Comprehensive insurance covers your car for damage from events beyond your control, including theft, natural disasters and animal strikes<\/strong>. Jerry has helped 108,903 drivers get comprehensive insurance<\/strong> this year, and our experts recommend it for anyone with a car that would be expensive to replace in an emergency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It won’t pay for crash damage (that’s collision insurance<\/a>), but it covers nearly everything else that could harm your car<\/strong> while parked or driving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s what comprehensive insurance covers \u2014 and doesn’t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you need comprehensive insurance?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you finance or lease your vehicle<\/strong> you’ll likely be required by your lender<\/strong> to buy comprehensive coverage. But it also may provide value long after your car is paid off. Here’s how to know whether to consider it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
