The GAP Advantage
Closing the gap in protecting your current and future vehicle investment.
What is GAP?
Guaranteed Asset Protection or GAP, takes care of your remaining loan balance, protecting you, the borrower, from the burden of paying off the amount still owed. The GAP settlement may include your insurance deductible up to $1,000.
What Does GAP Cover?
In the unfortunate event of an accident or theft of your vehicle, in which your insurer deems it a total loss, GAP would cover the following:
- The remaining balance of your loan not covered by insurance
- $1,000 towards the financing of a replacement vehicle if financed through Wildfire
How GAP Works
Original purchase price
$25,000
Remaining loan balance after accident/theft
$20,000
Your insurance settlement will only pay you
$16,000

Depreciation Protection
If your vehicle is ever totaled or stolen and not recovered at anytime over the term of your loan, the Depreciation Protection Waiver (DPW) will roll on up to help you out by protecting the positive equity in your vehicle.
DPW is Perfect if You:
- Put money down or have equity in your vehicle.
- Make accelerated loan payments.
- Want protection from vehicle depreciation.
- Desire peace of mind knowing the money you invested could be protected.
DPW Benefits:
- Life of loan protection.
- No mileage, make/model, or vehicle year restrictions.
- Open enrollment.
- 100% refundable for the first 60 days.
- Accidental Death protection included, which provides for cancellation of up to $1,000 of your outstanding loan balance if you die in an accident.
DPW Fast Facts:
- Cost of Depreciation: New vehicles lose an average of $15,000 in value during the first five years of ownership.
- Average Annual Depreciation Cost: The average cost for a small SUV is $2,840 a year (AAA, “Your Driving Costs”).
How it Works:
Depreciation Protection will waive some or all of your loan balance in the event that you lose your vehicle.
The waiver benefit is equal to the difference between your vehicle's MSRP or retail value at the time you purchased DPW, less the amount of your total loan balance at the time you lose your vehicle*. Check out the chart below for an example!
Time Since Purchase | Purchase Price | Outstanding Loan Balance | DPW Benefit at Total Loss |
---|---|---|---|
Brand New | $30,000 | $28,500 | $1,500 |
Six Months | $30,000 | $26,681 | $3,319 |
One Year | $30,000 | $24,469 | $5,531 |
Three Years | $30,000 | $15,282 | $10,000** |
Five Years | $30,000 | $5,530 | 5,530 |
* The benefit cannot exceed the DPW addendum limit or your outstanding loan balance at the time of total vehicle loss.
** The Maximum Waiver Benefit can vary depending on level of protection selected and/or offered. Please reference the waiver addendum for specifics regarding maximum waiver amounts. The $10,000 Waiver Benefit applies here because waiver amount will not exceed the lesser of the maximum amount listed in the waiver addendum or outstanding loan balance at total loss.
