How to Conduct the End-of-Year Auto Insurance Review


As we approach New Year’s Day, there’s something that the insurance professionals advise: use the juncture to review your insurance policies – including your auto coverage.

Conducting an annual end-of-year insurance review will help you assess any changes you have undergone over the past twelve months as they relate to your coverage needs. Such a review can actually save you from things like overpaying for unnecessary coverage, having inadequate coverage and anything in between.  


5 Things to Look Out for in Your Auto Insurance Policy

  • You’ll want to see if you have your most updated information on- record, like a new driver or a change of address, so as not to face a possible coverage denial in the event of a claim.

  • If you financed a new car, you will want to see if your uninsured or under-insured motorist insurance sufficiently covers the loan amount in a total loss accident scenario.
  • If you own an old car that has little value in today’s market, you may want to remove any collision insurance coverage.
  • You’ll want to see if you are awarded for the premium discounts you or your family members are eligible for, like good student discount for teen drivers, driver’s education discount, a low-mileage discount, specific industry discount, or any other applicable form of savings.

  • At this time, you might want to have your agent shop the network of companies to see if you can get auto coverage at a better rate.

 

Consider your insurance agent your best friend when it comes to coverage education. He or she should be there to expertly guide you in every aspect of a review or other issue related to a policy.
