A dealer will never repossess, UNLESS they are also the financier. most dealerships sell the loan to a bank, whom you make payment to... this bank will be the "reposseser". Now, that's not to say that the bank will not notify local dealers to be on the lookout for a car they are actively chasing to repossess, but most of the time they will just come to your residence to serve the repo. I have never heard of a dealership doing so, because most banks have folks that can get your car by other means if they want it back bad enough.

IF the dealer is acting as the banks agent(hired to repo), YES.IF you bought the car from that dealer, the dealer may have had "recourse" on the loan, so that he/she had to do the dirty work if you didnt pay. $124.00 is not the main question, how LONG has the $124.00 been in default??
