Welcome to Meadowland Ford Trucks GAP Insurance

What is Gap insurance?

Gap insurance covers the gap between what you owe on your auto loan and the current market value of your auto. If your insurance company decides your vehicle or motor home is a total loss, your collision coverage will only pay you the current market value. It will not cover any amount you may still owe on your loan.

Gap coverage does not cover any interest the lender charges you, late fees, and missed payments. Insurance companies are not required to offer you Gap coverage, but if you ask for it, they are required to sell it to you.

How Gap coverage works

Example:
Loan balance: $32,000
Cash value of vehicle if its destroyed: $27,000

Payoff WITHOUT Gap coverage: $27,000 - less your deductible
Loan balance after payment: $5,000 - may vary if you have a deductible
You will owe $5,000 dollars

Payoff WITH Gap coverage: $32,000
Loan balance after payment: $0 (may vary if you have a deductible)

If you think you may need the additional coverage, ask your insurance agent or company about Gap coverage when you shop for a new vehicle or motor home.

Other options

If your insurance company determines that your vehicle is totaled and you don’t have Gap coverage, you may want to contact your lender about possibly extending your existing loan to your replacement vehicle. This is called a collateral exchange. The lender will add the payoff amount (after the insurance payment) on your existing loan to your replacement vehicle loan. Most lenders will do this, but not all. Contact your lender to find out if this is an option.
