What is loan or lease gap insurance?<\/h2>

Loan\/lease gap coverage may help protect you from having to make payments on a totaled car while you still owe money on a loan or lease. Most new cars lose value the second they\u2019re driven off the dealer\u2019s lot. In some cases, this can be by several thousands of dollars.<\/p>

If you financed your car or leased it, you could owe more than what your car is worth.
This can become financially significant if your new car is damaged beyond repair<\/a> in a covered accident soon after purchase.<\/p>

Loan\/lease gap coverage helps pay for the depreciation of your car. It covers the \u201cgap\u201d between your car\u2019s current value and how much you paid for it. Eventually, the gap between what you owe on your car and its market value will diminish. Regularly keep track of these two figures. If you owe less than the car is worth, you may no longer need gap coverage.<\/p>

Is gap insurance mandatory in NJ?<\/h2>

Gap coverage is not required by the state of New Jersey<\/a>. It can be a smart purchase \u2013 especially for those with a new car. Some lenders may require that you purchase it when you finance or lease a car.<\/p>

How much is gap insurance in NJ?<\/h2>

Protecting your newer car with gap insurance is more affordable than you might think. Plymouth Rock customers only pay an average of $43* for gap coverage on their car insurance premium.<\/p>

Is gap insurance taxable in NJ?<\/h2>

The purchase of gap coverage, when provided by the lease company, is subject to sales tax. However, gap coverage provided by a third party insurer like Plymouth Rock Assurance is exempt from sales tax.<\/p>

When should coverage on my vehicle begin?<\/h2>

Coverage should start before you drive your new car off the dealer\u2019s lot. You\u2019ll want to ensure your car is covered from the moment you take possession of it. Our local agents or insurance professionals will be able to advise you on what\u00a0other\u00a0coverages<\/a> you may need.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
