Stop Loss - a fair go for financed cars

Unless you've paid cash for your car, we recommend you carry Stop Loss Insurance in addition to the Comprehensive policy.

Why? It's sad but true - as soon as you purchase a car, its value usually decreases. So if it gets written off, the insurance payout could be a whole lot less than what you've got left owing on the finance. This means you'll still be paying off a car that you can’t drive or no longer have. And that is a significant downer.

Stop Loss will pay the difference between the insurance payout and what is left owing on your car's finance to a maximum of $10,000. So for example, if you still owe $12,500 on your car, but it only has a market value of $6,500, the addition of this policy would see a payout of the market value of $6,500 under your Comprehensive Insurance policy, plus the $6,000 difference under the Stop Loss Insurance policy.
