Rates are determined by these things

Car insurance premiums on a 2004 will vary greatly and are calculated by many factors. Including but not limited to:

• High performance increases premiums
• Your accident history
• Home and auto can earn discounts
• Pleasure use vs. commuting use
• Mature drivers pay less
• Being married can lower rates
• Add-on coverages such as rental reimbursement
• Your claim history
• Having current coverage saves
• Home ownership saves money

An additional factor that can impact is the year of the vehicle. A newer vehicle have a higher value than older models so the costs to repair will push premiums up. On the flip side, new models may have safety features like active head restraints, an advanced theft deterrent system, and lane departure warning system so those may provide discounts that lower premiums.

Liability auto insurance - This provides protection from damage or injury you incur to people or other property. Liability insurance covers claims like pain and suffering, repair costs for stationary objects, and legal defense fees. It is cheap coverage so you should buy as much as you can afford.

Collision coverage - This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage resulting from a collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company. Collision coverage for your 2004 can be pricey, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from older vehicles. Another option is to raise the deductible to get cheaper .

Comprehensive (Other than Collision) - This coverage will pay to fix damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You first must pay your deductible and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage. The maximum amount your auto insurance company will pay is the cash value of the vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage - Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage gives you protection when other motorists either have no liability insurance or not enough. Because many people only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. That's why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is a good idea.

Medical expense insurance - Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance kick in for immediate expenses such as EMT expenses, pain medications, and nursing services. The coverages can be used in conjunction with a health insurance plan or if you lack health insurance entirely. PIP coverage is not universally available but can be used in place of medical payments coverage.
