Rates are impacted by...

Insurance rates paid to insure a 2003 will vary greatly based upon several criteria. Including but not limited to:

  • Your driving record
  • Your credit history
  • Where you live
  • Annual mileage can affect rates
  • Men typically pay more than women
  • Higher deductibles save money
  • Crash test rating for your 2003
  • Your profession
  • The level of coverage
  • Home ownership saves money

One last important factor that helps determine the rate you pay on your is the year of manufacture. Older models have a lower value so the costs to repair will push premiums down. Conversely, more recent vehicles may have options such as forward-collision avoidance, tire pressure monitors, and autonomous braking so those may provide discounts that lower premiums.

Liability coverage

Liability insurance will cover damage or injury you incur to a person or their property in an accident. Liability insurance covers claims like pain and suffering, repair costs for stationary objects, and legal defense fees. Liability insurance is relatively cheap so purchase as much as you can afford.

Collision coverage protection

Collision insurance will pay to fix damage to your from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. You have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Another option is to choose a higher deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive coverage

This will pay to fix damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You first have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The maximum amount your car insurance company will pay is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle is not worth much it's not worth carrying full coverage.

Coverage for uninsured or underinsured drivers

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage gives you protection from other drivers when they are uninsured or don't have enough coverage. Since many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. So UM/UIM coverage is very important.

Medical payments coverage and PIP

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage provide coverage for immediate expenses for things like EMT expenses, pain medications, and nursing services. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance plan or if you do not have health coverage. PIP is only offered in select states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage.
