What factors impact ?

Auto insurance rates paid to insure a 2004 can fluctuate considerably based upon several criteria. Taken into consideration are:

• Your driving record
• Credit rating impacts rates
• Your location impacts rates
• Annual mileage can affect rates
• Male rates may be higher
• Higher deductibles save money
• Your vehicle's safety rating
• Claims drive up premiums
• Maintaining coverage lowers rates
• Whether you rent or own your home

A final factor that can impact is the model year. A newer vehicle have a higher value in comparison to later models so repair costs are higher which may result in higher rates. But newer vehicles may have a trim level with safety features including a backup camera, autonomous braking, active head restraints, and all-wheel drive which may provide discounts that lower premiums.

Liability auto insurance

Liability insurance can cover damages or injuries you inflict on a person or their property. Liability can pay for things such as emergency aid, pain and suffering, and medical services. Liability insurance is relatively cheap so consider buying as high a limit as you can afford.

Collision coverage

This coverage covers damage to your from colliding with an object or car. A deductible applies and then insurance will cover the remainder. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are older. Another option is to bump up the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Comprehensive (Other than Collision)

This will pay to fix damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first have to pay a deductible and the remainder of the damage will be paid by your comprehensive insurance. The most you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle is not worth much it's probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance

This gives you protection when the "other guys" either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Because many people only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their limits can quickly be used up. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is a good idea.

Medical expense insurance

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP provide coverage for expenses (i.e. doctor visits, EMT expenses, and X-ray expenses). The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance program or if there is no health insurance coverage. PIP is not an option in every state but can be used in place of medical payments coverage.
