Auto Loan Refinance
Lynn M.

You all rock! I just recently joined the credit union. My close friend told me how great you all are. WOW, was she right. I wish I wouldn't have waited so long to join.

Recently, I applied to refinance my car. I felt like this is the first time that someone from a financial institution took time to understand my situation and work with me to get my loan approved. 

Response time, knowledge and communication has been outstanding. I have bought a lot of vehicles/refinanced and I can't tell you how much I appreciate the way this business is ran.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an Auto Loan Refinance?

An auto refinance is the process of applying for a new auto loan to pay off your existing auto loan. If your credit score has improved or if interest rates have gone down since you first financed your car, refinancing your auto loan could lower your monthly payment and save you thousands of dollars over the life of your loan.

Can I apply for an Auto Loan if I have not found the car I want yet?

Yes! We recommend applying for a loan before you start shopping, so you know exactly how much you are approved for before heading to the dealership.

Do you have any car buying services available?

Yes! We have partnered with AutoSmart to allow members to search, shop and finance through Copper State Credit Union for a quicker, stress-free car buying experience.
