Cheapest full coverage insurance in San Francisco

Some risks that may be unique to the Bay Area, such as earthquakes and auto theft, are usually not covered by state minimum insurance. Comprehensive insurance provides protection against damage caused by non-collision events such as weather-related incidents, animal interference and theft.

Full coverage also includes collision insurance, which pays for repairs to your vehicle after an accident, regardless of who is at fault.
