GAP Protection Benefits for Your Car

If your vehicle is stolen, accidentally damaged beyond repair, or otherwise declared an insured total loss, most standard auto policies only cover the actual cash value of the vehicle...minus your deductible. Unfortunately, you remain financially liable for any shortfall between the net insurance settlement and what you owe on your loan. You could owe thousands of dollars on a vehicle that you no longer have. GAP protection covers the financial shortfall between your primary insurance company's total loss settlement and the remaining balance of your loan. Additionally, GAP protection covers your out-of-pocket deductible on your loan policy.*
