GAP Insurance

Gap Protection… The Smart & Affordable Choice to Protect your Valuable Investment.

A vehicle’s value often declines much faster than a loan or lease balance. The difference between this value and the balance is the GAP.

GAP Benefits:

  • Gives you peace of mind by avoiding financial uncertainty after a traumatic loss
  • Allows for a “clean slate” when financing your next purchase
  • Protects your investment
  • The cost can be added to your loan
SITUATION: Your vehicle is wrecked or stolen and not recovered. The value that your insurance company places on your car is much less than the outstanding loan balance. You are responsible for repaying the GAP which can be thousands of dollars.

SOLUTION: GAP Protection. For a very small charge your lender will ‘waive’ its right under the loan contract to collect this Gap amount. GAP Protection will pay off your remaining loan balance minus any deductible, past due payments and fees. This allows you the freedom to locate, purchase and finance your next vehicle.
