Sometimes referred to as “comp” or “other than collision” coverage, comprehensive coverage helps pay for damages that occur to the interior (and exterior) of your vehicle when it is not in operation or the damage is not the result of an accident. From damaged upholstery to a shattered windshield, comprehensive coverage can reimburse you for damages that result from falling objects, vandalism, theft, or fire. Comprehensive coverage insurance products would also cover the damage if you were hit by a deer or another large animal.
Some drivers want the protection comprehensive coverage offers, but they’re concerned about its cost. How much you’ll pay for comprehensive insurance varies, depending on your deductible (the amount you pay before your insurance kicks in). The higher deductible you choose, the less your premium will cost, but you will have to spend more out of pocket before you get reimbursed by your provider. A lower deductible means your premium will be higher, but you’ll pay less out of pocket when it’s time to file a claim.
