What makes an insurer the best car insurance company isn’t simply one, or even two or three metrics. Having a fair price or having strong customer service alone isn’t enough. It’s a combination of many factors that result in a well-rounded and trustworthy car insurance company — one that will be there when you need them after a claim and one that provides strong customer service paired with fair rates.
