YOUR AUTO INSURANCE
DOES NOT COVER EVERYTHING
In the event
your vehicle is deemed a total loss due to an accident or theft, your
auto insurance policy will usually cover only the actual cash value
or market value of your vehicle less a deductible. This settlement
could be significantly less than the amount you owe to your lender
or leasing company. The final result is a financial GAP where you
must make up the difference, which could mean thousands of dollars
out of your pocket.

who finance a new or used vehicle from
the financial GAP.
In the current market, during
the first few years that you own your vehicle, your loan/lease balance
can be higher than the actual value of your vehicle, as
a result of depreciation. As your vehicle's value declines, your loan/lease
balance may decline more slowly, resulting in a financial gap. If
your vehicle were stolen or totaled in an accident, you would be liable
to pay the difference between your insurance settlement and your outstanding
loan/lease balance.
