I currently have a lien out on a vehicle. I also have "full coverage" or "comprehensive and collision". The cost for my insurance is ridiculous! I wanted to know if I could take the insurance off the vehicle, put the vehicle in storage, and just pay off the note. Meanwhile I will be driving a much less expensive vehicle until the note is paid off.

Full coverage or comprehensive and collision coverage help pay for damages on your car. Generally most lienholders will require that you carry some type of this coverage to pay for damages to a vehicle in which they also have some type of ownership interest.

If you want to put the vehicle in storage and remove the insurance coverage on it, you will have to first contact the lienholder to find out if they will allow you to do this. It is up to them to decide if they want to let you put your vehicle in storage and not have the comprehensive and collision on the vehicle.

If they insist that you must insure the vehicle with the comprehensive and collision coverage, you can look into increasing your deductibles for the coverage. Increasing the deductible means you will pay more out-of-pocket before the insurance payments kick in, but it may also decreases you insurance payments. Contact your insurance company to inquire about this and to make changes to your coverage.

You also have the option to look for a more affordable insurance coverage. Request a quote today, and compare the rates from multiple companies to find a better insurance coverage.
