Better Protection. At a Lower Cost.
MEMBERS CHOICE™ Borrower Security1
If a protected life event happens to you (and you’re a protected borrower or co-borrower on the loan), PremierOne Credit Union will cancel or reduce repayment of your loan debt—helping to lessen your worries, and your family’s worries, about paying loans during a time when your income may be reduced or lost and paying other household bills becomes challenging.

Guaranteed Asset Protection
Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) offers protection against financial liability in the event the vehicle is totaled or stolen and never recovered. It's designed to eliminate or reduce your "out-of-pocket" expense for the remaining loan balance after loss settlement, and also makes purchasing a replacement vehicle easier. For just $599, Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) is now available for most Vehicle, Motorcycle, RV, Boat, Motor Home and Jet Ski loans2.
Benefits of GAP
- Available for new and used vehicles
- May also cover up to $1,000 of your deductible if there is a “gap” after the primary insurance settlement is paid. Not available in NY or AK.
- GAP Cost: $599
- Covers up to $50,000
- GAP covers the difference between your outstanding loan balance and the actual cash value (ACV) of the vehicle up to the maximum 130% LTV (RV, Boat & Motor Home 125% LTV)
- Asset Deductible Reimbursement (ADR) is complementary with GAP (if applicable)
Mechanical Breakdown Insurance
Mechanical Breakdown Insurance (MBI), is similar to an extended warranty from a dealer, except it may cost less for the same or better coverage. It is available for both new and used automobiles, has low deductibles, and allows you to go to the licensed repair facility of your choice in the United States and Canada3.
Benefits of MBI
- 24/7 Emergency Roadside Assistance & Towing
- Rental Car Allowance
- Free Look Period – 60 Days
- Consequential Damage Coverage (Elite & Enhanced Plans ONLY)

Depreciation Protection
Depreciation Protection (DPW) protects your vehicle equity and hedges against depreciation over the life of the loan. In the event of a total loss, DPW provides a waiver benefit equal to the difference between the vehicle value at the time of purchase, less the loan balance at the time of loss up to a maximum waiver benefit of $10,000, or the outstanding loan balance.
Benefits of Protection
- Protection for collision
- Life-of-loan Protection
