Ok I just purchased a car from my local honda dealership. I walked into the dealership on 6/9. I finally took delivery of the car on 6/21. I guess the dealership was doing a little shopping around so I expected a few extra pulls.

As of today there has been 5 extra hard pulls on TU and EQ. American Honda has pulled 3 different times, And now i see new pulls from Cap1 and a few other no name finance companies.

Is this an indication that my loan isnt actually done? Will the dealership call me next week asking for the car back? I've got a bad feeling.

One would think that from 06-09 thru 06-21 one would have had enough time to secure the approval.

Exactly. Im going by the dealership today to see whats going on. My score dropped 8 points because of all the hard pulls.

have you considered a CUDL?

Does that mean a credit union loan? If so no. I havent been with my CU long.

it is a special type of CU loan. when we went the CUDL route it resulted in only one inq, from the CU. Often, a CUDL can be arranged with a CU that you are not a member of.

Ok. I just went to another honda dealership and they informed me that there is no new loan in my name in Honda's system. I also noticed that the original dealership sent my info to Cap1 and WF.

Im gonna get a call next week asking for more of a downpayment or return the car. . Im pissed right now.

Credit Union Direct Lending.

I had a car for two months while they tried to get me financing. I kept trying to figure out what was going on. They pulled my CR over 30 times!! All hard pulls!!

One day I had enough, I went back and gave the truck back and made them give me my downpayment back. Two months I had that thing. I dont understand why companies do that - give you a car without financing...
