Personal Loan FAQs

What is an auto repair loan?

While car insurance usually covers the cost of collision-related damage, you're often on the hook for repairs from normal wear and tear. This is where an auto repair loan can come in handy. Auto repair loans are a type of personal loan that you use to pay for your vehicle's repair.

Why use a personal loan to pay for car repairs?

A personal loan through Upgrade is unsecured, which means it isn’t backed by property or other collateral. Personal loans through Upgrade have a fixed interest rate so you’ll know exactly what you’ll pay each month and when you’ll finish paying back your loan.

You’ll receive your funds in a lump sum. You can use your money to pay the car mechanic everything you owe for the repairs or spread out your payments over time. You have the option to pay off your loan early, at any time, with no prepayment fees.
