Browse through commonly asked questions about auto insurance coverage, claims, and enrollment.
Vehicle & Coverage
Most personal vehicles are eligible including sedans, SUVs, trucks, minivans, and hybrids. Coverage eligibility depends on the vehicle year, condition, and primary use. Specialty vehicles or commercial-use vehicles may require additional consideration.
Yes. Policy adjustments can typically be requested at any time during the coverage term. Changes like adding a new vehicle, updating deductible amounts, or modifying coverage tiers take effect once confirmed.
Driving location plays a role in determining premium and available options. High-traffic areas, weather patterns, and local regulations can all influence what's included in a policy and at what rate.
Multiple vehicles can be listed on a single policy, which may simplify management and potentially reduce the overall cost compared to separate individual policies for each vehicle.
Claims & Incidents
First, ensure everyone involved is safe and call emergency services if needed. Document the scene with photos, exchange information with the other driver, and file a claim through the member portal or by phone as soon as possible.
When a covered vehicle is determined to be a total loss, the payout is based on the actual cash value of the vehicle at the time of the incident, minus any applicable deductible. A claims specialist guides through the settlement process.
Standard personal auto policies typically do not extend to rideshare activity. Drivers who use their vehicle for rideshare platforms need to discuss specific coverage options that address the gap between personal and commercial use.
Payments & Enrollment
The deductible is the amount paid out-of-pocket before coverage covers the rest of a claim. Choosing a higher deductible generally lowers the monthly premium, while a lower deductible means more is covered but the rate may be higher.
Generally, a valid driver's license, vehicle identification number (VIN), current odometer reading, and basic personal information are needed to get started. Additional details may be requested depending on the coverage selected.
Policies typically include a short window after a missed payment before coverage lapses. Keeping payment details current and enabling reminders helps avoid interruptions in coverage.
