Comprehensive and collision coverage

If you're financing or leasing your motorhome or travel trailer, lenders typically require RV comprehensive and collision coverage. If you own your RV outright, these coverages are optional. But we understand the financial and emotional investment many RV owners put into their home away from home. To protect your prized asset against damage, it may be wise to add comprehensive and collision coverage.

Comprehensive covers events out of your control, including RV theft, vandalism, fire, hitting an animal, and weather-related issues. Collision covers your RV if you collide with another vehicle, tree, fence, guardrail, or any object.
