AAA Insurance Review
AAA insurance is rated 3.4/5 by WalletHub’s editors, based on customer reviews, sample insurance quotes, and ratings from organizations such as J.D. Power and the Better Business Bureau (BBB). AAA customer reviews highlight the company’s affordable rates, but its NAIC rating is 15.46, which means AAA has received more complaints than the average car insurance provider its size. Customer complaints tend to focus on poor customer service and delayed claims payments.

AAA Home Insurance Review Highlights
AAA offers a wide variety of homeowners, renters and condo insurance options to suit a range of budgets and needs. There are lots of discounts, too, as well as 24/7 claims support by phone.
For homeowners, AAA offers insurance policies through a broad network of affiliated insurance companies. This means if you contact AAA to get a homeowners insurance quote, it will come through the trusted AAA partner company, like Auto Club Insurance or MemberSelect Insurance, that serves your region. Policies cover the cost to repair or rebuild your home if it’s damaged because of a covered loss, and they also cover damage to detached structures on your property like sheds, fences and swimming pools.
For renters, insurance from AAA protects you and your belongings from covered risks like storm damage, natural disasters, and theft. It covers the full cost to replace or restore your personal belongings, and there’s extra coverage for big-ticket items like jewelry, furs, art collections and more.
Finally, condo insurance through AAA offers coverage where your master condo policy falls short. In addition to covering walls, floors, ceilings and electrical fixtures, AAA condo insurance covers appliances, cabinets, countertops and window treatments.
Bottom Line: Is AAA Insurance a Good Company?
AAA is a pretty good insurance company that has built a reputation for providing reliable policies to its members at affordable prices, with the help of generous discounts. In addition to its auto, homeowners, and life insurance policies, AAA offers coverage for boats, motorcycles, pets and more.
AAA scores well when it comes to its claims process and transparency. However, it could make improvements in the customer service department. To learn more, read WalletHub’s complete AAA insurance review, or check out some of the reviews from fellow consumers below.
