Protect your car: Hurricane season isn’t over yet

Protect your car: Hurricane season isn’t over yet. Meteorologists weren’t wrong—this hurricane season is just as intense as they warned. In two weeks, Hurricanes Helene and Milton struck Florida, a testament to the resilience of our community. Despite the destruction, tragic losses, and widespread flooding they left behind, we stand strong.
Thousands of vehicles were submerged in water during these storms, and the season isn’t over yet. With about a month and a half to go, Florida’s weather still has more surprises in store. It’s crucial to stay alert and prepared. Right now, meteorologists are closely monitoring several systems forming in the Atlantic.
If your car was impacted by recent floods, tornadoes, or fallen trees, and you have comprehensive coverage, your insurance company should compensate you. Remember, the power is in your hands. By documenting all damages with photos and videos and sending this information to your insurer as soon as possible, you’re taking control of the situation and ensuring you get the compensation you deserve.
Unfortunately, if you only have the minimum required insurance in Florida—PIP (Personal Injury Protection) and PDL (Property Damage Liability)—you’ll need to cover repair costs out of pocket.
If you’re in a position to add comprehensive coverage to protect your car, now is the time. As my grandmother used to say, “The third time’s the charm.” We’ve dodged significant damage with the first two hurricanes, but what happens if another one strikes before the season ends?
It’s true that adding comprehensive coverage will increase your auto insurance premium, but there are ways to make it more affordable. You can bundle your auto and home insurance, raise your deductibles, or shop for the most cost-effective option.
If you’re not familiar with the process, it can feel overwhelming. The best solution is to contact Univista Insurance. Our specialists will handle the search, ensuring you get the best protection for your vehicle at the most competitive price. Protect your car: Hurricane season isn’t over yet.
