What is GAP?
Ever worry your auto loan could be bigger than your damaged vehicle’s worth? GAP has you covered.
How GAP works
- Standard auto insurance reimburses you for a car’s current value, not what you still owe on your loan.
- The gap: If your loan amount is higher than the car’s current value, you’re on the hook for the difference.
- GAP Coverage bridges the gap: It waives the difference between your car's current value and your loan balance, so you won't be stuck owing money on a totaled car.¹
Example coverage
- Vehicle’s Actual Cash Value (ACV): $20,000
- Loan amount: $25,000
- Deductible: $500
- Insurance payout: $19,500 (ACV less deductible)
- Loan balance after insurance payout: $5,500
GAP coverage would waive the remaining $5,500 so you wouldn't be left with a car loan you can't afford.
Benefits
- Peace of mind: GAP covers the difference between your vehicle's depreciated value and your loan balance if it's totaled or stolen.
- Extra cushion: Get an additional $1,000 towards a replacement vehicle purchase if financed through PenFed.
- Affordable protection: Priced competitively compared to dealership options.
- Convenient enrollment: Easily add GAP to your PenFed loan.
What is ADR?
Auto Deductible Reimbursement (ADR):
Accidents happen, but your finances don't have to take the hit.
- Get back on track after an accident: ADR reimburses your deductible up to $500 for any covered loss on your car insurance policy.
- Stay in control: Use your ADR benefit for any covered repair or replacement, from fender benders to major collisions.
- Simple and seamless: Just purchase a GAP policy with PenFed, and ADR comes included. No extra fees or paperwork needed. Coverage effective upon enrollment and continues for 2 years.
