What Kind of Insurance Do You Need for Your Mercedes E Class?

Bodily injury liability

In an accident you cause while driving your Mercedes E Class, you are legally liable for injuries to other people. Bodily injury liability insurance, required in most states, pays for the costs of recovery and medical care for people hurt in an accident.

Property damage liability

Property damage liability insurance is legally required in many areas of the country. It's smart to talk with your agent about how much of this type of insurance you need to be well covered in case of an accident. 

Medical payments/Personal injury protection

You can choose between medical payments insurance and personal injury protection, depending on where you live. This insurance may even be mandatory. This policy pays for physical recovery costs for you and your passengers after an accident.

Uninsured motorist coverage

Nearly every state has laws about how much auto insurance drivers must have. Even so, many drivers choose to operate their vehicles without the proper amounts of insurance. Uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage protects your financial interests. If you are in an accident with someone who isn't insured, this policy prevents you from having to pay to repair or replace your vehicle. 

Optional Coverage:

Collision

Collision insurance coverage pays out if you are in an accident with another vehicle or you hit something with your Mercedes. Depending on the value of your vehicle, you may or may not want this additional coverage.

Comprehensive

If you hit an animal or your Mercedes is vandalized, comprehensive insurance coverage pays to replace or repair your car, minus your deductible. This coverage handles any damage not covered under your collision policy. 

Glass coverage

Replacing your Mercedes windshield could cost more than $1,000. With a zero-deductible glass coverage policy, which costs just a few dollars each month, your out-of-pocket costs for windshield replacement could be zero. 

Gap insurance

If you owe more on your Mercedes than it's worth, gap insurance is a smart choice. Your agent can help you understand how this coverage works and whether it could help protect your finances if your Mercedes is a total loss after an accident.
