GAP-Guaranteed Auto Protection

Will your insurance pay off your loan if your car is totaled?  GAP protects you financially if your vehicle is totaled or stolen. 

Most People Learn About GAP Risk the Hard Way!  Most people believe that if their vehicle is totaled or stolen, their primary insurance will pay off their loan balances.  Well, think again!  If your vehicle is totaled or stolen, your primary insurance carrier will usually pay only the actual cash value (current market value) of your vehicle less your deductible.  This amount could be substantially lower than your loan balance.  The final result is a financial GAP where you must pay the difference between your loan balance and your insurance settlement, which could mean thousands of dollars out of your pocket.  That's why many owners have chosen GAP (Guaranteed Auto Protection).  GAP coverage eliminates the out-of-pocket expense you would incur to pay off your loan should your vehicle be stolen or totaled. 

Car-Shopping or Refinancing?  Speak to one of our loan specialists about purchasing GAP by calling 800-410-0501 (option 2) or by email (loans@lmfcu.com).  The current cost for GAP for LM Federal members is only $229 and can be financed in your auto loan.  We dare you to ask the dealer what they charge for GAP!  Most dealers charge between $400-$700 for the same coverage!
