Yes; but it will take a while after the repossession.

In 1997 I missed a few payments on my car and the repo men came to collect it. I had to pay off enough to my bank that they would release the car back to me. My credit took a SERIOUS hit which stayed with me for 5 years.

During that time I was deemed a credit risk and while I still had banks and institutions willing to loan me money; it was at an outrageous interest rate because my credit was lousy from the repossession.

Right after the repo I made sure that I paid all my bills on time; paid off at least the minimum payments every month on my credit cards and kept that up until I had enough positive credit that the old stuff (repossession and other missed payments) fell off the report.

It takes time, serious dedication to be responsible with those payments, and making some sacrifices until I was in better financial shape.
