Does Progressive cover pothole damage?
I messed up my alignment hitting a pothole that I couldn't avoid on a busy street. Can I make a claim with Progressive?

Collision coverage
typically covers pothole damage. That said, you’ll need to assess the damage and your deductible to determine whether you could submit a claim. If you have a high deductible, you may want to weigh the cost of repairs against it. If the cost of repairs is less than your deductible, you can’t submit a claim. If the cost of repairs is more than your deductible, you’ll want to determine if it’s worth a possible rate increase.
Should you decide to submit a claim to Progressive and your rate increases, shop around. Insurer’s rates vary. You may be able to find a lower rate elsewhere. You can request car insurance quotes yourself or use the
