Message From Our Editor

What we love about USAA Auto Loans

USAA is a popular financial company that has a reputation for great customer service. That reputation holds true with its auto loans. Customers can expect an easy application and strong customer service throughout the borrowing process.

Loans are flexible, with terms as long as 84 months, and have highly competitive rates and fees so borrowers can feel confident that they’re getting a good deal.

Additionally, because USAA was founded by members of the military and is dedicated to serving the military, it’s also well-equipped for handling the unique circumstances servicemembers face.

One great perk of USAA’s auto loans is that if you buy from a USAA certified dealer and find a better deal on a car right after you make your purchase, USAA will refund the difference, acting as a form of purchase protection.

What could USAA Auto Loans do better?

The primary drawback of borrowing from USAA is that the company has strict eligibility requirements. The company focuses on serving members of the military and their families, so you won’t be able to get coverage unless you are an active, retired, or separated service member or a spouse, widow, widower, or former spouse of an eligible servicemember.

Other than this, there’s little to complain about.

USAA Auto Loans’s backstory

USAA was founded in 1922 by Army officers looking for car insurance. They decided to form their own insurance company instead. Over time, the officers added more servicemembers to the group and expanded their company to offer other services, such as banking and loans.

The Verdict

USAA offers strong auto loans and makes it easy for people to shop for a vehicle through its network of dealers. If you’re eligible to work with USAA, there’s little reason that it shouldn’t be one of the first lenders you check when shopping around.
