What Does Guaranteed
Asset Protection (GAP) Cover?

Refinancing your car loan with a GAP waiver (insurance) protects you from paying out of pocket following a total loss. It’s not uncommon to owe more on an auto loan than your insurer is able to provide for you. With GAP insurance, you don’t have to worry about paying the difference between your loan and your car’s actual cash value.

Here’s an example of what may happen:

You refinance your car with GAP insurance. A few months in, the vehicle is stolen from your driveway. The police are looking for it but aren’t hopeful. You file a claim with your insurance company for the theft. They agree to file the claim, but they say the value of the car right now is just $15,000. You owe $17,000 on your loan, though.
In this case, your GAP coverage pays the $2,000 difference for you. It even contributes up to $1,000 towards your insurance deductible. That way, you can pay off the loan and go on to purchase a new car.

If you did not have GAP insurance on your refinanced car, you would be without a car and owe your lender $2,000. That’s money you could be putting towards the down payment on a new car. If your loan to value ratio is more than 70%, GAP can be a very helpful product.
You might be a great driver, but accidents and theft still happen through no fault of your own. GAP can minimize your risks and make a bad situation a bit easier on both your mind and your budget.
