## Standard Auto Insurance

- Best for: Michigan drivers, multi-vehicle households, high-value cars, classics/collectibles, and recreational vehicles
- Michigan must-haves: required coverages include PIP, PPI, and BI/PD
- Often paired with: Umbrella, Home, Scheduled Property, Recreational coverage

## What It Typically Helps Cover

## Michigan’s Required Auto Coverages

- Personal Injury Protection (PIP): helps cover certain injury-related expenses for you and eligible household members, based on the option you select
- Property Protection Insurance (PPI): helps pay for certain damage your vehicle causes to other people’s property in Michigan (details vary)
- Bodily Injury / Property Damage Liability (BI/PD): helps if you’re legally responsible for injury or damage in certain situations (details vary)

![mI\_required\_auto\_coverages](https://www.finlan.com/hubfs/mI_required_auto_coverages.png "mI_required_auto_coverages")

![common\_optional\_protections](https://www.finlan.com/hubfs/common_optional_protections.png "common_optional_protections")

## Common Optional Protections

- Collision: helps repair your vehicle after a crash (when selected)
- Comprehensive: helps cover non-collision losses like theft, vandalism, falling objects, animal damage (when selected)
- Uninsured/underinsured motorist: extra protection if you’re hit by a driver with no insurance or not enough insurance (when selected)

#### The right coverage helps protect you from everyday risks at home, on the road & beyond.

## Types of Auto Insurance We Help With

![standard\_auto\_insurance](https://www.finlan.com/hubfs/standard_auto_insurance.svg)

### Standard auto insurance

What it is: A personal auto policy built around Michigan’s no-fault structure plus the options you choose.

When it matters: For everyday driving and household protection.

![high\_value\_auto\_insurance](https://www.finlan.com/hubfs/high_value_auto_insurance.svg)

### High-value auto insurance

What it is: Coverage designed for luxury, exotic, and custom vehicles where standard settlement methods may not reflect the vehicle’s true value.

When it matters: When the vehicle value and ownership experience call for a higher-fit policy.

![classic\_car\_insurance](https://www.finlan.com/hubfs/classic_car_insurance.svg)

### Classic & collectible car insurance

What it is: Coverage designed for collector vehicles, often reflecting limited use, storage, and collector value.

When it matters: When a standard policy doesn’t match the way a classic is driven and valued.

![recreational\_vehicle\_insurance](https://www.finlan.com/hubfs/recreational_vehicle_insurance.svg)

### Recreational vehicle insurance

What it is: Coverage for ATVs, RVs, campers, and snowmobiles that matches seasonal use and unique risks.

When it matters: When you want smarter protection than trying to squeeze everything into a daily-driver policy.

## Real-World Scenarios

![winter\_collision](https://www.finlan.com/hubfs/winter_collision.svg)

### 1) Winter collision:

You slide on ice and hit another vehicle. Collision coverage (if selected) may help repair your vehicle.

![uninsured\_driver](https://www.finlan.com/hubfs/uninsured_driver.svg)

### 2) Uninsured driver hits you:

UM/UIM (if selected) can be a key backstop. 

![high\_value\_vehicle\_loss](https://www.finlan.com/hubfs/high_value_vehicle_loss.svg)

### 3) High-value vehicle total loss:

High-value programs are designed to align coverage with the vehicle’s real value, reducing surprise gaps.

## What Impacts Cost

- Driver records and household drivers
- Vehicle value and repair costs
- Coverage selections (deductibles, collision/comp, UM/UIM)
- Mileage and usage
- Claim history
- Multi-policy bundling

## What We’ll Ask You For

- Driver list + DOBs (as carriers require)
- Vehicle info (VINs, year/make/model)
- How each vehicle is used (commute/pleasure/seasonal)
- Current policy/dec page (if available)
- Notes on customizations, storage, or collectible value

#### A few details can help us match you with coverage that fits your needs, lifestyle & budget.

## FAQs

What are the three required coverages in Michigan?

Michigan’s required coverages include PIP, PPI, and BI/PD. We’ll explain each one and help you choose options that fit your situation.

What does “no-fault” mean in plain English?

In many situations, your own policy helps cover certain injury-related losses regardless of who caused the accident, based on your selections and eligibility.

Do I need collision and comprehensive?

If you want coverage for damage to your own vehicle, these are the two core options. Collision is for crash damage; comprehensive is for non-collision events like theft or vandalism.

What’s the difference between “state minimum” and “full coverage”?

State minimum refers to the legal requirement. Full coverage isn’t a defined insurance term – most people mean they have liability plus collision and comprehensive, but coverage still has limits and exclusions.

How do I choose deductibles?

A higher deductible generally lowers premium, but increases what you pay out of pocket if you file a claim. We’ll help you balance monthly cost vs financial comfort if something happens.

What’s different about high-value auto insurance?

High-value programs are designed to better match the vehicle’s value and ownership realities, which can help reduce valuation surprises after a claim.

Do classic cars need specialized coverage?

Often yes. Classic/collectible policies are built around how the vehicle is stored, driven, and valued – usually different from a daily driver.

Do ATVs, snowmobiles, and RVs need separate coverage?

Often they’re best protected with dedicated coverage tailored to seasonal use and different risks than standard auto.

What changes should I report to my agent?

New drivers (especially teens), address/garaging changes, vehicle use changes, and new vehicles should all be updated quickly to avoid coverage issues.

Can I bundle auto with home and umbrella?

Often yes. Bundling can simplify your coverage and may improve overall value, while keeping each policy structured correctly.
