Frequently Asked Questions
Auto loan refinancing is replacing your current car loan with a new one—usually to secure a lower interest rate, reduce your monthly payments, or adjust the loan term. When you refinance, your new lender pays off your existing loan, and your auto loan payments are now made to them instead.
The refinancing process typically takes a few days to a couple of weeks, depending on how quickly we receive the required documentation and how fast the application is processed.
It may still be possible to refinance with bad credit, but your options might be limited. If your credit score has improved since you took out your original loan, you're more likely to be offered better terms on your refinanced loan.
Yes. Refinancing involves a credit check, which may cause a small, temporary dip in your credit score; however, if refinancing leads to lower payments or better terms, it could improve your credit score over time by reducing your debt-to-income ratio.
Refinancing might be a good option for you if:
- Your credit score has improved since originally purchased your vehicle
- Interest rates have dropped
- You want to decrease your monthly payments or shorten the length of your loan
You’ll generally need:
- Proof of income (like pay stubs or tax returns)
- Vehicle information (VIN, make, model, mileage)
- Current loan details (balance, payoff amount, lender information)
- Proof of insurance
