Can a bank sue you after repossesion of a car?

After they repossess the vehicle they will sell it for whatever they can get. You are then responsible for the difference in what they sold the car for and the balance owed on the loan. If you do not pay this amount they will take you to court.


How do you sell a car if you have a loan on it but it is worth more than you still owe?

First subtract the amount owed on the vehicle from the value of the car. Sell the car for this amount, then have the buyer take over the loan. This involves paperwork with your current Dealership, DMV, and of course a bank or credit union.


What happens if car repossed?

The bank or loan company will sell the car for whatever the highest bidder will pay. The amount they receive will be deducted from the balance you owed on the car. You will have to pay that difference plus any repossession fees associated with retrieving the car from you. Your credit will be ruined for 7 years because you failed to honor the contract you entered into with the lender.


If you still owe a considerable amount on your car that isn't running should you continue to make the payments and insurance or voluntarily surrender it or sell it and take out a loan for the balance?

Sell or continue to make the payments. Do not let the car be repossed. This would hurt your credit and is the last thing to do.

No, they can't. They can put a judgement on your home, so if you try to sell it and do. They will get the money owed to them, and then you will get the rest. Yes, they can seek a garnishment for the amount. However, garnishments can be filed for your paycheck as well.

Can a bank demand payment in full on an auto loan if the vehicle was repossessed for no insurance?

Yes. A bank repossesses a vehicle for nonpayment. If your vehicle was taken for being on a public roadway and not having insurance, it was impounded. When a vehicle is impounded, a lien is placed on it by the agency which ordered the impound. The interests of government agencies override those of the bank, and they can sell your vehicle to recoup impound costs if you do not reclaim it within a specified period of time. In this case, the bank receives nothing from the sale, and you still owe the bank the remaining balance.


What will happen if you can't pay your car loan?

They take the car. The lending institution will take the car back, sell it at auction, then leave you responsible for the remainder of the debt, which you'll have to pay to the lending institution after they take you to court. As a suggestion, either pay for the car or sell it. You can sell it for far more than they'll get at the auto auction, then you'll have less to owe to the bank. Your car will be repossed and it will have a negative effect on your credit history for a while. * The vehicle can be repossessed and sold at public auction. The borrower will be responsible for the difference (if any) between the sale and loan amount plus the costs of repossession and other applicable fees. A repossession remains on a credit report for 7 years.


How much can a vehicle be sold for once a lien has been secured?

If you have a lien on your vehicle, you can sell it for any amount. The vehicle is still subject to the lien which means that the purchaser can lose the vehicle if the lien holder collects on it.
