I have been an insurance broker for roughly 15 years now, and in that time I think I have seen every claim practicable. I have sold all types of insurance : vehicle, home, business, life, health, incapacity, etcetera, and I are at present selling Mexican car insurance.
Insurance in Mexico is a little bit different animal than it is in the US, as there are some coverage limitations that somebody from the U. S. would not expect to encounter. Below I have listed only one or two of these differences, and please do not confuse this with a total list of all of the differences, as there are too many to list.
- • Variable deductibles versus fixed deductibles
- • Exclusions for vandalism and partial theft
- • Travel Assistance
Now I want to address the named perils versus all risk policy difference. First of all, what is named perils? It is when an insurance policy names the specific hazards that are covered by the policy. As an example : collision, fire, upset, total burglary, etcetera.
A, so called, all risk policy states that we’re going to cover the insured property for anything that happens, and then it takes away precise risks, called exclusions. Exclusions that are shared by any insurance policy are : nuclear event, war, civil unrest, and etcetera. I call the all risk policy so called because it does not cover everything. It will take away some perils. Nonetheless it does provide much more coverage than does the named perils policy.
virtually all Mexican car insurance programmes are named hazards policies, while nearly all united states policies are all risk policies. You need to be conscious of this prior to going to Mexico, and remember that your Mexican vehicle policy will be offering a more limited coverage than does your current united states policy. I haven’t begun to find an all risk Mexican policy, and if I find it I might imagine that the price would be through the roof.
I really hope that you like your holiday, and you purchase Mexican car insurance before your trip.
