N.D. Cent. Code § 26.1-57-06

Current through 2023 Legislative Sessions
Section 26.1-57-06 - Cancellation
1. A guaranteed asset protection waiver agreement is cancellable. A guaranteed asset protection waiver must provide if a borrower cancels a waiver within the free-look period, the borrower is entitled to a full refund of the purchase price, if benefits have not been provided. If a borrower cancels the waiver after the free-look period and no benefits have been provided, the creditor, administrator, or other authorized party shall provide the borrower a refund of the purchase price, calculated in a manner at least as favorable as using the sum-of-the-digits method, less any cancellation fee no greater than fifty dollars.
2. To receive a refund, the borrower, in accordance with any applicable terms of the waiver, shall provide a written request to cancel to the creditor, administrator, or other party. If the request to cancel is a result of the early termination of the finance agreement the borrower shall provide the written request to cancel within ninety days of the occurrence of the event terminating the finance agreement.
3. If the cancellation of a guaranteed asset protection waiver occurs as a result of a default under the finance agreement or the repossession of the motor vehicle associated with the finance agreement, or any other termination of the finance agreement, any refund due may be paid directly to the creditor or administrator and applied as set forth in subsection 4.
4. Any cancellation refund under subsection 1, 2, or 3 may be applied by the creditor as a reduction of the amount owed under the finance agreement, unless the borrower can show that the finance agreement has been paid in full.
