Can I include my car loan into a debt consolidation program? If so can I keep my car

If I include my car loan in a debt consolidation program, will I be able to keep my car?

No, you can not consolidate an auto loan into a debt consolidation program. Debt consolidation programs are tailored for unsecured debt, such as credit cards and personal loans. Your auto loan is secured by your vehicle. However, if your auto has been repossessed, sold in an auctioned, and you receive a deficiency balance then you may be able to enroll that debt into a debt settlement program.

I hope this information helps you Find, Save, and Learn.

Best,

Dealing with debt

If you are struggling with debt, you are not alone. According to the NY Federal Reserve total household debt as of Quarter Q1 2024 was $17.69 trillion. Student loan debt was $1.60 trillion and credit card debt was $1.12 trillion.

A significant percentage of people in the US are struggling with monthly payments and about 26% of households in the United States have debt in collections. According to data gathered by Urban.org from a sample of credit reports, the median debt in collections is $1,739. Credit card debt is prevalent and 3% have delinquent or derogatory card debt. The median debt in collections is $422.

Collection and delinquency rates vary by state. For example, in South Dakota, 18% have student loan debt. Of those holding student loan debt, 5% are in default. Auto/retail loan delinquency rate is 2%.

While many households can comfortably pay off their debt, it is clear that many people are struggling with debt. Make sure that you analyze your situation and find the best debt payoff solutions to match your situation.
