If you are still deciding how much protection your vehicle needs, compare <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amssurity.co.ke\/blog\/buy-comprehensive-car-insurance-in-kenya\/\">comprehensive and third-party car insurance in Kenya<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Private_use_is_different_from_ride-hailing_use\"><\/span><strong>Private use is different from ride-hailing use<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A private-motor policy normally covers the uses stated in the schedule, such as social, domestic, leisure and permitted personal-business use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ride-hailing, taxi, delivery and other hire-and-reward activities create a different risk. The actual use must be disclosed and accepted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, Fidelity\u2019s published motor-private proposal form excludes vehicles used for hire or reward. Other motor policies also rely on the limitations as to use shown in the policy schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A private comprehensive certificate should therefore not be assumed to cover Uber, Bolt, Little Cab, paid passenger transport or commercial deliveries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Compare_these_policy_terms_before_the_premium\"><\/span><strong>Compare these policy terms before the premium<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Excesses\"><\/span><strong>1. Excesses<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An excess is the portion of a covered loss that the policyholder must bear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check the excess applicable to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Accidental damage<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Theft<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Young or inexperienced drivers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Unauthorised drivers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Total loss<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Under-declaration of value<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A quotation that is KSh 5,000 cheaper could produce a much higher cost after an accident if its excess is larger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amssurity.co.ke\/blog\/how-much-is-car-insurance-in-kenya\/\">how much car insurance costs in Kenya<\/a> explains how rates, minimum premiums, statutory charges and optional benefits affect the final amount payable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Excess protector can reduce or remove an applicable excess when the claim meets the policy conditions. Its price and availability vary by insurer and vehicle value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Current Amssurity terms show this variation clearly. Intra Africa prices excess protector at 0.25% of vehicle value, subject to a KSh 5,000 minimum. Old Mutual applies 0.25%, minimum KSh 2,500, below KSh 3 million, while the reviewed structure includes it from KSh 3 million. SanlamAllianz applies 0.25%, minimum KSh 5,000, up to KSh 1.5 million and includes it above that value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These figures should always be reconfirmed in the final quotation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Free_benefits\"><\/span><strong>2. Free benefits<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Comprehensive policies commonly include benefits such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Windscreen<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Entertainment equipment<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Towing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Emergency medical expenses<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Roadside assistance<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The useful question is not whether the benefit appears on the quotation. Ask how much it covers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A KSh 30,000 windscreen limit may be adequate for one vehicle and insufficient for another with specialised glass, cameras or sensors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check the monetary limit, number of permitted claims, applicable excess and whether the benefit must be reinstated after use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Optional_benefits\"><\/span><strong>3. Optional benefits<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Common optional additions include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Excess protector<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Political violence and terrorism<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Courtesy car<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Loss of use<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Road rescue<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enhanced windscreen<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Personal accident benefits<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Courtesy car and loss of use should be examined separately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Courtesy-car cover may provide a temporary replacement vehicle under defined circumstances. Loss-of-use cover usually pays a stated daily cash amount for a limited period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Current Amssurity quotations include courtesy-car options priced at KSh 3,000 under CIC and Intra Africa. Old Mutual\u2019s reviewed quotation applies KSh 3,000 for vehicles below KSh 3 million and KSh 8,000 above that value. Fidelity\u2019s reviewed loss-of-use benefit pays KSh 3,000 per day for up to 10 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The claim trigger, waiting period and number of days must still be checked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">See our guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amssurity.co.ke\/blog\/motor-insurance-upgrades-in-kenya\/\">motor insurance upgrades in Kenya <\/a>for a closer look at excess protection, political violence, loss of use, courtesy car and road-rescue benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Repair_and_settlement_terms_matter\"><\/span><strong>Repair and settlement terms matter<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before buying comprehensive cover, ask what would happen after:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Repairable accident damage<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A proposed cash settlement<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A total loss<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Confirm whether repairs must use an approved garage, when an assessor becomes involved and whether work requires prior insurer approval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For total loss, ask how the settlement will be calculated. The insured value should not automatically be treated as a guaranteed payout. The result may depend on pre-accident market value, underinsurance, applicable excess, outstanding premium, financier interest and salvage treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These questions become particularly important for high-value, financed, rare or modified vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is equally important to understand what happens after an incident. Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amssurity.co.ke\/blog\/car-insurance-claims-in-kenya\/\">car insurance claims guide for Kenya<\/a> explains the reporting, evidence, assessment and decision stages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_car_insurance_be_paid_in_instalments\"><\/span><strong>Can car insurance be paid in instalments?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amssurity\u2019s current motor panel generally supports a 40%\u201330%\u201330% payment arrangement, subject to insurer approval and the agreed payment dates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amssurity Insurance is also an appointed CIC agent and can arrange CIC Easy Bima for eligible private vehicles. Easy Bima allows the annual motor premium to be paid in up to 12 monthly instalments.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before choosing instalments, confirm the initial deposit, due dates, total payable premium and what happens if an instalment is missed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_complaint_statistics_do_not_create_a_motor_ranking\"><\/span><strong>Why complaint statistics do not create a motor ranking<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The IRA\u2019s Q3 2025 Claims Settlement Report recorded 439 complaints across general insurance and classified 75.4% as delayed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The report did not identify all those complaints as motor claims and does not provide a motor-insurer ranking. The figure therefore cannot establish that 75.4% of motor complaints involved delays or show which insurer settles motor claims faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amssurity does not
