Insurance
During the first few years that you own your vehicle, the loan balance can be higher than the actual value of your vehicle, as a result of depreciation. As your vehicle's value declines, your loan balance can be significantly higher. If your vehicle is stolen, or totaled in an accident, you would be liable to pay the difference between your insurance settlement and your outstanding loan balance. GAP Advantage covers the difference (or "gap") between what you owe on the vehicle and what it is worth.
Features
- GAP Advantage covers the difference between the market value of your vehicle and the loan balance, less delinquent payments, late charges, refundable service warranty contracts and other insurance related charges
- In the event a deficiency exists, our program will cover your insurance deductible up to $1,000 *
| For Example: | |
| Your vehicle's actual cash value | $ 13,000 |
| Less your deductible | $ 1,000 |
| Insurance settlement | $ 12,000 |
| Loan balance after one year | $ 15,000 |
| Insurance settlement | $ 12,000 |
| GAP Advantage pays | $ 3,000 |
Without GAP Advantage coverage, you would be required to pay this $3,000 in order to pay off your loan balance.
GAP Advantage is a loan deficiency waiver and is not offered as insurance coverage. Contact the Credit Union at 562.598.9007 or 714.893.5111 for more information about purchasing GAP Advantage.
