Yes, you must pay the entire loan off.
Laws says IF it brings more than you owe, you get the surplus. IF it brings less than you owe, you PAY the defiency.
They can take whatever the security for the loan was. For example, if you have an auto loan, they can repossess the auto. If you have a home loan, they can repossess the home. If the loan was a recourse loan and the value of whatever was repossessed was less than the amount still owed on the loan, they can get a deficiency judgment in a court of law. If the court grants a judgment, they can they take other assets.
Generally, if the car was sold for less than the amount owed on the loan the lender may demand that you pay the remaining balance owed.
NO. 0.45% is not less than 0.01 %.
You owe the difference I think.
YES. Read your contract. Does it say the lender cant repo IF you have no other vehicle? I think not. Less than a month behind??? Some lenders will repo when you get 3 days late. Any time you are in DEFAULT of the loan, the lender CAN repo. They may not, but they can.
You will have to contact the holder of the loan and make arrangements to get current and pay the penalty BUT They can refuse anything less than 100% payment with additional fees because they had to spend the money to repo it.
