When there are multiple liens on a car, it is possible for either lien holder to repossess it. However, one lien holder is normally in the first position and the other one is in the second position. The one with his name on the title is normally the one in the first position and is the one who gets paid first when a car is repossessed, no matter who does the actual repossession.

The state doesn't repossess your car - private companies do that on behalf of the lienholder. They don't charge you for private property left in your car when they repossess it - that would be illegal. They charge a "storage fee" for the items they remove from your car. Underhanded, yes, but they can legally do it.
