If you need to find cheap refinance for a car loan that is “upside down” then it’s because your car isn’t worth as much as the amount you owe to the lender.  So it might be that you have a $10,000 car loan but the car is only worth $6,000 meaning you are effectively out of pocket by $4,000.  The problem with cars in general is that as soon as you drive out of the showroom the value of the car takes a knock.  The problem is made worse if you have bought a brand new car because most of the depreciation occurs in the first 3 years.  So it’s no wonder that so many individuals find themselves with an upside down car loan.  The Power Information Network says that roughly 38% of people who trade in an old auto so as to buy a new one find they owe more than what their car is worth.
