Can the loan company issue a criminal warrant for arrest for non-payment on a auto loan?

Warrants are issued by a judge, and not a loan company. The loan company can repossess an automobile or can sue in court to recover the vehicle or what is owed on it (plus costs). The police do not come and arrest people for not paying off a loan. Lastly, disagreements over payment issues regarding a car loan are civil matters, not criminal ones. Also please be aware that is illegal for an institution collecting debt to threaten arrest, or imprisonment. You can report this to the FTC (if they are under their regulatory authority) and state Attorney General.

No. They will contact you and ask you why you DID NOT make a payment to them. If you are on a very tight budget and can't make that payment, it is understandable for one month. If the second month, that you don't make a payment to them, then your account will be inactive and you will end up paying the creditors yourself.


Can a warrant be placed for your arrest if you don't pay back a payday loan in Michigan?

Lawsuits brought by lenders are always civil court cases which do not involve arresting a defendant. There are cases, however, where a judge wants the borrower (or their legal representative) to be present during court proceedings. In these cases, the judge may place a bench warrant which will result in eventual arrest. The goal here, is not jail, but to get the borrower to show up and take responsibility for their actions.
