From my understanding, your parent's would also have to be members in order for you to qualify for a USAA membership. Typically only children or spouses of USAA members are eligible, but I'm unclear on if that can skip a generation.

The best way to get the most accurate information would be contacting USAA to speak to an insurance agent directly. Good luck! And don't forget, The Zebra can help you compare car insurance quickly and easily if you end up needing to go with another provider.

Does the name on the title affect car insurance rates?

No, your rates should not change by putting the car in your son's name if he is already listed on the policy. Who the car is registered under does not impact the rate at all. You just need to make sure all drivers are listed on the policy. Good luck and if you have any other questions, don…

If you only have liability coverage then you won't be able to file a damage claim. Your policy would need to include collision coverage at the time of the incident for you to be able to get it repaired through your insurance provider. Unfortunately, you aren't able to add any additional c…
