You have two options to set up monthly payments. You can set up automatic monthly payments online by logging in to cadillacfinancial.com/MyAccount or use the Cadillac Financial mobile app. 

Once you sign up, automatic payments go into effect immediately, but may take up to two business days to post to your account. Recurring payments can be changed or canceled any time through MyAccount.

Simple interest is a method of interest accrual that occurs with auto loans. Review your Cadillac Financial retail installment contract regarding the interest that accrues daily on the principal balance of your Cadillac.

Each payment you make will first pay down any accrued interest by multiplying the daily interest rate by the principal, by the number of days occur between payments. As you make required installment payments each month, payments will be applied first to any interest that has accrued on the unpaid principal balance, and then to the principal amount due for the month, and finally, for other fees, as applicable.

If you need more information on understanding your simple interest loan, contact Cadillac Financial today and let us know how we can assist. You can also download the Simple Interest Fact Sheet.

Payments are first applied to accrued interest. Then we apply the rest toward your principal or any outstanding charges/fees based on the status of your account.

Any amount paid over your current amount due will be applied to future payments. If all applicable interest, fees and late charges have been paid, the remaining funds will be applied to your principal balance. Each payment, regardless of the amount, is automatically applied this way.

Any amount paid over your current balance due will be applied to future payments. If all applicable interest, fees and late charges have been paid, the remaining funds will be applied to your principal balance. Each payment, regardless of the amount, is automatically applied this way.

You can view a payment breakdown in the Transaction Details section of your monthly billing statement.

Currently, we do not offer a self-service option to make a principal-only payment, but we are working on adding that to MyAccount. Any amount paid over your current amount due will be applied to future payments. If all applicable interest, fees and late charges have been paid, the remaining funds will be applied to your principal balance. Each payment, regardless of the amount, is automatically applied this way. To check on your payment, chat with us in MyAccount or call the Concierge team.

Lease

Visit the lease-end section to learn about your options.

The Cadillac dealership where you leased your Cadillac can also help with lease-end questions. They can explain/review the process to return your vehicle, the inspection required, excess mileage, and more.

For more information, send us a message by visiting MyAccount. You can also contact our Concierge team with questions.

You are responsible for any applicable tolls, tickets, property taxes, or fees assessed during your lease contract. The initial bill will go to Cadillac Financial. Then, charges will be added to your monthly billing statement with a copy of the original bill. If you don’t receive a monthly billing statement, you’ll receive an off-cycle bill for the applicable fees.

Cadillac Financial has a lease assumption program that helps facilitate lease transfers. Lease assumptions must meet the following requirements:

  • Vehicle must be registered/titled in the same state as the Assuming Lessee(s).
    • Note: Assuming Lessee(s) must have a driver's license issued in the same state where the vehicle is registered. Permits or state IDs are not accepted.
  • For new leases, lien must be perfected.
  • Lease must be 6 months or more from maturity.
  • Assuming lessee must meet all of GM Financial’s underwriting and credit guidelines.
  • The account is current on payments and must remain current through the lease-assumption process.
  • If a lease is contracted under multiple parties, the lease can be assumed by new lessees as long as all parties agree and sign third-party authorization forms as well as the new contract.

For more information, send us a message by visiting MyAccount. You can also contact our Concierge team with questions.

The standards for vehicle wear are listed in your lease agreement. Examples of excess wear include, but are not limited to, missing or broken parts, dented or damaged body panels, or cracked or broken glass. A lease-end guide will be mailed to you with helpful information regarding excess wear.

If you believe you have excess wear on your Cadillac, you can schedule a complimentary pre-return inspection with AutoVIN, our third-party service. This optional service can identify the areas that need extra attention before returning your Cadillac. All you need is your VIN and Cadillac Financial account number to schedule an appointment. For your convenience, the inspection has a four-hour window and can be completed at your home, office or preferred Cadillac dealership.

If you buy or lease a new Cadillac or GM vehicle when turning in your Cadillac lease, you may be eligible to receive a partial waiver on excess wear charges.

To determine eligibility, contact us through Cadillac Financial MyAccount or call our Concierge team.

If you have excess wear charges and you’re a My Cadillac Rewards member, you can use those points toward eligible charges like excess wear or mileage. Login to MyAccount and click “Pay with Points”.

Schedule a lease-end inspection at home, work or the dealership. Schedule this inspection online or contact our Concierge team

A disposition fee is a flat-rate fee that is charged to Cadillac Financial lessees after a Cadillac is returned. The disposition fee covers the cost of preparing the vehicle for resale at auction and is outlined in the lease agreement.

Cadillac will waive the disposition fee if you stay in the Cadillac/GM family by financing or leasing another new Cadillac or GM vehicle at the end of your lease, or if you choose to purchase your current lease.

Check your contract’s purchase option for details about purchasing your Cadillac.

Customers located in Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Hawaii, Kansas, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Dakota and Vermont can’t purchase Cadillacs directly from Cadillac Financial or GM Financial. Residents of these states will need to visit a Cadillac dealership to purchase their Cadillac lease.

If your Cadillac has a recall, bring it to a Cadillac dealership to fix the recall at no charge.

If you turn your Cadillac in early due to a recall, your lease will be processed as an early termination, and your lease-end liability invoice will be calculated per your lease agreement.

Make sure to clear all personal data, including garage door codes, saved phone numbers and addresses, app data, etc. Also, sign out of any accounts that you might have linked with your Cadillac. For complete instructions on how to find and remove personal data, please see your Owner’s Manual.

You can also download our return checklist to ensure you have everything you need for turn-in.

Bankruptcy

If you file a petition for bankruptcy, federal law prohibits Cadillac Financial from attempting to collect on an account that existed at the time of filing, absent permission from bankruptcy court. Cadillac Financial will place your account in bankruptcy status. We are not permitted to send billing statements to customers involved in an active bankruptcy case. Automatic or recurring payments on the account will also stop.

If you have filed for bankruptcy and want to surrender your vehicle, please call for retail accounts 877-203-5538 and for lease accounts 855-719-9692. Please have your account number and bankruptcy case number available.

A Reaffirmation Agreement is an agreement between a creditor and debtor(s) who have filed bankruptcy stating that the debtor(s) will honor the terms of the initial contract established with the creditor.

You are not required to sign a Reaffirmation Agreement. If you do sign a Reaffirmation Agreement with GM Financial, you’ll resume receiving monthly statements on your account once your case has been discharged. You’ll also be able to access your account via Cadillac Financial, make payments and be eligible for deferments on your account once your case has been discharged.

Not all services are available to customers who have been discharged in a bankruptcy case but have not reaffirmed their debt with GM Financial. If you wish to reaffirm your debt with GM Financial, a Reaffirmation Agreement must be signed – by you, your attorney and GM Financial – and filed in a timely manner with the bankruptcy court. If you are not represented by bankruptcy counsel, the bankruptcy court must approve the Reaffirmation Agreement before it is a valid, binding agreement. It is your responsibility to obtain this approval.

Cadillac Financial urges you to discuss your obligations as a debtor in bankruptcy with your bankruptcy attorney. Account terms are not modified in a Reaffirmation Agreement with Cadillac Financial.

If a discharge order is entered in a Chapter 12 or 13 bankruptcy case, Cadillac Financial is prohibited from making collection efforts on any debt that was discharged. Depending on the GM Financial arrangements made under the plan of reorganization approved by the bankruptcy court, GM Financial may be required to release its security interest upon the entry of the discharge. Or, security interest in the collateral on the account remains and GM Financial will retain its state law and contractual rights to protect such interest. Please discuss these alternatives with your bankruptcy attorney.

Customers in bankruptcy will not receive monthly statements. You do have the option to pay online by logging in to MyAccount or the Cadillac Financial mobile app for Android and iOS. You also have the option to pay by phone, pay with cash, or mail in a check or money order. If your account is in repossession status, you will not be able to make payments online.

Cadillac Financial is not attempting to collect a debt by allowing access to these options.

Payoff

Any extra payments on an account is automatically refunded within 60 days following date of payoff. To verify an overage on a paid-off account, please log in to MyAccount, or call our Concierge team.

Your account balance may differ from your payoff balance due to interest charges, fees and other items that may be credited or debited to your account.

Lease customers may have an outstanding balance for all contractual obligations, such as late fees, excessive mileage or excessive wear.

Payoff details can be found after logging in to MyAccount or the Cadillac Financial mobile app for Android and iOS. You can also contact our Concierge team.

Any overages or extra payments on an account should be refunded within 30 days.

Depending on your state, your title or lien release documents typically arrive within 30 days of paying your account in full (or earlier, as required by state law).

To release titles on lease accounts, we require filled out and signed Lease Purchase Documents, including the odometer statement and damage disclosure acknowledgment (depending on state law). These can be found in the Cadillac Financial Document Center, along with instructions for returning the paperwork.

Both a co-buyer and a guarantor sign a contract to confirm they will assume financial responsibility if you are unable to pay. However, a co-buyer’s name will be listed on the contract and the title, while a guarantor’s will not. Debt will also be recorded on the co-buyer’s personal credit, but not on the guarantor’s.

Yes, you are responsible for any applicable tolls, tickets, property tax or fees assessed during your lease agreement. The initial bill will be sent to us. Setting up a toll tag (an electronic payment method that automatically pays for tolls as you drive through them, such as E-ZPass) is an easy way to avoid additional issues or late fees.

For property taxes, we will add the charge to your monthly billing statement and mail you a letter to notify you of this charge. Property tax bills can still be received up to 18 months after your lease has ended.

For tolls and tickets, we will email and/or mail you a letter about how to pay the tolling authority directly, as we do not collect amounts owed to these authorities. You will only see charges on your account if you do not pay the billing authorities by the stated due date.

We are required to report accurate information to the credit bureaus. If you believe we have reported inaccurately, you may dispute your information directly with them or by writing to us at:

Cadillac Financial
Attn: Customer Experience Support

  • The specific information being disputed such as consumer information, month(s) disputed, account status, balances or payoff status.
  • All supporting documentation such as a bank statement, copy of a cleared check or credit report showing a GM Financial tradeline.

We are not able to honor requests for goodwill credit adjustments (the removal of valid reporting history from a credit report).

Your privacy is important to us, and we understand that you expect us to safeguard your personal financial information in a secure manner. For more information, review the privacy policy for lease customers.

Simple interest is an interest accrual method. Interest accrues on a daily basis on the unpaid principal balance on the account. Each payment you make will first pay down any accrued interest, then the rest will apply to the principal or other applicable fees. You can calculate simple interest by multiplying the daily interest rate by the principal by the number of days that elapse between payments. Learn more about simple interest.

A Form 1099-C is sent to a customer when a debt of $600 or more is canceled.

The IRS may consider the debt or portions of the forgiven debt as income leading to a one-time tax charge. A tax adviser or the IRS can assist you on what to do with the form.

Fill out an online application to apply for prequalification. Prequalification determines if you’re likely to qualify for financing. It’s the first step in the process for credit approval.

After prequalification, you can submit a credit application through a Cadillac dealership. If you choose not to prequalify, you can still submit an application through a Cadillac dealer.

If you're not prequalified, follow up with the Cadillac dealer selected in your application for assistance with your Cadillac shopping and financing needs.

The balloon payment option can be selected when purchasing certain EVs and allows customers to make smaller monthly payments over the life of the contract and then pay a large lump sum at the end. Please note that state exceptions may apply.

Generally, there are three things you can do at the end of your contract if it includes the balloon option. Please reference your contract addendum, as some state exceptions may apply:

  • Purchase the vehicle: Requires you to make the balloon payment and pay any remaining balance on your account, which will pay off the vehicle.
  • Refinance the vehicle: Allows you to refinance the remaining balloon amount.
  • Sell the vehicle back to Cadillac Financial: Does not require payment of the balloon amount. However, you must notify us 30 days in advance if you choose this option.

If your contract includes a balloon payment option and you choose to purchase your vehicle or refinance the amount of the balloon payment, you will need to pay your balance. If you choose to sell the vehicle back to us on the scheduled due date of the balloon payment, you will need to pay any part of the contract balance that remains unpaid after we subtract the option sales price. Please refer to your contract addendum to confirm the option sales price.

Statements

Although terms vary between contracts, your first payment will generally be due 30 days from the date your contract is executed, and you will receive a billing statement approximately 14 days before your payment is due.

Title and Registration

Only individuals who are on the contract can be added to the title. For further assistance, contact our Concierge team.

Visit your state’s driver licensing and vehicle registration office to reregister your Cadillac. Since each state has its own vehicle registration procedures, we recommend that you contact your state’s driver licensing and vehicle registration office in advance.

Please note that Arizona, New York and West Virginia require permission from the lienholder to reregister. If you require permission, contact our Concierge team.

If you have completed your contract agreement and paid off your vehicle, you can submit a request for your title and/or Lien Release by going to getmycartitle.com and following the steps. Fees may apply. For step-by-step directions, download our Where's My Title fact sheet.

Depending on your state, title and/or lien release documents typically arrive within 30 days of paying your account in full (or earlier, as required by state law).

Ask your insurance company when they will send the check to Cadillac Financial. Once Cadillac Financial receives the insurance check, it can take three to five business days to process.

Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) may help pay off your vehicle financing if your vehicle is totaled and your insurance pays less than what you owe.

Insurance companies declare a vehicle a total loss when damages cost more than its cash value, meaning it would cost more to repair the vehicle than it’s worth. A vehicle may also be deemed a total loss if it’s stolen and not recovered. After a total loss, the insurance company will pay what they determine the vehicle is worth.

GAP coverage is an ancillary product that could pay a portion up to the remainder of the balance owed, but it may not cover additional charges added to the account such as late fees or property tax. GAP coverage is optional and not required to obtain financing.

Total Loss: If there is an overage on the account after the insurance check is applied, a refund will be released within 15 business days.

Insurance Repair: Once repairs deemed necessary by the insurance company are completed and the required documents have been received and verified, a refund will be processed in three business days. The funds will be sent to the body shop repairing the vehicle unless proof that the repair bill has been paid is received by Cadillac Financial.
