same limit without having the split limit caps.
Liability insurance covers claims such as repair bills for other people’s vehicles, repair costs for stationary objects, funeral expenses, legal defense fees and emergency aid. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is your choice, but buy as high a limit as you can afford.
Collision coverage protection
Collision insurance covers damage to your Terrain caused by collision with an object or car. You have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.
Collision insurance covers claims like colliding with another moving vehicle, sustaining damage from a pot hole, backing into a parked car and damaging your car on a curb. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Another option is to choose a higher deductible to bring the cost down.
Comprehensive auto coverage
Comprehensive insurance coverage pays for damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You first must pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.
Comprehensive insurance covers claims like damage from flooding, fire damage, hitting a deer and falling objects. The highest amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value consider removing comprehensive coverage.
Consumers who switch companies do it for a variety of reasons including policy cancellation, delays in responding to claim requests, denial of a claim or even an unsatisfactory settlement offer. No matter why you want to switch, finding a new insurance coverage company can be easier than you think.
When searching for the cheapest auto insurance quotes, it’s a bad idea to buy less coverage just to save a little money. In too many instances, an accident victim reduced physical damage coverage and learned later that a couple dollars of savings turned into a financial nightmare. The proper strategy is to buy a smart amount of coverage for the lowest price but still have enough coverage for asset protection.
Cheaper 2010 GMC Terrain insurance is attainable both online as well as from independent agents, and you should compare rates from both so you have a total pricing picture. Some companies don’t offer the ability to get quotes online and these regional insurance providers provide coverage only through independent insurance agencies.
