The Truth Behind 5 Big Auto Insurance Myths

By CAA Saskatchewan

In the world of insurance, there are many factors to consider when choosing the right policies for your needs. However, a lot of misinformation is spread which makes it harder to make the right choice! The CAA Insurance team always strives to ensure our communities are able to get the information they need to get the coverage that works for them. Let’s debunk some myths to help you learn more about insuring your vehicles! 

Myth #1: Red cars cost more to insure 

Fact: Your rate is actually determined by factors like the make, model, year, safety features, driving record, and where you live. The colour of the vehicle has nothing to do with it! If red is your favourite colour, feel free to enjoy driving in style. 

Myth #2: Minimum liability coverage is enough 

Fact: This level of insurance is required by law, but it might not provide adequate coverage for everything that could happen! Reviewing your policies as a vehicle owner is important, so you know what is covered and what is not. Additional insurance like CAA’s Auto Extension Coverage can help provide something more comprehensive! 

Myth #3: Loyalty to my insurance company guarantees the best rate 

Fact: Finding the best rates means looking around at different providers! All companies do not charge the same, so your rates will depend on a large number of factors. Some providers might even have discounts for certain circumstances—for example, if you are a CAA Member, you might be eligible for discounts from us! 

Myth #4: It costs more to insure 2-door cars than 4-door cars 

Fact: This doesn’t impact your rate! Refer to myth #1—many factors determine your rate, but the number of doors is not one of them. 

Myth #5: Only CAA Members can get CAA Insurance 

Fact: Anyone can take advantage of the great coverage, rates, and service from the CAA Insurance team! While being a Member means you can enjoy discounts on your rates, you are not required to be a Member to choose us for your insurance needs.
