How to ensure you have enough coverage on your Kia Telluride
To determine if you have enough auto insurance coverage on your Kia Telluride, consider the following protections:
Liability coverage
Make sure you comply with your state’s minimum insurance coverage requirements. Every state except New Hampshire requires liability insurance, but the specifics vary.
Uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage
UM/UIM insurance can pay your medical bills and car repairs if a driver with no insurance hits you. Only some states require this coverage.
Personal injury protection coverage
PIP coverage helps pay for medical costs, lost wages, and other expenses related to accident-related injuries. Some states require this coverage.
Collision coverage
Collision insurance provides coverage if you crash your vehicle, even if it’s your fault. This is typically an optional form of coverage, but if you lease or finance a vehicle, your lender may require you to purchase it as part of a full-coverage policy.
Comprehensive coverage
Comprehensive insurance helps pay to repair or replace your car after damage from a non-collision event, such as hail damage or vandalism. This coverage is optional, but if you lease or finance your vehicle, your lender may require it.
