Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP)5

GAP provides a little extra coverage beyond your auto insurance. If your vehicle is stolen or totaled, most insurance companies will only reimburse you up to the book value of your vehicle. That may mean you’re on the hook for the rest of your payments, or for a partial replacement cost. GAP may cover the difference between what the insurance company pays toward the loan, what is left of the loan balance, and the deductible up to $1,000.00. We also provide $1,000.00 toward the purchase of a replacement vehicle if you get an auto loan with us within 90 days.

GAP can be added to any auto loan within one (1) year of the purchase date. To add GAP, call us at (865) 544-5400 or visit any branch!
