Looks at the $10,000,000,000 jump last month in consumer debt. Auto sales are a record levels. Ignore though that the sub prime auto finance default rate is at disturbing levels. Aunty Janet though can fix that with a click of the mouse.
Loss rate is running at about 5%, not in itself horrible, except in our fed orchestrated low rate environment, rates charged on the sub primes clearly will not be able to cover the losses. Look for substantial defaults and of course bailouts.

I am not suggesting that the auto loans approach the mortgage debacle. The loan amounts are smaller by a factor of 10 and the lenders are at least a little smarter now....I hope.
Problem is auto production as been the shining light of the economy. Of course underpriced loans combined with pent up demand has been the catalyst. As the subprimes (as well as the traditional loans) become properly priced in the future, it will take some heavy wind out of car sales.

What matters here is the current life expectancy of the payments regardless of their historical levels. The strength of an economy attempting to absorb such losses will determine the economic seriousness of the losses. The weight of subprime loans in the overall picture of consumer debt is important. We are at a low in consumer debt where a failure in student loans and in subprime auto loans will have a more dramatic affect on the overall economy.

Do central banks really believe that consumption/demand should be driven by fear (of higher prices)? Didn't Germany experience this many years ago? This time it will be different? >>
That is the foundation of Keynesian economics. FAIL.
The real driver of the economy is employment and the business risk of supply-side and the accompanying demands. Works 100% of the time.
<< <i>Are today's delinquencies comparable to the rates in 2008-2010? Has the average age if a car risen since 2008? What us the life expectancy if a car? >>
Good questions but I don't have the time or desire to do a deep dive on the subject.
A close friend was on Wall Street doing risk analysis for many prominent lenders. He contend, and I agree that any risk can be priced.
The subprime loans are grossly underpriced for the risk as an estimated 50% loss will be taken on each non performing loan. The durability of an auto is of small consequence (remember these as sub prime borrowers) as the repossessed assets are often in very poor condition.
Of course in a zero percent interest world, the 5% or 6% received by the bondholders seemed like a windfall, but will ultimately be a disaster. Of course Lew and Yellen will probably cut them a check as this is America in 2014.
I don't have the time or desire to do a deep dive on the subject
Then perhaps before you make a statement like " the sub prime auto finance default rate is at disturbing levels", you should take the time to truly understand what you are saying.
Its so in vogue these days to just spout off the popular mantras which im sure gets great admiration from the neophytes, but does little to build trust and confidence.
Its like that stupid TV show "survivor". Its always the less weak of the weak that "wins". In my book, that isnt a win.
"The effectiveness of the benchmark rate set by central bank targets to stimulate bank lending is drained as it approaches zero and cannot be lowered further through central bank open market operations to stimulate more economic activities. This is because negative interest rates cause depositors to pay interest to the deposit-taking bank for the privilege of depositing money with the bank. That abnormal arrangement can reduce the bank's incentive to put deposits to work by taking manageable risk in lending to earn returns on deposits above interest paid to depositors. The spread between interest paid on deposits and return on investment using deposits is the profit made by banks.
Negative interest rates cause creditors (deposit-makers), to pay debtors (depositing-taking banks) for the privilege of letting the borrowers use the lenders' money - an arrangement that violates the fundamental principle of finance."

You question was.....
""""Are today's delinquencies comparable to the rates in 2008-2010? Has the average age if a car risen since 2008? What us the life expectancy if a car?""""
Now are you truly suggesting that to have a legitimate and coherent opinion on whether subprime auto loans are at risk, I need to fully research the delinquency rates of 2008, 2009, and 2010?
Do I also need to know the average age of a car today vs 2008?
And should I research the life expectancy of each car by brand and model to have an informed decision on current default rates and why the risk is being grossly underpriced?
That is quite a hurdle for a forum debate and frankly has little impact on the question on the table.
I believe that the current non performance statistics vs the under market rates charged and the promised return to bondholders are sufficient to determine that these bonds will soon go into default if not supported by a government bailout.
It is Sunday though so I will put on the favorite forum, rose colored glasses, sip a Corona or two and pretend that all is well in the financial world.

It is difficult to see much positive with a JV administration and its puppet fed chiefs saran wrapping problems with previously failed socialist policy and hoping against hope that they work.
Strong auto sales are a combination of demand as well as stealing money from savers and handing it over to borrowers at rates substantially below true risk rates. All risk can be properly rated to mitigate losses but in an artificially rigged market, those looking for a better than guaranteed return on investment are going to get slaughtered.
If your magic mirror shows that the national work participation rate will bounce substantially higher that current 35 year lows and real wages will rise to at least keep pace with inflation and the ACA part time work week that new hires are facing will correct to 36-40 hour work weeks, than your prediction of a buoyant, sustainable, non default auto market may prove true.
The cynic and realist in me does not see that occurring anytime soon
I notice that some new cars offer low interest or even near zero interest if you have good credit and buy when they offer it and use their financing. If you offer cash, they don't drop the price except that you might get cashback, maybe $1000 but the interest on a 4 year loan even at a low rate would be several times that much.
Maybe the finance/interest and some cost for risk of defaults are already at least partly worked into the car prices.
I always avoid car payments but when buying a car it seems like it's ignoring near zero interest.

Although the index cited by the author is up considerably over the past two years, the ten year annualized increase is remarkably tame: 0.4 %.
