What to Do If You're Turned Down for Honda Financing Deals

Customers Talking to Honda Dealer

Lenders look at several different factors before they consider extending Honda financing deals. With the many variables involved, sometimes they determine that a buyer isn’t a good fit. While this can be unsettling, you still have options at Lester Glenn Honda.

 

Determine the Issue

If you are denied financing, it’s crucial to determine the cause. It could be anything from your debt, credit score, income, or insufficient employment history. Once you figure out the problem, you can decide how to proceed.

 

Look for a More Affordable Vehicle

Most lenders look for buyers with a debt-to-income ratio under 36 percent. So, if a new car is making yours too high, consider finding a vehicle that doesn’t cost as much. We suggest you discuss the new car you are interested in with our financial experts so you aren’t applying for a loan just to get denied again.  

 

Make a Larger Down Payment

A larger down payment could also help your chances of getting approved. This reduces the amount you have to finance. Plus, it demonstrates your buying power to lenders, which can help them feel more confident about extending a loan offer.

 

Use a Cosigner

Typically, a cosigner is one of the easiest ways to improve your approval odds. A consigner’s financial info, such as their income and credit score, is considered when you apply for the loan because they have to agree to take over your loan if you cannot.
