How do you stop collections on a repossessed vehicle My car was repossessed in Missouri the bank sold it and now a collector wants me to pay the balance not the difference. Any advice I need help?
When your car is repo'd and it is auctioned off you are to pay only the balance of what you owe on the loan. So if you owed 10,000 and is sold for 8,000 you pay the balance of the loan whic is 2,000. If you have collections on your credit report call and have it investigated this way they cant keep renewing it for 7 years.
What options do you have if your car was repossessed in California you paid the overdue balance but they auctioned it anyway?
Was the lender demanding the BALANCE DUE when you paid only the overdue amount? IF so, your recourse is to pay the balance due. IF not, contact a local attorney for state/case specific advice. None, just because you paid the overdue balance don't mean nuthin to the lender.
Can someone garnish a cosigner for a car and garnish the primary also?
In the State of Texas, the answer would be "YES" as both parties signed for the car loan and both are responsible for the balance due. I was the primary signor but the cosigner had the car and was making the payments. Then she stopped making payments after owning the car for 3 years and the car was repossessed.
