Before signing

Put these numbers on separate lines.

01

Vehicle price

The price before financing, trade, cash down, warranties, and add-ons.

02

Approved rate

Ask what rate the lender approved before any dealer markup or participation.

03

Total of payments

Monthly payment multiplied across the full term, plus cash and end charges.

04

Optional add-ons

List warranties, protection products, service plans, insurance, and fees separately.

Ask this exactly

What rate did the lender approve before any markup?

Then ask for the rate, term, total of payments, and every add-on in writing.

Loan pricing, disclosure requirements, and dealer compensation vary by lender, contract, and location. Verify the actual documents. This page is education, not legal or financial advice.
