CU Auto Sales

Yes! Two on-site certified appraisers provide the trade-in value of a vehicle by assessing the condition of the vehicle and the market value. You are not required to purchase from CU Auto Sales to have your car appraised for purchase or for CU Auto Sales to buy your old car.

Convenient financing is available through your own credit union. CU Auto Sales was built on the foundation of its partnership with credit unions in New Mexico and values that relationship today. It protects the relationship that a credit union member has with his or her credit union by not financing any transactions in-house and working with the loan officers at each credit union to complete transactions that are beneficial to the member.

Credit Union Auto Services, Inc. (CUASI) is a credit union-owned organization that assists members with the purchase of new vehicles. CUASI can locate a specific vehicle through its wholesale contacts and offer the new vehicle at a competitive price.

Its goal is to educate credit union members about which vehicle is best for them and help them understand the process of purchasing a vehicle. It is not a commission-based dealership, so the sales team works together to ensure that the member’s best interest is the top priority. CU Auto Sales sets vehicle prices so there is no need to negotiate to reach a fair price.

CU Auto Sales purchases vehicles at auctions throughout the Southwest. The vehicles sold at these auctions are late-model, low-mileage vehicles that typically had been used as rentals, company executive vehicles, or leases. CU Auto Sales pulls reports from CARFAX® before each auction to check vehicle histories. Hours before the auction, the CU Auto Sales buyer reviews each vehicle, ensuring that it meets CU Auto Sales’ standards. Once a vehicle is purchased and arrives on the lot in Albuquerque, a certified third-party inspector completes a thorough inspection of each vehicle to ensure that it has not had any unreported repairs. A CU Auto Sales representative reviews these inspection reports with the buyer.
