GAP

Guaranteed Asset Protection

GAP is a voluntary, non-insurance product designed to waive the remaining loan balance not covered by the borrower’s primary insurance carrier settlement in the event of a total loss or unrecovered theft.

 

The actual cash value of your vehicle as determined by your primary insurance carrier could be less than the actual balance you owe on your loan. In the event of a total loss or theft, GAP waives the difference between your outstanding loan balance and the actual cash value (ACV) of the vehicle up to the maximum LTV %. GAP may also cover up to $1,000 of your deductible if there is a “gap” after the primary insurance settlement is paid. The deductible is covered as part of the deficiency balance settlement. Not available in NY or AK.

Consider This

Let’s say your one-year-old financed vehicle is totaled beyond repair.

  • Your loan balance is: $15,000
  • Your insurance settlement is: $10,000
  • Based on your vehicle’s market value: $11,000
  • Less your insurance deductible: $1,000

Total amount you owe without GAP Advantage: $5,000

Total amount you owe with GAP Advantage: $0

PLUS $1,000 credit towards the financing of your replacement vehicle!
