No Credit? No Problem With RightWay

Bad credit isn’t the only issue that can throw a wrench in the car-buying process. Having no credit can also be a challenge.

Whether you’ve never used credit or it’s just been a while, your lack of a credit score leads some lenders to view you as just as risky as someone with bad credit.

Start the pre-approval process today by filling out an online credit application. Our finance department will get right on finding a lender with the best interest rate and loan terms.

You can also schedule an appointment online to handle all this in person at our dealership.

Is RightWay a South Bend Buy-Here-Pay-Here Dealership?

Because we can get just about any credit situation financed, some South Bend car buyers believe RightWay Auto Sales is a buy-here-pay-here car lot. That’s not the case. We’re a traditional used-car dealership with relationships with 30+ lenders that specialize in bad credit car loans.

Buy-here-pay-here dealers are not what we want to be associated with, as they don’t have great reputations. First, they rarely put any focus on quality. Instead, they will sell nearly any vehicle, regardless of its mechanical issues. Plus, they generally offer only the bare minimum warranty, so if the vehicle breaks down, you’re stuck with the repair cost.

Second, buy-here-pay-here dealers control the entire car-buying process. They control it all, from the vehicles you qualify for to the loan terms to the interest rate. This means you could get a vehicle that doesn’t suit your needs with a high payment and interest rate just because you thought it was your only option.

Finally, buy-here-pay-here dealers are often not set up to report your on-time car payments to the three major credit bureaus. This means all your work paying off that car will do nothing to help you build credit for your next new car.

RightWay Auto Sales does things differently.

How RightWay Auto Sales Does Things Differently

RightWay Auto Sales of South Bend at 50537 IN-933, South Bend, IN 46637 has financing options for all credit situations, but we do car sales differently than buy-here-pay-here dealers.

First, we offer only high-quality, late model pre-owned vehicles that have been through a 70-point safety inspection process. We also back them with a six-month or 6,000-mile limited warranty.

Second, you are in control. We simply get you approved by our over 30 bad credit auto lenders, then you choose the loan terms you prefer and the vehicle that fits those terms. And since we deal only with third-party lenders, you can rest assured you’re getting a competitive interest rate.

Finally, all our third-party lenders report all on-time car payments to the credit bureaus. This means those on-time payments can help improve your credit score for the next time you buy a new car.

Fill out an online credit application today to start the pre-approval process, then check out our online inventory to choose a few vehicles to test drive. You can also schedule an appointment online to stop by the dealership and see in person how our lower payments, newer vehicles, easy approvals, and more lenders make a difference.
