You buy a new car, you're happy, you're driving down the road, you are involved in a car accident. Not so happy anymore? If you have gap insurance, there may not be a need to fret too much. Most car insurance policies only cover the depreciated value of your car. If you put a small amount down and have an extend period of time on your payment schedule or loan, you may be upside down, meaning you owe more on the vehicle than it is worth. This can be a sticky situation if that vehicle is in an accident because you will not be given enough money by your insurance company to either pay off or replace your car. This is where gap insurance comes in. Most companies offer gap insurance as a rider to their auto insurance policies. For an average of 7% - 10% of your premium, depending on where you live and what kind of car you drive, you can add gap insurance which will cover the full purchase price or replacement cost of your vehicle, no matter what its depreciated value is.
