GAP

Gap Protection

| Truck Gap Insurance

Are you fully covered?

Did you know that if you suffer the total loss or unrecovered theft of your truck, your insurance company will only pay the actual cash value of your truck, which may not be enough to pay off your remaining loan balance? Arrow’s Gap Protection covers the difference, so you won’t still owe money on an asset that no longer exists.

In the event of a total loss or unrecovered theft, your insurance company will most likely settle your claim based on the truck’s actual cash value or stated value, leaving you to deal with the “gap,” or unpaid balance of your loan.

Benefits

Why purchase truck gap insurance?

For several months after you buy your truck, it will depreciate faster than you pay down your loan, creating a ‘gap’ between the value of the truck and the loan balance. Gap Protection covers the financial gap between your primary insurance company’s settlement on a total loss or unrecovered theft and the remaining balance of your loan.
