The lender can charge you interest on the LOAN, as long as it is not charged off. Once the loan is charged off, the account is essentially closed. It is at this point that they will begin legal proceedings and the big charges are added to the balance: court costs, legal fees, collections costs. And these do not stop mounting after the judgment is granted. It just keeps going.

The car will be sold at auction. Whatever it sells for at auction will be deducted from the balance remaining. The credit company may initially offer to accept a reduced amount on the balance, but, if you're unable to pay that, they will turn it over to collections for the full amount of the balance remaining.

It depends on the type of loan. Most mortgage (home) loans are of a type where the interest you pay is on the "remaining balance". It stands to reason therefore that if you reduce the remaining balance the interest will be calculated on a smaller balance and therefore be a smaller amount.
