Auto loan performance was mixed in September as delinquencies increased but defaults declined. Loans delinquent for 60 days or more increased for the fifth month in a row and were up 13.3% from a year ago.<ref>https://www.coxautoinc.com/market-insights/auto-market-weekly-summary-10-16-23/</ref>
* '''In September, 1.89% of auto loans were severely delinquent.''' That was up from August’s 1.85% rate and was the highest September rate dating back to at least 2006.
* '''7.38% of subprime loans were severely delinquent.''' That was an increase for the month from 7.17% in August and was the highest rate for any month dating back to at least 2006. The subprime severe delinquency rate was 72 basis points higher than a year ago, while the aggregate was 16 BPs higher.
* '''Defaults of auto loans declined by 9.8% in total in September from August but were up 31.7% from a year ago.''' Defaults of subprime auto loans declined by 11% but were up 18% from last year.
* During the summer, credit access was made more accessible across all channels and lender types. The All-Loans Index showed an increase of 0.2% to 97.1 in September. This means that '''access is now tighter by 5.9% year over year. Compared to February 2020, access is tighter by 2.1%.'''<ref>https://www.coxautoinc.com/market-insights/september-2023-dealertrack-cai/</ref>
* Movement in credit availability factors was mixed in September. Approval rates increased, subprime share increased, negative equity share increased, down payments declined, and those moves improved consumer credit access. However, average terms lengthened, yield spreads widened, and those moves hurt consumer credit access.
