Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our consolidated subsidiaries, including certain special purpose entities (SPEs) utilized in secured financing transactions, which are considered variable interest entities (VIEs). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, are condensed and do not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the U.S. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements that are included in our Annual Report on Form 10–K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 6, 2019 (2018 Form 10–K). Except as otherwise specified, dollar amounts presented within tables are stated in millions. The condensed consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2019 , and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 , are unaudited and, in management’s opinion, include all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments and transactions or events discretely impacting the interim periods, considered necessary by management to fairly state our results of operations. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2018 was derived from audited annual financial statements. Segment Information We are the wholly-owned captive finance subsidiary of General Motors Company (GM). We offer substantially similar products and services throughout many different regions, subject to local regulations and market conditions. We evaluate our business in two operating segments: North America (the North America Segment) and International (the International Segment). Our North America Segment includes operations in the U.S. and Canada. Our International Segment includes operations in Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Peru, as well as our equity investments in joint ventures in China. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU 2016-02, "Leases" (ASU 2016-02) using the optional transition method, resulting in the recognition of right of use assets of $129 million , included in other assets, and lease obligations of $144 million , included in other liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheet related to our existing operating leases at January 1, 2019. We elected to apply the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance in the new standard, which allowed us to carry forward our historical lease classification. The accounting for finance leases and leases where we are lessor remained substantially unchanged. The application of ASU 2016-02 had no impact on our condensed consolidated statement of income or condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. The following table summarizes our minimum commitments under noncancelable operating leases having initial terms in excess of one year at December 31, 2018: Years Ending December 31, 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 Thereafter Total Minimum commitments $ 27 $ 26 $ 25 $ 23 $ 19 $ 47 $ 167 Refer to Note 9 for information on our operating leases at September 30, 2019 . As lessor, we have investments in leased vehicles recorded as operating leases. Leased vehicles consist of automobiles leased to customers and are carried at amortized cost less unearned manufacturer subvention payments, which are received up front. Depreciation expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease agreement to the estimated residual value. Manufacturer subvention is earned on a straight-line basis as a reduction to depreciation expense. Generally, the lessee may purchase the leased vehicle at the maturity of the lease by paying the purchase price stated in the lease agreement, which equals the contract residual value determined at origination of the lease, plus any fees and all other amounts owed under the lease. If the lessee decides not to purchase the leased vehicle, the lessee must return it to a dealer by the lease's scheduled lease maturity date. Extensions may be granted to the lessee for up to six months. If the lessee extends the maturity date on their lease agreement, the lessee is responsible for additional monthly payments until the leased vehicle is returned or purchased. Since the lessee is not obligated to purchase the vehicle at the end of the contract, we are exposed to a risk of loss to the extent the customer returns the vehicle prior to or at the end of the lease term and the value of the vehicle is lower than the residual value estimated at inception of the lease. We estimate the expected residual value based on third-party data which considers various data points and assumptions including recent auction values, the expected future volume of returning leased vehicles, used vehicle prices, manufacturer incentive programs and fuel prices. Changes in the expected residual value result in increased or decreased depreciation of the leased asset over the remaining term of the lease. Upon disposition, a gain or loss is recorded for any difference between the carrying amount of the lease and the proceeds from the disposition of the asset, including any insurance proceeds. Under the accounting for impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, vehicles on operating leases are evaluated by asset group for impairment. We aggregate leased vehicles into asset groups based on make, year and model. When asset group indicators of impairment exist and aggregate future cash flows from the operating lease, including the expected realizable fair value of the leased assets at the end of the lease, are less than the carrying amount of the lease asset group, an immediate impairment write-down is recognized if the difference is deemed not recoverable. Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" (ASU 2016-13), which requires entities to use a new impairment model based on current expected credit losses (CECL) rather than incurred losses. We plan to adopt ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 on a modified retrospective basis. Estimated credit losses under CECL will consider relevant information about past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectibility of the reported amount, resulting in recognition of lifetime expected credit losses upon loan origination. We are currently validating and refining our risk forecasting models, assumption review processes, corporate governance controls and accounting and financial reporting for our implementation of ASU 2016-13. Upon adoption, we expect to record an adjustment that will increase our allowance for credit losses between $700 million and $900 million , with an after-tax reduction to retained earnings between $500 million and $700 million . The amount of the adjustment is heavily dependent on the volume, credit mix and seasoning of our loan portfolio. |

Related Party Transactions [Abstract] | |
Related Party Transactions | Related Party Transactions We offer loan and lease finance products through GM-franchised dealers to customers purchasing new vehicles manufactured by GM and certain used vehicles and make commercial loans directly to GM-franchised dealers and their affiliates. We also offer commercial loans to dealers that are consolidated by GM and those balances are included in our finance receivables, net. Under subvention programs, GM makes cash payments to us for offering incentivized rates and structures on retail loan and lease finance products. In addition, GM makes cash payments to us to cover interest payments on certain commercial loans. We purchase certain program vehicles from GM subsidiaries. We simultaneously lease these vehicles to those subsidiaries for use primarily in their vehicle-sharing arrangements. We account for these leases as direct-finance leases, sales-type leases or loans depending on the origin of the asset, all of which are included in our finance receivables, net. We periodically purchase finance receivables from other GM subsidiaries for vehicles sold to rental car companies and for vehicles sold to certain dealerships. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 , we purchased $689 million and $371 million of these receivables from GM, which are included in our finance receivables, net. We have related party payables due to GM, primarily for commercial finance receivables originated but not yet funded. The following tables present related party transactions: Balance Sheet Data September 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Commercial finance receivables, net due from dealers consolidated by GM (a) $ 502 $ 445 Finance receivables from GM subsidiaries (a) $ 70 $ 134 Subvention receivable (b) $ 692 $ 727 Commercial loan funding payable (c) $ 61 $ 61 Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, Income Statement Data 2019 2018 2019 2018 Interest subvention earned on retail finance receivables (d) $ 137 $ 125 $ 401 $ 359 Interest subvention earned on commercial finance receivables (d) $ 16 $ 17 $ 47 $ 50 Leased vehicle subvention earned (e) $ 814 $ 827 $ 2,467 $ 2,438 _________________ (a) Included in finance receivables, net. (b) Included in related party receivables. We received subvention payments from GM of $ 1.0 billion and $1.1 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 and $3.1 billion and $2.8 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 . (c) Included in related party payables. (d) Included in finance charge income. (e) Included as a reduction to leased vehicle expenses. Under the support agreement with GM (the Support Agreement), if our earning assets leverage ratio at the end of any calendar quarter exceeds the applicable threshold set in the Support Agreement, we may require GM to provide funding sufficient to bring our earning assets leverage ratio to within the applicable threshold. In determining our earning assets leverage ratio (net earning assets divided by adjusted equity) under the Support Agreement, net earning assets means our finance receivables, net, plus leased vehicles, net, and adjusted equity means our equity, net of goodwill and inclusive of outstanding junior subordinated debt, as each may be adjusted for derivative accounting from time to time. Additionally, the Support Agreement provides that GM will own all of our outstanding voting shares as long as we have any unsecured debt securities outstanding. GM also agrees to certain provisions in the Support Agreement intended to ensure that we maintain adequate access to liquidity. Pursuant to these provisions, GM provides us with a $1.0 billion junior subordinated unsecured intercompany revolving credit facility (the Junior Subordinated Revolving Credit Facility), and GM agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that we will continue to be designated as a subsidiary borrower under GM's corporate revolving credit facilities. In April 2019, GM renewed the 364 -day, $2.0 billion facility (the GM Revolving 364 -Day Credit Facility) for an additional 364 -day term. This facility has been allocated for exclusive access by us since April 2018. At September 30, 2019 , we had no amounts borrowed under any of the GM facilities. We are included in GM's consolidated U.S. federal income tax returns and certain U.S. state returns, and we are obligated to pay GM for our share of these tax liabilities. Amounts owed to GM for income taxes are accrued and recorded as a related party payable. At September 30, 2019 , we had a related party taxes payable of $4 million . At December 31, 2018 , we had no related party taxes payable. |

Rollforward of Allowance for Retail Loan Losses A summary of the activity in the allowance for retail loan losses is as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 2018 2019 2018 Allowance for retail loan losses beginning balance $ 881 $ 815 $ 844 $ 889 Provision for loan losses 149 176 492 434 Charge-offs (300 ) (285 ) (886 ) (878 ) Recoveries 133 130 410 398 Foreign currency translation (7 ) 3 (4 ) (4 ) Allowance for retail loan losses ending balance $ 856 $ 839 $ 856 $ 839 Retail Credit Quality Our retail finance receivables portfolio includes loans made to consumers and businesses to finance the purchase of vehicles for personal and commercial use. We review the credit quality of our retail finance receivables based on customer payment activity. A retail account is considered delinquent if a substantial portion of a scheduled payment has not been received by the date such payment was contractually due. Retail finance receivables are collateralized by vehicle titles and, subject to local laws, we generally have the right to repossess the vehicle in the event the customer defaults on the payment terms of the contract. The following is a consolidated summary of the contractual amounts of delinquent retail finance receivables, which is not significantly different than the recorded investment for such receivables: September 30, 2019 September 30, 2018 Amount Percent of Contractual Amount Due Amount Percent of Contractual Amount Due 31 - 60 days $ 1,252 3.0 % $ 1,302 3.4 % Greater than 60 days 514 1.2 498 1.3 Total finance receivables more than 30 days delinquent 1,766 4.2 1,800 4.7 In repossession 48 0.1 53 0.2 Total finance receivables more than 30 days delinquent or in repossession $ 1,814 4.3 % $ 1,853 4.9 % At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the accrual of finance charge income had been suspended on retail finance receivables with contractual amounts due of $853 million and $888 million . Impaired Retail Finance Receivables - TDRs Retail finance receivables that become classified as troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) are separately assessed for impairment. A specific allowance is estimated based on the present value of the expected future cash flows of the receivable discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate. Accounts that become classified as TDRs because of a payment deferral accrue interest at the contractual rate and an additional fee is collected (where permitted) at each time of deferral and recorded as a reduction of accrued interest. No interest or fees are forgiven on a payment deferral to a customer; therefore, there are no additional financial effects of deferred loans becoming classified as TDRs. Accounts in the U.S. in Chapter 13 bankruptcy would have already been placed on non-accrual; therefore, there are no additional financial effects from these loans becoming classified as TDRs. Finance charge income from loans classified as TDRs is accounted for in the same manner as other accruing loans. Cash collections on these loans are allocated according to the same payment hierarchy methodology applied to loans that are not classified as TDRs. The outstanding recorded investment for retail finance receivables that are considered to be TDRs and the related allowance is presented below: September 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Outstanding recorded investment $ 2,390 $ 2,348 Less: allowance for loan losses (337 ) (321 ) Outstanding recorded investment, net of allowance $ 2,053 $ 2,027 Unpaid principal balance $ 2,416 $ 2,379 Additional information about loans classified as TDRs is presented below: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 2018 2019 2018 Average outstanding recorded investment $ 2,372 $ 2,293 $ 2,369 $ 2,268 Finance charge income recognized $ 60 $ 59 $ 191 $ 185 Number of loans classified as TDRs during the period 19,074 17,924 53,013 51,020 Recorded investment of loans classified as TDRs during the period $ 343 $ 319 $ 969 $ 932 The unpaid principal balance, net of recoveries, of loans charged off during the reporting period within 12 months of being modified as a TDR was insignificant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 . Commercial Credit Quality Our commercial finance receivables consist of dealer financings, primarily for inventory purchases. Proprietary models are used to assign a risk rating to each dealer. We perform periodic credit reviews of each dealership and adjust the dealership's risk rating, if necessary. Dealers in Group VI are subject to additional restrictions on funding, including suspension of lines of credit and liquidation of assets. The following table summarizes the credit risk profile by dealer risk rating of commercial finance receivables: September 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Amount Percent Amount Percent Group I - Dealers with superior financial metrics $ 1,924 14.5 % $ 2,192 17.2 % Group II - Dealers with strong financial metrics 5,398 40.6 4,500 35.4 Group III - Dealers with fair financial metrics 4,243 31.9 4,292 33.7 Group IV - Dealers with weak financial metrics 1,327 10.0 1,205 9.5 Group V - Dealers warranting special mention due to elevated risks 332 2.5 449 3.5 Group VI - Dealers with loans classified as substandard, doubtful or impaired 74 0.5 83 0.7 Balance at end of period $ 13,298 100.0 % $ 12,721 100.0 % At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , substantially all of our commercial finance receivables were current with respect to payment status. Commercial finance receivables on non-accrual status were insignificant, and none were classified as TDRs. Activity in the allowance for commercial loan losses was insignificant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 . |

General Motors Financial Company, Inc. is the sole guarantor of its subsidiaries' unsecured debt obligations for which a guarantee is provided. Compliance with Debt Covenants Several of our revolving credit facilities require compliance with certain financial and operational covenants as well as regular reporting to lenders, including providing certain subsidiary financial statements. Certain of our secured debt agreements also contain various covenants, including maintaining portfolio performance ratios as well as limits on deferment levels. Our unsecured debt obligations contain covenants including limitations on our ability to incur certain liens. At September 30, 2019 , we were in compliance with these debt covenants. |

These amounts are related to securitization and credit facilities held by consolidated VIEs. Our continuing involvement with these VIEs consists of servicing assets held by the entities and holding residual interests in the entities. We have determined that we are the primary beneficiary of each VIE because we hold both (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact the VIEs' economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses from and the right to receive benefits of the VIEs that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. We are not required, and do not currently intend, to provide any additional financial support to these VIEs. Liabilities recognized as a result of consolidating these entities generally do not represent claims against us or our other subsidiaries and assets recognized generally are for the benefit of these entities' operations and cannot be used to satisfy our or our other subsidiaries' obligations. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities | Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities We are exposed to certain risks arising from both our business operations and economic conditions. We manage economic risks, including interest rate risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of our assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, we enter into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. Our derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of our known or expected cash receipts and our known or expected cash payments principally related to our borrowings. Certain of our foreign operations expose us to fluctuations of foreign interest rates and exchange rates. We primarily finance our earning assets with debt in the same currency to minimize the impact to earnings from our exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates. When we use a different currency, these fluctuations may impact the value of our cash receipts and payments in terms of our functional currency. We enter into derivative financial instruments to protect the value or fix the amount of certain assets and liabilities in terms of the relevant functional currency. The table below presents the gross amounts of fair value of our derivative instruments and the associated notional amounts: September 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Notional Fair Value of Assets (a) Fair Value of Liabilities (a) Notional Fair Value of Assets (a) Fair Value of Liabilities (a) Derivatives designated as hedges Fair value hedges Interest rate swaps $ 10,702 $ 384 $ 4 $ 9,533 $ 42 $ 231 Foreign currency swaps 1,744 — 101 1,829 37 60 Cash flow hedges Interest rate swaps 553 1 5 768 8 — Foreign currency swaps 4,269 16 241 2,075 43 58 Derivatives not designated as hedges Interest rate contracts 86,848 302 384 99,666 372 520 Total (b) $ 104,116 $ 703 $ 735 $ 113,871 $ 502 $ 869 _________________ (a) The gross amounts of the fair value of our assets and liabilities are included in other assets and other liabilities, respectively. Amounts accrued for interest payments in a net receivable position are included in other assets. Amounts accrued for interest payments in a net payable position are included in other liabilities. All our derivatives are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value for Level 2 instruments was derived using the market approach based on observable market inputs including quoted prices of similar instruments and foreign exchange and interest rate forward curves. (b) We primarily enter into derivative instruments through AmeriCredit Financial Services, Inc. (AFSI); however, our SPEs may also be parties to derivative instruments. Agreements between AFSI and its derivative counterparties include rights of setoff for positions with offsetting values or for collateral held or posted. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the fair value of assets and liabilities available for offset was $383 million and $320 million . At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , we held $258 million and $30 million of collateral from counterparties which is available for netting against our asset positions. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , we posted $129 million and $451 million of collateral to counterparties which is available for netting against our liability positions.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies Operating Leases Our lease obligations consist primarily of real estate office space. Certain leases contain escalation clauses and renewal options, and generally our leases have no residual value guarantees or material covenants. We exclude from our balance sheet leases with a term equal to one year or less and do not separate non-lease components from our real estate leases. Rent expense under operating leases was $10 million and $28 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 . Variable lease costs were insignificant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 . At September 30, 2019 , operating lease right of use assets, included in other assets, were $135 million and operating lease liabilities, included in other liabilities, were $157 million . Operating lease right of use assets obtained in exchange for lease obligations were $30 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 . At September 30, 2019 , our undiscounted future lease obligations related to operating leases having initial terms in excess of one year were $7 million for the three months ending December 31, 2019 and $27 million , $26 million , $24 million , $20 million and $83 million for the years 2020 , 2021 , 2022 , 2023 and thereafter, with imputed interest of $30 million at September 30, 2019 . The weighted average discount rate was 4.5% and the weighted average remaining lease term was 8.0 years at September 30, 2019 . Lease agreements that have not yet commenced were insignificant at September 30, 2019. Guarantees of Indebtedness At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , we guaranteed $1.1 billion in aggregate principal amount of Euro Medium Term Notes issued by General Motors Financial International B.V., our former subsidiary, pursuant to our Euro Medium Term Note Programme. Subject to the terms and conditions of a letter agreement with BNP Paribas in connection with the sale of certain of our European operations, BNP Paribas will reimburse us for any amount that we may pay under any such guarantees. Legal Proceedings We are subject to various pending and potential legal and regulatory proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including litigation, arbitration, claims, investigations, examinations, subpoenas and enforcement proceedings. Some litigation against us could take the form of class actions. The outcome of these proceedings is inherently uncertain, and thus we cannot confidently predict how or when proceedings will be resolved. An adverse outcome in one or more of these proceedings could result in substantial damages, settlements, fines, penalties, diminished income or reputational harm. We identify below the material proceedings in connection with which we believe a material loss is reasonably possible or probable. In accordance with the current accounting standards for loss contingencies, we establish reserves for legal matters when it is probable that a loss associated with the matter has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The actual costs of resolving legal matters may be higher or lower than any amounts reserved for these matters. At September 30, 2019 , we estimated our reasonably possible legal exposure for unfavorable outcomes is up to $55 million , and we have accrued $19 million . In 2014 and 2015, we were served with investigative subpoenas from various state attorneys general and other governmental offices to produce documents and data relating to our automobile loan and lease business and securitization of loans and leases. We believe that we have cooperated fully with all reasonable requests for information. We are currently unable to estimate any reasonably possible loss or range of loss that may result from these investigations. Other Administrative Tax Matters We accrue non-income tax liabilities for contingencies when management believes that a loss is probable and the amounts can be reasonably estimated, while contingent gains are recognized only when realized. In the event any losses are sustained in excess of accruals, they will be charged against income at that time. In evaluating indirect tax matters, we take into consideration factors such as our historical experience with matters of similar nature, specific facts and circumstances, and the likelihood of prevailing. We reevaluate and update our accruals as matters progress over time. Where there is a reasonable possibility that losses exceeding amounts already recognized may be incurred, our estimate of the additional range of loss is up to $11 million at September 30, 2019 . |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes For interim income tax reporting we estimate our annual effective tax rate and apply it to our year-to-date ordinary income. Tax jurisdictions with a projected or year-to-date loss for which a tax benefit cannot be realized are excluded from the annualized effective tax rate. The tax effects of unusual or infrequently occurring items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and effects of changes in tax laws or rates, are reported in the interim period in which they occur. During the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 , income tax expense of $195 million and $57 million primarily resulted from tax expense attributable to entities included in our effective tax rate calculation. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 , income tax expense of $416 million and $225 million primarily resulted from tax expense attributable to entities included in our effective tax rate calculation. The increase in income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 is primarily due to a reduction in our electric vehicle tax credit in 2019 and a favorable impact from the U.S. tax reform in 2018. We are included in GM’s consolidated U.S. federal income tax return and for certain states’ income tax returns. Net operating losses and certain tax credits generated by us have been utilized by GM; however, income tax expense and deferred tax balances are presented in these financial statements as if we filed our own tax returns in each jurisdiction. |

Our International Segment includes operations in Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Peru, as well as our equity investments in joint ventures in China. |
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards | Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU 2016-02, "Leases" (ASU 2016-02) using the optional transition method, resulting in the recognition of right of use assets of $129 million , included in other assets, and lease obligations of $144 million , included in other liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheet related to our existing operating leases at January 1, 2019. We elected to apply the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance in the new standard, which allowed us to carry forward our historical lease classification. The accounting for finance leases and leases where we are lessor remained substantially unchanged. The application of ASU 2016-02 had no impact on our condensed consolidated statement of income or condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. The following table summarizes our minimum commitments under noncancelable operating leases having initial terms in excess of one year at December 31, 2018: Years Ending December 31, 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 Thereafter Total Minimum commitments $ 27 $ 26 $ 25 $ 23 $ 19 $ 47 $ 167 Refer to Note 9 for information on our operating leases at September 30, 2019 . As lessor, we have investments in leased vehicles recorded as operating leases. Leased vehicles consist of automobiles leased to customers and are carried at amortized cost less unearned manufacturer subvention payments, which are received up front. Depreciation expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease agreement to the estimated residual value. Manufacturer subvention is earned on a straight-line basis as a reduction to depreciation expense. Generally, the lessee may purchase the leased vehicle at the maturity of the lease by paying the purchase price stated in the lease agreement, which equals the contract residual value determined at origination of the lease, plus any fees and all other amounts owed under the lease. If the lessee decides not to purchase the leased vehicle, the lessee must return it to a dealer by the lease's scheduled lease maturity date. Extensions may be granted to the lessee for up to six months. If the lessee extends the maturity date on their lease agreement, the lessee is responsible for additional monthly payments until the leased vehicle is returned or purchased. Since the lessee is not obligated to purchase the vehicle at the end of the contract, we are exposed to a risk of loss to the extent the customer returns the vehicle prior to or at the end of the lease term and the value of the vehicle is lower than the residual value estimated at inception of the lease. We estimate the expected residual value based on third-party data which considers various data points and assumptions including recent auction values, the expected future volume of returning leased vehicles, used vehicle prices, manufacturer incentive programs and fuel prices. Changes in the expected residual value result in increased or decreased depreciation of the leased asset over the remaining term of the lease. Upon disposition, a gain or loss is recorded for any difference between the carrying amount of the lease and the proceeds from the disposition of the asset, including any insurance proceeds. Under the accounting for impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, vehicles on operating leases are evaluated by asset group for impairment. We aggregate leased vehicles into asset groups based on make, year and model. When asset group indicators of impairment exist and aggregate future cash flows from the operating lease, including the expected realizable fair value of the leased assets at the end of the lease, are less than the carrying amount of the lease asset group, an immediate impairment write-down is recognized if the difference is deemed not recoverable. Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" (ASU 2016-13), which requires entities to use a new impairment model based on current expected credit losses (CECL) rather than incurred losses. We plan to adopt ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 on a modified retrospective basis. Estimated credit losses under CECL will consider relevant information about past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectibility of the reported amount, resulting in recognition of lifetime expected credit losses upon loan origination. We are currently validating and refining our risk forecasting models, assumption review processes, corporate governance controls and accounting and financial reporting for our implementation of ASU 2016-13. Upon adoption, we expect to record an adjustment that will increase our allowance for credit losses between $700 million and $900 million , with an after-tax reduction to retained earnings between $500 million and $700 million . The amount of the adjustment is heavily dependent on the volume, credit mix and seasoning of our loan portfolio. |
