 TITLE: How to Get Help With Your Auto Loan During COVID-19 CONTENT: Don't Forget About Car Insurance\n--------------------------------\nYour auto insurance policy isn't tied to your auto loan, but it could still present an opportunity for saving. Here are some potential ways you can reduce your auto insurance premiums:\n*   **Contact your insurer.** Speak to your current insurance agent to see if there are ways to cut back on your monthly rate without sacrificing too much of your coverage. For example, if you no longer have a commute, you may be able to save as your expected annual mileage has dropped.\n*   **Shop around.** Regardless of how long it's been since you compared auto insurance rates, it may be a good time to shop around to see if you're leaving money on the table. Search online and request quotes from multiple insurers to make sure you get the best rates available.\n*   **Make changes to your policy.** Take a look at your policy to see if you can get rid of unnecessary coverage or increase your deductibles to save money on your monthly rate, making sure you abide by your lender's insurance requirements. And keep in mind that if you cut too much, it could backfire if you end up needing it in the future.\nIt's hard to say exactly how much you can save on your insurance bill with these efforts, but even a small amount can make a big difference when you're struggling.
