Credit unions are member-owned, so products are designed around members – not shareholders. If you’re looking for a credit union for refinancing auto loan debt, WECU offers competitive rates, straightforward terms, and personal support.
When you refinance, WECU will provide details about your new loan. After your refinance closes, WECU will pay off your previous lender in as few as 10 days. Keep making payments on your old loan until your previous lender confirms the payoff is complete. Not sure where to start? Book an appointment with us today.
Refinancing replaces your current car loan with a new one that may have a different interest rate, monthly payment, or loan term. Once approved and finalized, the new loan pays off your old loan. You then make payments on the new loan.
Refinancing may be worth a look if your credit has improved, lower rates are available, or your monthly payment no longer fits your budget.
Auto loan refinance rates at a credit union can depend on your credit history, loan term, amount financed, and the vehicle’s age and value. When comparing offers, consider the annual percentage rate (APR), monthly payment, fees, and total interest – not just the advertised rate.
Credit score requirements vary with factors such as your income, credit history, loan amount, and vehicle value. Stronger credit may help you qualify for a lower rate, but your score is only one part of the decision.
An older car may still qualify for refinancing. Your options can depend on its age, mileage, value, and how much you still owe. Talk with a Relationship Officer to find out whether your vehicle qualifies.
Yes, choosing a shorter loan term could help you pay off your car faster. A lower rate may also help if you keep paying the same amount each month, since more of your payment can go toward what you owe. A shorter term could raise your monthly payment, so compare the payment and total interest costs before deciding.
WECU terms depend on loan type, collateral, and applicant qualifications.2 Our Relationship Officers are happy to answer your questions.
