GAP & mechanical breakdown protection

GAP

what is GAP?

GAP stands for Guaranteed Asset Protection. If your vehicle is declared a total loss as a result of an automobile accident or unrecovered theft, Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) waives all or part of the difference between your primary insurance company’s settlement and the payoff of your loan balance, up to a certain loan to value maximum.

GAP is designed for all drivers, whether you finance a new or used vehicle. It may even cover your insurance deductible – up to $1,0001 – as part of your claim settlement. And the cost of GAP can be financed with your loan.

GAP also provides you with a $1,000 credit towards the financing of a replacement vehicle.2
