3 Myths of Refinancing Your Car Loan

If you’re thinking about refinancing your car loan, but you’re unsure, we might be able to clear up some of the common myths. The point of refinancing is often to lower your rate and monthly payment in order to save more money in the long term. It’s definitely possible. Here are some of the common myths you don’t have to worry about.

Myth 1: Refinancing won’t save me much money.

This is totally dependent on your current loan details and the new rate after you refinance. While refinancing doesn’t always save you much money, in the right circumstances, it could save you a lot. Here’s an example of how much you could save on a $15,000 auto loan for 60 months‍¹.
