MMPI is available for new and used vehicles. Add-on miles available—up to 105,000 miles on top of current odometer.

What does MMPI cover?

MMPI can cover the costs of many major repairs, such as engine, transmission, drive axle, fuel system, and electrical, just to name a few.

MMPI can also help with 24-hour roadside assistance, rental-vehicle assistance, key-fob replacement, a tire-protection plan, and trip-interruption coverage.

Deductibles per visit are $0 (surcharge applies) or $100 (standard), and three different plans are offered: Select, Deluxe and Ultimate.

View more details in our Major Mechanical Protection PDF brochure.


Exclusions and deductibles may apply. Some vehicles are ineligible for MMPI—such as RVs, Subaru WRX, all Porsche and Tesla models, and others. View a list of ineligible vehicles here.

Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) with PowerBuy covers the difference between your loan balance and the amount your insurance policy would pay out if your vehicle were to be damaged beyond repair ("totaled") or stolen and never recovered. Your insurance policy will pay you the cash value of the vehicle, while GAP coverage is paid when the loan balance is higher than the vehicle's actual cash value paid by your insurer.

In addition, with PowerBuy, you may be eligible for up to $6000 toward the financing of a replacement vehicle (autos and motorcycles) if the vehicle is financed through the Credit Union within 90 days of settlement. See our GAP PowerBuy PDF brochure.

For boats and recreational vehicles, the benefit is up to $1000 toward the financing of a replacement vessel/vehicle if the vehicle is financed through the credit union within 90 days of settlement.

Protection Benefits

  • Protects your credit rating
  • Eliminates or reduces out-of-pocket expenses for the remaining loan balance after a loss settlement
  • You may purchase a replacement vehicle sooner because there is little or no carry-over balance
  • Maximum benefit:
    • Motorcycles: $50,000
    • Automobiles: $100,000
    • RVs and boats: $125,000
  • May be purchased up to one year from effective date of loan

Exclusions and deductibles may apply.

Protect your loan with Credit Life and Disability Insurance—available for vehicle loans, personal loans and lines, and share-secured loans.

Even if you have life insurance, other unfortunate circumstances could impact your monthly income. Having the peace of mind that your loan payment will be made, should you become disabled due to injury or illness, is worth the minimal cost added to your loan payment.
