Protect Your Vehicle
Extended Warranty
Vehicle repairs can become costly and quickly break your budget. Five Star offers three levels of Extended Warranty coverage that pick up where the dealer's or manufacturer's warranty leaves off, covering many major parts and common repairs. You can even go to your own mechanic.
Motor Club Membership
Keep your vehicle running smoothly and get help when you hit a bump in the road. Five Points members can purchase a CU Drive America membership, which features free roadside assistance - including jump starts, flat tire changes, lockout services, and fuel delivery if you run out of gas. As a CU Drive America member, you also receive vehicle maintenance benefits like free oil changes, discounts on brakes and more.
GAP Insurance (Guaranteed Asset Protection)
If your vehicle is damaged beyond repair or stolen, the insurance payout probably won't cover the entire loan balance. Insurers normally pay only the current market value of your vehicle, less the deductible. This could be thousands of dollars less than your loan balance. GAP coverage pays off the remainder of the loan so you don't have to - and it can be added at any time during the life of the loan.
Will You Need GAP?
- The average new car loses 60 percent of its value over three years of normal driving, according to Automotive News.
- The Insurance Information Institute estimates that one vehicle is stolen every 24 seconds in the United States.
- 18 percent of vehicles involved in a collision will result in a total loss, according to CCC Information Services.
- Insurance companies report that every year a half million vehicles are written off as a total loss due to accident, fire, or theft.
