What is Comprehensive Insurance?

Comprehensive insurance helps cover the cost of repairing or replacing your car if it is damaged (not by a collision) or stolen. If you are in a car accident with another vehicle, comprehensive insurance will not cover the cost; you will need collision insurance to cover the cost.

Comprehensive insurance covers damage to your car caused by :

  • Auto theft
  • Fire
  • Vandalism
  • Natural disasters
  • Hitting or being hit by an animal

Comprehensive insurance is required when you are leasing a vehicle. If you own your own vehicle, comprehensive insurance is optional. Comprehensive insurance does not cover damage to another person’s vehicle.

We can work with you to determine if comprehensive insurance is right for you. Drivers with older cars may not see the value in adding comprehensive insurance to their package. However, drivers with newer cars may want to consider adding it to their package.

Our team at MAIF Insurance Online can help you find the right auto insurance for your vehicle. We can answer any questions you may have about auto insurance and help you obtain the proper insurance to keep you covered on the roadway.
