EXHIBIT 33.1

Management's Assertion Regarding Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria

Exeter Finance LLC (“Exeter”) is responsible for assessing compliance with the servicing criteria applicable to it under paragraph (d) of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Reporting Period”), as set forth in Appendix A hereto. The transactions covered by this report include all publicly issued asset-backed security transactions backed by consumer auto retail installment sale contracts for which Exeter is the servicer (the “Platform”). The individual asset-backed transactions that we have defined as constituting the Platform are included in Appendix B.

Exeter has engaged vendors, which are not servicers as defined in Item 1101(j) of Regulation AB, to perform specific, limited or scripted activities (the “Vendors”), and Exeter elects to take responsibility for assessing compliance with the servicing criteria or portion of the servicing criteria applicable to each such Vendor’s activities as set forth in Appendix A hereto. Exeter has policies and procedures in place to provide reasonable assurance that each such Vendor’s activities comply in all material respects with the servicing criteria or portion of the servicing criteria applicable to each such Vendor.

Except as set forth in paragraph 4 below, Exeter used the criteria set forth in paragraph (d) of Item 1122 of Regulation AB to assess compliance with the applicable servicing criteria.

The criteria listed in the column titled “Inapplicable Servicing Criteria” in Appendix A hereto are inapplicable to Exeter based on the activities it performs, directly or through its Vendors, with respect to the Platform.

Exeter has complied, in all material respects, with the criteria listed as applicable in the first two columns of Appendix A hereto (the “Applicable Servicing Criteria”) as of December 31, 2025 and for the Reporting Period with respect to the Platform taken as a whole.

Exeter has not identified and is not aware of any material instance of noncompliance by the Vendors with regard to the Applicable Servicing Criteria, as of December 31, 2025, and for the Reporting Period with respect to the Platform taken as a whole.

Exeter has not identified any material deficiencies in our policies and procedures to monitor the compliance by the Vendors with the Applicable Servicing Criteria, as of December 31, 2025, and for the Reporting Period with respect to the Platform taken as a whole.

Ernst & Young LLP, a registered public accounting firm has issued an attestation report with respect to our foregoing assessment of compliance as of and for the Reporting Period.
