Is my car protected against hail damage? Tom Pérez, who lives in Orlando, woke up in the early morning to the noise of hail hitting the windows and roof of his house.
The next day, after confirming that nothing was damaged on his property, he was horrified to see that his car had shattered windows and was completely dented. To make matters worse, the insurance declared it a total loss.
Usually, after a hailstorm, parked cars bear the brunt of the damage. These balls of ice, sometimes reaching the size of a baseball, shatter windshields and dent the bodywork. Sometimes the damage is so extensive that it is more expensive to repair the car than to buy a new one. Some owners want to know if their car is protected from the damage caused by this particular weather phenomenon.
If you have an insurance policy that includes comprehensive coverage, which, by the way, can cost less than $130 per year, your car will be protected against damages resulting from collisions with animals, natural disasters, fire, vandalism, theft, as well as objects falling on it, including hailstones.
People who are financing their car payment have likely been required by the lender to purchase collision and comprehensive coverage.
If you buy your car outright or have finished paying for it, it is advisable to maintain or include comprehensive coverage in your car insurance for the extensive protections it offers.
