PROTECT YOUR LOANS
Protect your investment with GAP and MRC loan programs.
​Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) Plus
Don’t let a wrecked vehicle wreck your finances. Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) is a great way to protect your finances if the value of your vehicle is less than the amount of your car loan. A good rule of thumb is to assume your new vehicle will depreciate more than 20% after the first year you own it, half of which occurs the minute you drive it off the lot.* This leaves a gap between what you owe on your loan and the value of your vehicle if it’s deemed a total loss due to an accident or theft.
Our GAP program may reduce or eliminate the gap between what your vehicle insurance will pay and what you owe on your loan. Plus, it helps you get into your next vehicle by reducing your loan at the credit union by $2,500. Our GAP Plus program includes Deductible Assistance which is designed to provide financial relief when your vehicle is damaged but not deemed a total loss.
If repairs cost more than your deductible, the deductible amount is applied to your vehicle loan at the credit union, reducing what you owe.
Chat with us today to learn more about adding GAP Plus with Deductible Assistance to your vehicle loan so you can worry less about tomorrow.

Mechanical Repair Coverage (MRC)
Whether you depend on your vehicle for work or getting your family to school and activities, you need transportation that’s safe and reliable. The older your vehicle, the more it takes to keep it in good working order. Not making small repairs can lead to even more expensive repairs. Ignoring repairs can be dangerous.
