What is Ford GAP Insurance?
Ford GAP insurance (Guaranteed Asset Protection) is an optional add-on to your car insurance that helps bridge the gap between what your standard car insurance company pays out in the event of a total loss (your car being stolen or written off) and the amount you still owe on your financing or lease.
Here’s how it works:
- Your Ford depreciates in value over time. This means that by the time you pay off your car loan or lease, the car’s market value might be less than what you still owe.
- If your Ford is stolen or deemed a total loss, your standard car insurance company will typically only pay out the current market value of the car.
- If the market value isn’t enough to cover your remaining loan or lease balance, you’ll be left with a financial gap to pay. This can be a significant burden, especially if you haven’t had time to build up equity in your Ford.
- This is where Ford GAP insurance comes in. It will pay the difference between the market value of your car and your loan or finance balance, so you won’t be stuck with any leftover debt.
