Financing Emergency Car Repairs
When your car breaks down unexpectedly and you don't have savings to cover repairs, bad credit can make the situation even more stressful. However, you have several options for financing emergency repairs.
Loan Options for Bad Credit
Personal Loans
Some lenders offer personal loans to borrowers with bad credit, though interest rates will be higher. Look for lenders specializing in bad credit loans.
Credit Cards
If you have any available credit, using a credit card may be your fastest option. Some cards offer 0% APR promotional periods.
Buy Now, Pay Later Services
Services like Affirm or Klarna sometimes partner with repair shops to offer payment plans with minimal credit checks.
Alternatives to Loans
Payment Plans with the Mechanic
Some repair shops offer in-house financing or payment plans, especially for larger repairs.
Community Assistance Programs
Non-profits and community organizations sometimes offer grants or low-interest loans for essential car repairs.
