10 Common Mistakes Car Buyers Make

Buying a new vehicle is exciting, but it’s easy to overpay if the excitement clouds your judgment. Here are ten common mistakes car buyers make and tips to help avoid them.

Why Get Financing BEFORE You Buy a Vehicle

If you want your dealership experience to be as smooth as possible, get your financing first. Here’s why.

FAQs: You asked. We answered.

Auto Loans

How do I receive my title or a lien release for my vehicle?
There are a number of different ways in which you can receive a title or lien release, depending on whether your loan is active or paid off, and whether you live in a state that processes paper or electronic titles. For more details, please review our Title and Lien Release FAQs.
Do I have to be preapproved for my loan before I start car shopping?
No, it’s not a requirement. But being preapproved helps you negotiate the best price for your car because you won’t end up with a high rate when you close the deal. Car dealerships take preapproved customers more seriously because it means you’re ready to do business. Here are more reasons we recommend getting pre-approved before you go to the dealership.
Can I pay off my loan quicker than the payment schedule?
Of course! There’s no prepayment penalty for paying off your loan early. Doing so will actually help you save on interest over the long run.
Can I finance a boat, motorcycle, or recreational vehicle with Connexus?
Absolutely. The rates on this page apply to motorcycles. Loans for boats and other recreational vehicles can be found on our Recreational Loans page.
What is GAP insurance and who pays for it?
GAP insurance is an insurance policy taken out at the time of an auto loan to cover the difference between what your insurance company will pay on the auto loan, if the auto is totaled, and the remaining payoff balance. The cost of the policy can be included in your loan or paid by cash.
