A recent car insurance study revealed that 70% of consumers have bought car insurance from the same company for a minimum of four years, and practically 40% of car insurance customers have never even compared quotes to find cheaper rates. Many consumers in Tulsa could save nearly $551 a year just by shopping around, but they underestimate how much money they would save if they replace their high priced policy.
The best way to get affordable Ford Flex insurance is to compare quotes annually from insurers in Tulsa.
- Get an understanding of coverages and the modifications you can make to drop your rates. Many things that cause high rates such as at-fault accidents and a poor credit rating can be eliminated by making minor changes in your lifestyle.
- Quote rates from direct, independent, and exclusive agents. Exclusive and direct companies can only give rate quotes from a single company like GEICO or Allstate, while independent agents can give you price quotes for a wide range of companies. View a list of agents

- Provide notification to your current agent or company of your decision to cancel your current car insurance policy and submit payment and a completed application to the new company. As soon as you receive it, put the certificate of insurance in your vehicle.
A key point to remember is to use the same liability limits and deductibles on each quote request and and to get rate quotes from as many car insurance companies as possible. This provides a fair price comparison and a complete selection of prices.

Choosing the best Ford vehicle insurance in Oklahoma is an important decision
Despite the high cost of buying insurance for a Ford Flex in Tulsa, paying for insurance may be required for several reasons.
- Almost all states have mandatory liability insurance requirements which means you are required to buy a specific minimum amount of liability protection in order to be legal. In Oklahoma these limits are 25/50/25 which means you must have $25,000 of bodily injury coverage per person, $50,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and $25,000 of property damage coverage.
- If your Ford Flex has a loan, most banks will make it mandatory that you carry insurance to ensure the loan is repaid in case of a total loss. If you do not pay your insurance premiums, the bank may buy a policy for your Ford at a more expensive rate and force you to pay for the much more expensive policy.
- Insurance safeguards both your Ford Flex and your personal assets. It will also provide coverage for medical bills for not only you but also any passengers injured in an accident. One policy coverage, liability insurance, also covers all legal expenses up to the policy limit in the event you are sued. If your car is damaged in a storm or accident, collision and comprehensive (also known as other-than-collision) coverage will cover the damage repairs after a deductible is paid.
The benefits of insuring your car greatly outweigh the cost, especially for larger claims. On average, a vehicle owner in Tulsa is currently overpaying as much as $865 each year so it’s important to compare rates every year to be sure current rates are still competitive.
