Protect Your Vehicle Loan from Unexpected Loss

If your vehicle is ever stolen or declared a total loss due to an accident, your insurance payout might not cover your entire loan balance. That’s where GAP comes in. GAP (Guaranteed Asset Protection) may cover the difference between what your insurance pays and what you still owe—helping you avoid a major financial setback.

Key Features

  • Buy Anytime - GAP can be added at any point during the life of your loan.
  • Flexible Payment Options - You can include the $499 GAP fee in your loan payment or pay it upfront by cash, check, or credit card.
  • $1,000 Credit Toward Your Next Loan - Finance your next vehicle with USSFCU within 120 days of your GAP claim payout and we’ll credit $1,000 to your new loan.
  • 90-Day Free-Look Period - Cancel within 90 days for a full refund—no cancellation fee.

Bonus Protection: Auto Deductible Reimbursement (ADR)

When you enroll in GAP, you’ll automatically receive Auto Deductible Reimbursement (ADR) at no extra cost. Here’s what it includes:

  • Reimburses up to $500 per collision or comprehensive claim
  • Unlimited claims for 3 full years from the date you enroll
  • Applies to any personal-use vehicle you own or lease and insure under your name (borrower or co-borrower)

 Note: ADR does not apply to RVs, motorcycles, boats, or vehicles used for commercial purposes.

To file an ADR claim:
Visit www.assuranceplus.com/claims or call 1-877-296-4892
Claims must be submitted within 90 days of the loss.

GAP is available for most personal-use vehicles, including:

  • Motor Vehicles (cars and trucks)
  • Power Sports

GAP is not insurance; it is an optional debt cancellation product. GAP will not affect your application for credit or the terms of any credit agreement you have with us. Certain eligibility requirements, conditions and exclusions may apply. You will receive the contract before you are required to pay for GAP. You should carefully read the contract for a full explanation of the terms. If you choose GAP, adding the GAP Fee to the amount financed under your contract will increase the cost of GAP. You may cancel GAP at any time. If you cancel GAP within 90 days you will receive a full refund of any fee paid. GAP purchased from state-chartered credit unions in FL, GA, IA, IN, UT, VT, and WI may be with or without a refund provision. Prices of the refundable and non-refundable products are likely to differ. If you purchase a refundable product, you may cancel at any time during the loan and receive a refund of the unearned fee. GAP purchased from state-chartered credit unions in CO, MO or SC may be canceled at any time during the loan and receive a refund of the unearned fee.

*Replacement vehicle must be financed within 90 days of the date your primary insurance company pays the claim on a total loss.
