DUBUQUE, Iowa DuTrac Community Credit Union has introduced a smart phone application to assist members in buying a vehicle.
The AskAuto app, which is a CUNA Mutual Group product, allows shoppers to scan vehicle identification numbers to get average retail costs and EPA mileage estimates from a smart phone or mobile device. It also lets them make notes and rate vehicles.
DuTrac also can send messages about loan options and dealer partnerships that might interest shoppers.
Once a decision is made, shoppers can apply for a loan at any time using their mobile device.
In most states, shoppers can scan their driver’s license to prefill portions of the loan application. The AskAuto app also prefills vehicle information, ensuring accuracy, CUNA Mutual Group said.
