Snap Loan® Financing for Car Repairs
California Autohaus offers auto repair financing through Snap Finance, so you can get your car fixed now and pay for the repair over time. At our shop, Snap financing is a Snap Loan® branded retail installment contract: an agreement originated by California Autohaus and serviced by Snap Finance.
It works like a payment plan for your car repair. The application takes minutes, Snap gives you a decision in seconds, and approval amounts range from $300 to $5,000. No credit history is required to apply.
What You Need to Apply
- Be of legal age to enter into a contract in your state
- Have a steady monthly income (Snap’s minimum is $750 or $1,000, depending on the product)
- Have an active checking account
- Provide a valid email address and smartphone number
Apply online with Snap Finance, or apply in our shop with help from our team when you bring your car in.
Not all applicants are approved. While no credit history is required, Snap obtains information from consumer reporting agencies in connection with submitted applications, and your score with those agencies may be affected. Snap Loan® branded products are not available in all states.
How Auto Repair Financing Works

Get a Written Estimate
We inspect your car and give you a written estimate before any work begins, so you know the amount you need to finance.

Drive Now, Pay Over Time

Big repair bills rarely arrive at a convenient time. Auto repair financing lets you take care of the work your car needs now instead of putting it off, whether that is a single repair or scheduled maintenance:
- Brake repair
- AC repair
- Check engine light diagnostics and the repairs that follow
- Suspension repair
- Factory scheduled maintenance
- Tire service and wheel alignment
