Protect your vehicle: Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) insurance and Mechanical Repair Coverage

MSGCU makes it easy to protect the vehicle you are financing through two valuable add-on products available at the time of closing:

  • Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) insurance: Covers the difference between your remaining financing balance and the insurance payout if your vehicle is totaled or stolen. Without GAP coverage, that difference comes out of your pocket.

Both products are designed to complement your vehicle financing and can be discussed with the Bloomfield Township branch team when you apply. Interested in a GAP quote, call MSGCU at (866) 674-2848.
