Insurance and Total Loss
We're here to help you through the process!
We have your back!
When you purchase a new car, it immediately loses value as soon as you drive it off the lot. If your vehicle is totaled or stolen, your insurance company will only pay for the current market value of your car, which may be less than what you owe on your loan. Blue is your partner, so we are here to help you navigate any challenges you may face.
What To Do If There Has Been An Accident
Step 1
Contact your insurance provider- confirm they have Blue FCU listed as lien holder.
- Ask that they contact us for a Letter of Guarantee and to confirm the claim status.
- Our Total Loss Experts can be reached at 307-432-5413 or [email protected].
- Please continue to make your payments during this time to avoid delinquencies and additional fees.
Step 2
If you purchased an extended warranty or service contract, our Total Loss Experts can cancel that on your behalf.
- This process can take up to 6 weeks.
- We will request the cancellation as soon as all the necessary documents are received from your insurance provider.
- Please continue to make your payments during this time to avoid delinquencies and additional fees.
- Please keep lines of communication open during this process; dealerships may need additional documentation from you to finalize the refund.
- You will receive an emailed receipt when the warranty refund is applied to your loan balance or deposited to your savings account.
Step 3
If you purchased GAP and there is a remaining balance after the insurance settlement and warranty refunds have been applied, our Total Loss Experts will file the GAP claim on your behalf.
- This process can take an additional 6 weeks.
- We can initiate the GAP claim early in the process; however, the GAP claim decision will be finalized by your GAP provider when all documents and refunds have been received and applied to your account.
- Please keep lines of communication open during this process; GAP companies may need additional documentation from you to finalize the claim.
- You will receive an emailed receipt when the funds from the GAP claim are applied to your loan or deposited to your savings account.
Step 4
You are responsible for making payments throughout the Total Loss process, in addition to any remaining balance, once all funds have been received from the insurance settlement, warranty refund, and GAP claim. We will notify you in writing if there is a remaining balance after these funds have been applied. Call us to discuss options.
