Tennessee Auto Insurance Vehicle Coverages

Optional Tennessee Vehicle Coverages

Collision
Collision coverage can't be purchased without comprehensive coverage.

This coverage provides protection for:

  • Repair or replacement cost of the vehicle that has collided with other cars/objects or has rolled over
  • Vehicles covered by the auto insurance policy
Who might benefit from buying collision coverage?
If your car is financed or leased, the finance company will probably require that you carry this auto insurance coverage. If you have a newer vehicle or one in excellent condition, you may need this coverage to replace or repair the vehicle in case of loss. If you have an older car or one in poor condition, you may not want to pay for collision coverage.

Comprehensive
Comprehensive coverage must be included on policies that carry collision coverage, and it can't be purchased without bodily injury coverage.

This coverage provides protection for:

  • Damage not resulting from a collision (e.g., damage from falling objects, fire, certain natural disasters, and vandalism)
  • Theft
  • Glass damage
  • Damage from hitting an animal
  • Vehicles covered by the policy
