The creditor can obtain a replevin order from the court if it becomes necessary. Wisconsin is the only state which requires a replevin order to be in place before a vehicle can be recovered. All other states allow repossession under the UCC laws, although some do require the borrower to be notified and given a specified time to bring the account current before the vehicle can be seized..

Same as a regular repo. The creditor may still put the repossession on your credit report and it would stay there for up to seven years. Notice the word "may", because it is at the creditor's discretion...

Can they issue a warrant on you if they cant find the vehicle?
Yes. Your question does not make any sense, but yes. A warrant for your arrest can be signed at any time with sufficient cause. A better question is why do you think your getting a warrant and how is it related to this vehicle. You filed under repossession, and to my knowledge you cannot get a warrant for hiding something from being repo'd. They are separate schools of law, the repossession being under a breach of contract between you and the loaning institution (contract law I think its called), and a warrant would be regarding criminal law.

Can you willingly repossess a car?
Unless you are a creditor, I assume you mean can you surrender a car to the lender in a voluntary repossession. If the creditor will do it, you can. Obviously it will depend on the mileage and condition of the car, but these days it is complicated by the state of the economy, so not likely. You can surrender the vehicle in a Chapter 7, where the creditor has no choice.

Is it a crime to hide your car that is in repo in IL?
Yes, it is called hindering a creditor, or hindering repossession. It is not likely that you will be arrested for such, but it is far more likely that the creditor will obtain an order of replevin. If such occurs, the repossession agent is likely to return with this order accompanied by a law enforcement officer who will order you to surrender the vehicle. If you refuse you will be arrested, and you will have to surrender the car to secure your release.
How long after a repossession can a creditor sue you?

Can you face charges for concealing car in Ohio?
While the debtor does not have to unlock the vehicle, turn over the keys, or allow the repossession agent access to the garage, purposely attempting to hide the vehicle can be considered a crime if the debtor does it with the intention of hindering a secured creditor from obtaining access to its rightful property. That said, the debtor is not obligated to assist the repossession agent in any way in obtaining the vehicle.
