Something unexpected happens.

You get sick, have an accident, become unemployed or experience another life-changing event and can no longer make your loan or lease payments on your car.
You return your car without penalty.
Depending on your coverage^†, you can:
1. Return your car without penalty or damaging your credit rating.
2. Keep your car while WALKAWAY covers your payments.
_{^†Coverage ranges from $7,500 to $25,000.}

Why you need it.

Unless you have a substantial down payment or equivalent valued trade-in, your car loan or lease is always greater than the value of your vehicle throughout most of your term. This can leave you vulnerable should you hit an unexpected rough patch and no longer be able to make your payments.

WALKAWAY covers the difference between your car’s value and what you owe the financial institution – up to $25,000. It lets you ‘walk away’ without any impact to your savings or credit rating.

What you get with WALKAWAY.
