The most common type of damage that auto insurance companies pay out is damage caused by auto accidents. However, this isn’t the only type of damage that is covered. Here at Selkirk Insurance Services, serving the greater Sandpoint, ID region, we want to help you understand what is and is not covered. Here’s more information about whether your car insurance policy covers vandalism.<\/p>\n

What Is Vandalism?<\/h2>\n

There are many ways that an automobile can be vandalized. Some of the most common include windows being broken out or shattered, the body being keyed or scratched, spray paint being used on the car, or tires being slashed. Your vehicle is also considered to have been vandalized if someone attempted to break in to steal it but failed, potentially damaging elements in your car, like the steering wheel column.<\/p>\n

Does Your Car Insurance Policy cover Vandalism?<\/h2>\n

If you carry comprehensive coverage, sometimes called full coverage, your vehicle is protected against vandalism. If you have state minimum insurance, also known as liability-only policies, your vehicle will not be protected against vandalism. If you have a loan out on your car, your lender requires you to carry full coverage, and you will be covered. If you’re unsure if your policy covers vandalism, your insurance agent can read through your policy and help you better understand what is and is not covered.<\/p>\n
