That's right—the car I purchased at Access Ford Lincoln of Corpus Christi is just perfect for me! I really wanted to protect my investment so I looked into gap insurance. I found out that:
- If I have an accident and total my new baby (boo hoo!), my insurance will only pay for what the vehicle is worth—not how much I paid for it.
- If I owe more on my loan than what the vehicle is worth, I could be left making payments on a car I no longer have!
- Gap insurance will cover the difference between what the car is worth at the time and what I owe on my loan.
- If I pay down the loan so I no longer have a gap, I can cancel the gap insurance.
- Gap insurance is available from my dealer or my insurance agent.
- Say you wish to lease your new car—you may be required to purchase gap insurance as a precaution.
