- Economic Downturns: During periods of economic recession or downturn, many individuals face job losses, reduced income, or financial instability. This can make it difficult for them to keep up with their car payments, leading to delinquencies.
- Rising Cost of Living: The increasing cost of living, including expenses such as housing, healthcare, and education, can put pressure on household budgets. As a result, some people may prioritize other essential expenses over car payments, leading to delinquencies.
- Subprime Lending: The practice of extending loans to borrowers with poor credit histories, known as subprime lending, has become more prevalent in the auto industry. While this allows individuals with low credit scores to purchase cars, it also increases the risk of default and delinquency on car loans.
- Extended Loan Terms: To make car ownership more affordable, lenders have extended loan terms, sometimes up to 84 months or longer. While this lowers monthly payments, it also means borrowers remain in debt for longer periods, increasing the likelihood of delinquencies, especially if their financial situation deteriorates.
- Decrease in Vehicle Resale Value: Cars depreciate over time, and some models depreciate faster than others. If a borrower owes more on their car loan than the vehicle is worth (known as being "underwater" or "upside down" on the loan), they may be more inclined to default on payments, leading to delinquencies.
- Unemployment and Underemployment: High unemployment rates or underemployment can significantly impact individuals' ability to make timely car payments. Without a stable source of income, borrowers may struggle to meet their financial obligations, including car loan payments.
- Lack of Emergency Savings: Many individuals lack sufficient emergency savings to cover unexpected expenses, such as car repairs or medical bills. In the absence of savings, they may resort to missing or delaying car payments, resulting in delinquencies.
