Why did I receive a notice about providing proof of insurance?
Your loan agreement with Gerber Federal Credit Union requires you to maintain full coverage insurance on the collateral pledged for the amount and the term of the loan. Collateral could be your vehicle, marine, house or recreational vehicle.
We require that you provide us evidence that you have obtained acceptable insurance coverage as outlined in the loan agreement. If you have received a notice or phone call concerning the insurance coverage on the collateral pledged with Gerber Federal Credit Union, our records indicate that we need an update of this evidence.
