Hartford Auto Ins? Check this out.

I have all my vehicles ( one car , a 2013 GMC P.U. tow vehicle and a 5th wheel) insured thru Hartford. I got my annual bill last week and it has jumped almost 50%. I have not had a wrecks or tickets so I thought it was time to get a quote from another company. I went to State farm. The agent looked at my bill and said that Hartford had a limit of coverage on the 2013 GMC of only $13,000. I checked my last years policy and the same thing so it was not a typo. So I am now insured with State Farm with better coverage at about 2/3 cost. I have nothing to gain w/ State Farm by posting this, just wanted to alert others.
  • This had happened to us about 3 years ago with Hartford, rates jumped almost 50% on both our home and auto policies and we never had a claim. We decided it was time to do some shopping and we no longer have insurance with AARP/Hartford.
  • WOW I have never heard of overage limits on vehicles like that...so if your 2013 was totaled they would only pay $13K? That right there is a reason to change companies, premium savings or not.
  • It is always good to shop around once in awhile.
    It seems some companies can take advantage of long time customers and give better deals to new customers.
