NAPA, Calif. — United Auto Credit (UACC), a California-based nonprime auto finance, has selected AUL to be its national service contract provider. The finance sources will also take advantage of the F&I product provider’s national network of agents and dealers. “Common sense thinking differentiates UACC in the automotive lender space and allows us to create intimate dealer and customer relationships,” said Jim Vagim, president and CEO of UACC. “AUL fits perfectly into our approach as their market knowledge, claims expertise and outstanding reputation truly complement the UACC offering.” The two companies are rolling out the product nationally. Officials said they believe that the co-branded vehicle service contract will add business to the portfolios of both companies. To date, dealer response has been strong with an unprecedented number of dealers signing up to take advantage of the service contract program, according to officials. “AUL and UACC are a perfect fit,” says AUL Chief Operating Officer Jimmy Atkinson. “By working jointly to bring together the strengths of both companies, and providing terrific products, we add value to both companies’ dealers and their customers.”
