A simple Answer TO yOUr Question

Is contract hire GAP insurance required for leased cars?

While it is not a legal requirement like liability insurance, many lenders and leasing companies strongly recommend it. Some leasing contracts include a form of GAP built in (often called a "waiver"), but these are becoming rarer. It is your financial liability on the line, so checking your contract for a GAP clause is a vital piece of risk management.

After 30 years of car buying this has been the best experience I’ve had. Sean has been helpful, resourceful and easy to work with. I’ll never go back to the archaic dealership process again.

Deborah was a huge help when it came time to trade my car in for a new lease. I didn't know exactly where to start, but I gave her a few of my "must-haves," and she came back with amazing options. Working with Vantage Auto made the entire leasing process seamless and efficient. Once I made my decision, everything was completed within just a few days. They even delivered the car directly to me! All I had to do was sign the paperwork, and I was ready to enjoy my new car. Deborah was communicative, knowledgeable, and an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish.
