Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) with Deductible Assistance
If your vehicle is deemed a total loss due to an accident or stolen, there can be a significant gap between what you owe on your loan and what your auto insurance will cover. GAP may reduce or even eliminate that shortfall in the event your vehicle is deemed a total loss.
GAP with Deductible Assistance2 is designed to provide financial relief when your vehicle is damaged, but not deemed a total loss. If auto repairs cost more than your deductible, the deductible amount is applied to your loan, reducing what you owe.
Here are some quick facts about GAP with Deductible Assistance:
- Available on both new and used vehicle loans.
- Protects the difference between what your vehicle insurance will pay and what you owe on your loan, if your vehicle is declared a total loss due to theft or accident.
- GAP fees can be added to your loan balance and included in your monthly loan payment.
