Gap insurance covers the difference between what you owe on a lease and the car's value if it's totaled. For leases, gap coverage is often *already included* in your lease agreement-check your paperwork first.

If it's not included, gap insurance is worth considering. If your leased Chevy is in a major accident, the insurance payout might not cover your remaining lease payments without it. It's affordable and gives peace of mind.

When reviewing your lease terms at Castle Chevrolet of Villa Park, ask whether gap insurance is built in and what it covers. **Call (630) 279-5200** to clarify before signing-our finance team can explain your protection clearly.
