Loan Protection
When making large purchases, most people use financing as a cost effective way of making the expense more affordable. As a savvy consumer, purchasing decisions are made when you are in good health, you have a secure job, and the expense seems manageable. But statistics show that 1 in 3 Canadians will be disabled for 90 days or longer before the age of 65* and few people know that an affordable financial protection plan is available to cover their loan in the case of an unexpected critical event. Volkswagen Protection Plan (VWPP) Loan Protection takes the worry out of financing by allowing you to make a minimal investment today in order to have peace of mind tomorrow.
VWPP Loan Protection is a life, critical illness, and disability coverage program designed to protect your financial commitments from the impact of an unforeseen life event.
