SPRINGFIELD, Mo. -- Some auto insurance companies could return billions of dollars back to drivers in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Consumer Federation of America says companies that sell 82 percent of the auto insurance in America will be refunding or crediting drivers more than $6.5 billion in the upcoming months.
Stay-at-home orders around the United States have led to fewer drivers on the road and many cars sitting in driveways, prompting refunds, credits or reductions on premium from several companies.
According to USA Today, these car insurance companies are offering some sort of relief:
-AAA: 20% refund between for policyholders with insurance in effect from March 16 to May 15
-Allstate: 15% discount on premiums in April and May

-Safeco: 15% refund on April and May premiums starting April 7
