Liberty Mutual Insurance Review 2018: Complaints, Ratings and Coverage

Liberty Mutual is the nation’s sixth-largest auto insurer based on direct premiums written in 2017. In addition to home and auto insurance, Liberty Mutual offers a vast array of personal and commercial insurance policies.

Liberty Mutual auto insurance

Liberty Mutual offers standard auto policies to which you can add several types of optional coverage, including:

• Accident forgiveness: Your premium won’t increase as a result of your first accident. This coverage is not available in California and may vary by state.
• New car replacement: If your car is totaled in the first year and first 15,000 miles, you’ll be reimbursed the cost of a new car, not just the depreciated value.

• Better car replacement takes new car replacement a step further: If your car is totaled at any age or mileage, you’ll be reimbursed for a car one year newer and with 15,000 fewer miles on it than your totaled car.
• Deductible fund: Liberty Mutual reduces your collision deductible by $100 when you add this feature to your policy, and another $100 every year after that. Even if you’re in an accident, the deductible doesn’t go up.

Teachers’ Auto Insurance is a unique offering from Liberty Mutual. It comes at no extra cost to teachers and includes:

• Vandalism loss protection: No deductible if your vehicle is vandalized during school-related events or on school property.
• Personal property coverage: Liberty Mutual will reimburse you up to $2,500 per occurrence if your teaching materials or school-owned property are stolen or damaged while in your vehicle
• Collision coverage: There’s no deductible if your car is damaged in an accident while driving it for school business. (In Pennsylvania, a $100 deductible applies.)

Liberty Mutual home insurance

Liberty Mutual offers homeowners insurance policies with standard features, plus the following additional coverage options:

Coverage for valuables pays for items such as jewelry, art or camera equipment if they’re damaged or destroyed.

Inflation protection: Liberty Mutual will automatically adjust your coverage limits at renewal time to account for inflation and also apply a discount to your premium, but some limitations apply.

Home Protector Plus is an upgrade package you can add to your base homeowners insurance policy with Liberty Mutual. It includes:

• Expanded coverage: Pays unforeseen costs when you’re rebuilding your home.
• Personal property replacement: Liberty Mutual will pay to replace your damaged or destroyed items with new ones after a claim, not just give you a check for the depreciated value. The company will also help you locate the exact replacement items, or find the closest match.

Liberty Mutual life insurance

Life insurance and annuities are issued by Liberty Life Assurance Co. of Boston, a subsidiary of Liberty Mutual. It offers term, whole and universal life insurance.
