They can repossess your car if you defaulted on the loan. You knew you owed the money and you knew you didn't receive a payment book. It was your obligation to contact the lender to arrange to make your payments. You should seek the advice of an attorney who may be able to negotiate with the lender on your behalf. Not making your payments for your debt on such a technicality is really dangerous.

Yes. Once the lending agreement is in default the lender may take whatever action they choose in recovering the monies owed.

The lender can accept the payment, still repossess the vehicle or pursue litigation.
