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.

Auto Draft Pre-Approved Auto Loan
CVCU offers a special pre-approved auto loan program that can save you time and money at the dealership. Call, come in, or apply online for a pre-approved Auto Draft before negotiating price with the dealer. You'll get a "blank check" that can be used to purchase any vehicle, from any dealership, for any amount up to your pre-approved limit. You’ll have the buying power of cash....and, you won’t be tempted to spend more than you can afford. click here for more info

CHECK OUR RATES

Refinancing
Already have a loan? We may still be able to help you. CHECK OUR RATES – 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
Learn how a Credit Union auto loan may be a better than the 0% financing offered by car manufacturers. There's also a special calculator to compare monthly payments with a dealer financing plan to the payments you'd make by taking the rebate and financing with CVCU. The results may surprise you! click here for more info

CoVantage Cash
An open-end agreement that allows you to apply for any type of consumer loan or auto loan today, and borrow later when the need arises…without another trip to the Credit Union.

  1. Stop in any time to get pre-approved for a loan. You’ll complete an application, and upon approval, will be asked to sign an open-end agreement. (No interest is charged until you use the loan.)
  2. When you’re ready to use the loan, call a loan officer and tell them the amount you need. They’ll ask a few simple questions and we’ll send you a check or deposit the money into your account.
  3. We’ll mail you a receipt for the money dispersed showing the terms and rate of your loan.

PROTECTION INSURANCE FOR YOUR LOAN AND VEHICLE

Credit Life and Disability
Credit Life and Disability Insurance are available on most loans. This insurance is optional, however, we strongly urge you to protect yourself from the inability to repay a loan due to accident, illness or death. For a nominal cost, credit disability would make your monthly payments for you should you be out of work for 14 days or more due to an illness or injury. Credit life insurance can  pay off your loan if you were to lose your life.  Click here for more info

GAP Insurance
Protects members against financial loss in the event your vehicle is declared a total loss due to theft, collision, fire, or any insured peril. GAP Protection covers the difference between your primary insurance carrier settlement and the payoff of your loan on the date of the loss. Click here for more info
