Staying Covered No Matter What 

Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) could help cover the costs that standard car insurance can't.1 It's an optional plan that may cover the difference between your outstanding loan amount and the cash value of your vehicle. Adding GAP to your new or existing auto loan may be an affordable way to protect yourself if your car is totaled in an accident or stolen. It could also cover up to $1,000 of your deductible.

How Much Does GAP Cost?

For new and eligible used vehicles, Navy Federal charges a flat enrollment fee of $399. You have the option to pay for it in a lump sum or finance it into your loan, which increases the overall cost (Note: California Active Duty and Active Reserve Duty servicemembers cannot finance the fee).

If you choose to add the fee to your loan amount, your monthly payment would probably increase by only a few dollars. For instance, on a $24,500, 60-month loan at 4.5% APR, your monthly payment would be $458 without GAP and $465 with it.

Is My Car Eligible?

GAP is available for new and existing Navy Federal auto loans. It covers most automobiles, trucks and SUVs no older than 7 years. Commercial vehicles, including ridesharing and food delivery autos, are not eligible. For more information about what GAP covers, visit our questions and answers page.

Is GAP Right for Me?

You may want to consider GAP if:

  • your loan had a 0 or low down payment
  • your car make and model depreciates quickly
  • you drive more than 15,000 miles a year (accelerating your car’s depreciation)
