Recreational Vehicle insurance

RV insurance typically covers driving and property loss risks connected with your vehicle. Some of the available types of coverage include: 

• Liability insurance—This may cover damages to third parties if you are responsible for an accident. It may also help pay for associated legal expenses. Two types of liability insurance are:
  • Bodily injury liability coverage 
  • Property damage liability coverage
• Collision insurance—This may provide payments to repair or replace damage to your RV after a collision with another vehicle or an object (e.g., a fence).
• Comprehensive insurance—This may help pay for damage to your RV from non-collision incidents, such as weather damage or animal strikes.
• Uninsured/underinsured insurance—This may insure you against damage caused by another driver who doesn’t have liability insurance or who doesn’t have adequate liability insurance to cover your losses.
• Medical payments (MedPay) coverage—This coverage can pay for medical expenses if you or your passengers are injured in an accident. 
• Personal injury protection (PIP)—PIP is similar to MedPay coverage, but it offers added coverages, such as payment for lost wages after an accident-related injury. 
• Campsite and vacation coverage—This may cover liabilities (e.g., third-party property damage or bodily injury) while using your RV at a camp or vacation site. 

Other insurance types may include roadside assistance, pest protection, rental car coverage and emergency expenses protection (e.g., for hotel bills). Additionally, full-time RV insurance may be available if your RV serves as your primary residence, and it may offer coverages similar to those of a homeowners policy (e.g., personal property coverage and liability coverage).

The cost of RV insurance is based on various factors, including the type, age and condition of your RV, your usage of it and your driving record. Your location, amounts and types of coverages selected, and claims history may also impact premiums.
