YOUR AUTO INSURANCE DOES NOT COVER
EVERYTHING
In the event your vehicle is deemed
a total loss due to an accident or theft, your auto insurance policy
will usually cover only the actual cash value or market value of your
vehicle less a deductible. This settlement could be significantly
less than the amount you owe to your lender or leasing company. The
final result is a financial GAP where you must make up the difference,
which could mean thousands of dollars out of your pocket.
Guaranteed Auto Protection Plus Protects individuals who finance a new or used vehicle.
PROTECTION THROUGH GUARANTEED
AUTO PROTECTION PLUS
In the current market, during
the first few years that you own your vehicle, your loan/lease balance
can be higher than the actual value of your vehicle, as
a result of depreciation. As your vehicle's value declines, your loan/lease
balance may decline more slowly, resulting in a financial gap. If
your vehicle were stolen or totaled in an accident, you would be liable
to pay the difference between your insurance settlement and your outstanding
loan/lease balance.
Guaranteed Auto Protection Plus covers the difference between
the actual cash value of your vehicle
and the loan/lease balance, less delinquent payments, late charges,
refundable service warranty contracts and other insurance-related
charges.
Guaranteed Auto Protection Plus will even cover your
auto insurance deductible of $500 or $1,000. The actual amount depends on your credit union's program limits. Ask
your lender/loan officer for details.
