Auto Loan Financing Question

If I take out an auto loan and I am paying it monthly, on the statement it lists the principal balance and the interest separately, then total it together for my monthly payment that's due.
Every month I pay more than required and have that extra amount go towards paying down the principal.
Question: If I get the principal payment down to zero, will I still have to pay off the interest charges?

It depends on the type of loan it is, but in most cases the answer is no. Congratulations on paying your loan down faster. 🙂
