    MPI Tire Program FAQ

    Please see the chart below. The rates are from the Bank of Canada and are subject to change. Prime plus 2%. Depending on your term and amount financed your payment may differ.

    If your purchase exceeds the $2,000 maximum, you will be required to pay the excess amount.

     

    To be eligible for the Winter Tire Program, you must:

    • Be an individual (not corporate) Manitoba Public Insurance customer
    • Purchase qualifying winter tires for a passenger vehicle or light truck registered under your name
    • Not be subject to financing restrictions or have outstanding arrears on your Manitoba Public Insurance account
    • Be the registered owner of the vehicle

    If you hold a student, work, or visitor Visa permit you are not authorized for financing through a retailer.

    No, there is not credit bureau pulled. It is strictly through Manitoba Public Insurance.

    No, it does not. If the customer should sell the vehicle or write off a vehicle, the loan remains with the customer not the vehicle.

    Yes, they are eligible for the program but they will be required to pay the loan on the winter tires if there are payments remaining after the lease is up.

    No, the loan does not report to the credit bureau. Only if the customer fails to pay their loan, Manitoba Public Insurance collections officers will attempt to collect from the customer. If the attempt is unsuccessful, the debt is sold to a collection agency for further collection. At that point, it will be reported to the credit bureau.

    Yes you can. It is an open loan so there is no penalty to paying it earlier than the initial loan term chosen.
