Why did my car insurance double?

That’s a crazy increase. I went from a 2011 to a 2024 Outback and my yearly premium only went up about $100.

Find an independent insurance broker. They’ll do the shopping for you.

I shop for insurance every year. Even if I don’t switch, I use the quotes to get my current company to match or lower my rate.

Best advice: use an independent agent. They can compare multiple companies at once. You might be surprised how much you save.

Newer cars are pricier to fix, so they cost more to insure. But it’s always worth getting multiple quotes.

I switched to Progressive after Farmers got out of control. Surprisingly, my rate has only gone down over the years. I also had two claims and they handled them well.

I switched from a 2007 CR-V to a 2018 Outback, and my original insurer quoted me double the rate. I shopped around and ended up paying less than before.

If you haven’t shopped for new insurance in a while, you’re probably overpaying.
