Your auto loan must be held by Veridian, all Veridian loans must be paid current, and other Veridian accounts must not be overdrawn for the money to be deposited.
GAP, or Guaranteed Asset Protection, is a supplement to your primary auto insurance. If you’re purchasing a vehicle with less than a 20% down-payment, or trading in a vehicle for less than you owe, GAP coverage may be right for you. You can add GAP coverage to a loan within 60 days of booking and cancel at any time.
You can be protected against major mechanical expenses anywhere in the U.S., and there is no deductible on covered parts or labor. Plans also include Rental Car Allowance and 24/7 Emergency Road-side Service.
