Auto Financial Group Adds Two Credit Unions to Balloon Lending Program in Q2 2026
Auto Financial Group (AFG) announced the addition of two new credit unions—Sun Federal Credit Union and Wauna Federal Credit Union—to its Walk-Away Balloon Lending Program during Q2 2026. These institutions collectively hold $1.07 billion in assets, expanding AFG's consumer reach by over 2 million across two states. The program offers affordable vehicle financing with lower monthly payments and flexible end-of-term options for consumers while providing financial institutions higher loan yields. AFG CEO Richard Epley highlighted the growing demand for alternative auto financing solutions as affordability challenges persist in the new-vehicle market, citing data from Edmunds that shows many buyers are opting for extended payment terms or high monthly installments. Wauna Credit Union's CEO emphasized how their 'Drive & $ave' program aligns with AFG’s mission to support financial well-being by reducing budget strain on vehicle ownership.
