Experiencing a flat tire can be incredibly frustrating. Whether it’s due to a nail on the road, a blowout while driving, or even vandalism, tire damage can occur when you least expect it. But does your auto insurance cover the cost of repairing or replacing your tires? At Rowledge & Falvo Insurance Agency, proudly providing auto insurance to individuals in and around Scotia, NY, we aim to help you understand how your coverage applies to tire damage so you’re not caught off guard.<\/p>\n

When Auto Insurance Covers Tire Damage<\/h2>\n

In some instances, your auto insurance policy may help pay for tire repairs or replacements, but it depends on what caused the damage. If your tires are damaged due to an accident covered under your collision insurance, the cost of replacing them may be included in your claim. Similarly, if your tires are slashed or stolen, comprehensive coverage could step in to help.<\/p>\n

When You’re Likely Paying Out of Pocket<\/h2>\n

Unfortunately, auto insurance does not cover normal wear and tear. If your tires wear out over time or develop a slow leak, that’s considered routine maintenance, and you’ll be responsible for replacing them. Even if you hit a pothole and damage your tires, your policy may not cover it unless your vehicle sustains additional damage that qualifies under collision coverage.<\/p>\n
