Frequently Asked Questions

Your credit score plays a big role in determining your loan's interest rate and terms. Borrowers with higher credit scores typically qualify for lower interest rates, while those with lower credit scores may face higher rates.
  • New auto loans apply to brand-new cars, trucks, vans, and vehicles five years old or newer. They often have lower interest rates because new cars typically have better collateral value.
  • Used auto loans apply to pre-owned vehicles older than five years; interest rates may be slightly higher since used cars have less value over time.
An auto loan is a type of financing that allows you to borrow money to purchase a vehicle. The loan is secured by the vehicle itself, meaning the lender can repossess the vehicle if you fail to repay the loan.
Missing a payment can result in late fees and negatively affect your credit score. Repeated missed payments may lead to vehicle repossession. It’s important to contact People Driven Credit Union as soon as possible if you anticipate any issues making payments on your loan from PDCU.
A down payment isn’t always required, but it’s generally a smart move. Putting money down reduces the amount you’ll need to borrow, which can lower your monthly payments and reduce the total interest paid over the life of the loan. At People Driven Credit Union, we offer 100% financing for new cars (5 years old or newer). For used cars (older than 5 years), we’ll finance up to 80% of the vehicle's value (LTV).
  • Auto loans: These are for purchasing a new or used vehicle.
  • Auto refinancing: You can replace your current auto loan with a new one, typically to get a lower interest rate or change the loan term.
Term lengths for auto loans from People Driven Credit Union range from 12 months (1 year) to 96 months (9 years). The longer the term, the lower your monthly payments, but you may pay more in interest over the life of the loan.
To apply for an auto loan with People Driven Credit Union, you will need:
  • A valid ID
  • Proof of income (like pay stubs or tax returns)
  • Employment information
  • Vehicle details (if you’ve already chosen one - the VIN #)
  • Proof of insurance
Yes, People Driven Credit Union offers pre-approval for auto loans. Pre-approval helps you understand how much you can afford and can give you leverage when negotiating with dealers.
People Driven Credit Union members can pay off an auto loan anytime with no penalty.
The amount you can borrow depends on several factors, including your credit score, income, debt-to-income ratio, and the age and value of the vehicle. People Driven Credit Union will typically fund a percentage of the vehicle’s value.

GAP also provides a $1000 credit towards the next vehicle you finance through PDCU and unlimited auto deductible claims for up to five years, up to $500 per claim for any vehicle you own and insure.
