On eligible loans, borrowers may request to skip up to two scheduled payments per calendar year for a fee of $30 per skipped payment. Interest will continue to accrue during the skipped period, which may increase the total amount paid over the life of the loan and extend the original loan term. If optional ancillary products (such as GAP or warranty coverage) were added to the loan, coverage may not extend beyond the original maturity date. Eligibility requirements apply. Not all loans qualify. Other restrictions may apply.
