Auto Insurance
The value of auto insurance goes beyond replacing or repairing your vehicle if
it’s damaged. It’s about limiting inconvenience and interruptions to your life.
Auto insurance from The Hartford provides all the coverage you need to get your
life back on the road quickly and affordably:
-
Bodily Injury Protection. Protects you against financial loss
when you are held legally responsible for an automobile accident causing injury
or death to someone else. This coverage also includes the legal costs involved
in your defense for a covered suit as well as court costs and bail bond
expenses.
-
Property Damage Liability. Covers you against financial loss
if you are found liable for damage to other people’s property, such as light
poles, fences or another vehicle, caused by your auto.
-
Uninsured Motorist Bodily Injury. This coverage pays bodily
injury or death expenses for you and any passengers in your vehicle up to your
policy limits if you're struck by a driver who doesn’t have insurance, or if
you're struck by a “hit-and-run” driver whom you cannot identify.
-
Uninsured Motorist Property Damage. This coverage pays for
damage to your vehicle when it is struck by an uninsured driver, a hit-and-run
driver, or an insured driver whose Property Damage Liability limit is
inadequate to cover the property damage losses incurred. Available in a limited
number of states.
-
Underinsured Motorists. This coverage pays benefits for the
bodily injury or death of you and any passengers in your car if you are
involved in an accident caused by a driver who has some insurance, but not
enough to cover the losses that result from the accident.
-
Personal Injury Protection (No-Fault). Pays benefits for the
cost of personal injuries resulting from an automobile accident. Coverage
applies without regard to who was at fault in the accident. It applies only to
injuries, and it does not cover damage to a car, or to any other property.
Coverage is provided on a per-person, per-occurrence basis.
-
Medical Payments. This coverage pays reasonable and necessary
medical expenses up to the selected limits, directly resulting from an auto
accident. This may include medical care, recovery, rehabilitation and remedial
care, as outlined in your policy. Coverage varies by state.
-
Collision. Pays for damage to your covered vehicle (up to its
actual cash value), less the deductible amount, for losses caused by collision.
“Collision” means contact with a physical object, such as another vehicle or a
structure. If you plan to purchase Collision coverage, selecting a higher
deductible generally helps to reduce the cost of your insurance. Collision
coverage is available only if you carry Comprehensive coverage. In addition,
Collision is often required when your car is financed or leased.
-
Comprehensive. Pays for damage to your covered vehicle (up to
actual cash value), less the deductible amount, as a result of damage caused by
events such as: fire, theft, glass breakage, riot, windstorm and hail. If you
plan to purchase Comprehensive coverage, selecting a higher deductible
generally helps to reduce the cost of your insurance. Comprehensive is often
required when your car is financed or leased.
-
Full Glass. Pays the amount of a covered glass loss with no
deductible. This coverage is optional and can be purchased for an additional
premium.
-
Towing and Labor. Pays up to the selected limit for towing of
your covered vehicle when it is inoperable, whether or not there is an accident
involved. (Note: You must also select Comprehensive coverage to obtain this
coverage.)
-
Rental Reimbursement. If your car becomes inoperable due to a
covered loss and you need to rent a substitute, this coverage pays the cost of
the rental car up to your policy limits. This coverage is available only if you
carry Comprehensive and Collision coverage.

Additional Options
To complement your standard features, The Hartford also offers an attractive
set of options for an additional cost. In the event of an accident, these could
help you save a significant amount of money—and aggravation. For example:
-
First Accident Forgiveness. Once you qualify for this benefit,
if you have an accident, it will be forgiven. It won't count against you, and
your rates won't go up because of it. ***
-
Disappearing Deductible. Maintain a clean driving record, and
we'll reduce your collision deductible by $150. And we'll continue to reduce
the deductible by $50 each additional year you keep your good driving record —
until it reaches $0. ***
-
Waiver of Deductible for a Not-At-Fault Accident. In most
cases, if an accident is not your fault, you won't have to pay your deductible.
We'll pay the full amount of covered damages and the deductible as well.
-
$100 Deductible Waiver for Choosing to Use an Approved Repair Shop.
If you choose to take your car to one of our authorized repair shops, we'll
waive $100 of your deductible, and you'll receive a guarantee on the
workmanship of claim repairs. ($100 waiver not available in Arizona.)

* Availability of package selections, benefit levels and features vary by
State.
** Your policy will not be non-renewed because of the number of traffic
convictions or accidents you or any operator may have during the policy period.
This promise does not apply if any operator is convicted of operating a vehicle
under the influence of drugs or alcohol, if an operator has a driver's license
suspension, or if you fail to provide, if requested, a physician’s
certification of fitness to drive. PLEASE SEE ENDORSEMENT FOR ALL PROVISIONS.
*** Some benefits, including First Accident Forgiveness and the Disappearing
Deductible are only available with the optional Sentinel Platinum or Advantage
Plus package. To qualify for these two benefits, all drivers on the policy must
have a clean record (no accidents or violations) for five consecutive years (in
most States). For the Disappearing Collision Deductible, these five years must
include a period of three consecutive years as a policyholder in this Hartford
auto insurance program, commencing after the effective date of the policy
issued through this offer.
