Draft Pre-approved Auto Loan
Auto Draft is a pre-approved auto loan that gives you the bargaining power of cash and ensures you can negotiate the best price on the vehicle you’ve selected. Once you’re approved, and after you’ve negotiated the best price on your car, just sign over your Auto Draft. It’s like writing out one of your own checks!

Additional benefits:

  • 1% Cash Rebate on the amount of your Auto Draft Loan. (for example: use an Auto Draft for $20,000, and you'll get $200!)*
  • Use it at any licensed car dealer.
  • Get approved today...use the check when you’re ready to make a vehicle purchase. 
  • There’s no need to come to the credit union to sign additional papers.
  • Your rate will be CVCU's current auto loan rate at the time you make your vehicle purchase.
  • Interest accrues after you’ve signed the check over to the dealer.
  • Auto Draft minimum is $5000.

*The cash rebate check will be sent to the borrower after the loan has been active for 90 days. Auto Draft requires borrowers to meet CVCUs usual underwriting standards. Minimum loan is $5,000. Rebate offer available until further notice.

First Time Car Buyers Program

  • Finance a new or used vehicle up to 100% of its value.*
  • If you have no credit score due to lack of previous credit...no problem! We'll treat you fairly and you could even get our best rates.**

*The actual amount approved will depend on whether income is sufficient to cover the payment plus normal expenses.
**Individuals who have not yet established a credit score, due to not previously using credit, will be given the benefit of using our Tier 1 rates. Offer available to those who have never financed a vehicle before and have a minimum of 6 months with current employer. Those with derogatory credit may pay higher rates, or may not be eligible for financing. All first time car buyers are required to have a co-signer on their loan. Only eligible borrowers who meet CVCU membership and credit requirements may qualify.

Refinancing Your Current Vehicle Loan
Already have a loan? We may still be able to help you. If our rate is lower than what you’re currently paying, you may be paying too much. Call our loan department to see how we can help.

The Truth about 0% Financing

Pay Off Your Loan Sooner with Weekly or Bi-Weekly Payments
Breaking your monthly payment into weekly or bi-weekly payments allows you to pay your loan off earlier; and reduces the amount of interest paid because you end up making extra payments throughout the term of the loan. See in this example that the loan in paid off 6 months sooner and the member saves $325 in interest.
