Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP)

This isn’t an easy thing to talk about. But unfortunately, accidents do happen. And if you’re early enough in your financing contract and are involved in more than a fender bender, the amount for your insurance company to fix your vehicle may very well be higher than the amount you owe.

This is a financial gap—the amount your insurer pays falls short of your finance agreement balance. If your Audi is ever declared a total loss due to an accident, theft, or natural disaster, your gap and your primary insurance deductible can easily add to up to thousands of dollars.

Audi Pure Protection Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) may help by waiving some or all of the difference between your primary insurance settlement and the outstanding balance on your vehicle’s financing. GAP may also help provide coverage for your insurance deductible, subject to the terms and conditions of the program.


GAP benefits:*
• Waives some or all of the difference between your primary insurance settlement and the outstanding balance on your vehicle’s financing due to a covered total loss⁠*
• No maximum dollar amount on covered losses waived⁠*
• Includes waiver of up to $1,000 for your primary insurance deductible⁠**
• Transferable to another private party for a fee if your finance agreement is assumed***
• Cancelable at any time, subject to a fee after 30 days***


How GAP helps protect your investment:

Here’s an example of how you are protected by a GAP product if the vehicle is declared a total loss:*

Insurance assessment of vehicle market value at time of total loss: $51,000
Primary insurance deductible: – $1,000
Market value of vehicle less primary insurance deductible: $50,000
Outstanding finance agreement balance at time of total loss: $55,000
Potential amount you owe: = $5,000
Waived by GAP: – $5,000
Out-of-pocket expenses with GAP : $0

The example above is for illustrative purposes only. Actual GAP Waiver Benefit calculations will vary based on your specific circumstances and may not result in a GAP Waiver Benefit.

GAP is not available for purchase on a lease vehicle.
