How do I refinance car if I owe more than it's worth?

My car is a 2006 and I have a 19% interest rate. The payment is alloted out of check, so never missed a payment. I owe 16,000 and it values for 11,000. Could I be able to refinance, or am I screwed?

    Usually about 6 months. But most impotanly if the rate is a lot lower then when you bought it. If you were to have bought it a month ago, but th inteist ate is about 3.5% or lower now then when you purchased it, I would reccomend doing it now

    No, you won’t be able to refinance since the car is worth less than what you owe.

    You are screwed unless you can come up with the difference.

    Is $16,000 you owe?…..
    There is a difference between owing and what the 10 day payoff balance is minus the interest.
    I bet if you called the bank and ask them what the 10 day or 30 day payoff is without interest it will be a lot lower then $16,000 and perhaps lower then the $11,000 value
