The dealership submitted my info to several banks and finally financed me through Capital One. I was able to refi 1.5 yrs later at 4.99% w/ credit score of 636. I've heard that credit unions are generally more lenient. Many banks will request that you pay off any collections accounts prior to financing. Good luck!
This ^^
The CU refi is going your best option once you find a lender that will get you in the door. Or if you have a CU already i'd go and see if they can approve you first.
