GAP Protection

You purchased your car for $18,000. Two years later, it’s totaled in an accident. Even though you still owe $13,000 on your loan, you only receive $9,000 from your insurance company. Why? Most insurance policies will only reimburse you for the actual cash value of your vehicle at the time of loss, even if you owe more.

Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) helps you protect your investment by covering the “gap” between the vehicle's value and the amount you still owe. In the event of a total loss—whether your vehicle is stolen or damaged beyond repair—GAP waives the difference between your insurance company’s settlement and your remaining loan balance, up to a maximum loan-to-value limit, less exclusions or limitations that may apply.

A car accident or theft is stressful enough. With GAP protection from Allied Solutions, you’ll have one less thing to worry about.

How does GAP work?
  • GAP protection goes into effect when you need it most – when your vehicle is stolen and isn't recovered, or totaled in an accident and cannot be repaired.
  • GAP waives the difference between your primary insurance carrier's settlement and the payoff of your loan, up to a maximum loan-to-value limit, and less delinquent payments, late charges, refundable services, warranty contracts, other insurance-related charges, and other exclusions or limitations that may apply. Included in this difference is your insurance deductible, up to $1,000.
  • The deductible is paid as part of the deficiency balance and is therefore only paid if there is a "gap" to pay on the loan.*
