Yes. If he has a repo order, it is no longer YOUR truck.
can a repo man open a closed gate
No one has the right to enter your property to repo a vehicle. I your vehicle is out in the street, then its fair game. If you see the repo man coming but has not hooked up to your vehicle, you legally still have possession of the vehicle. Once the vehicle has made contact with the truck the vehicle belongs to him.
No.Not if the gate is locked. They would have to get a warrent. * The repo man will not come with a warrant. The Sheriff might if the bank has sued and a court has issued a Writ of Replevin. They can come on your property and as long as they do no damage they can take the car.
Probably not. He'd probably ask you to get out of the car.
A repo man uses tools that can break locks and chain up moveable assets. A common tool for every repo man is the tow truck. The truck needs chains, lifts and a pulley system to work effectively.
Chances are the cops at the gate will escort the repo man to your car and let them take it.
You can be arrested.
They wouldn't be able to legally. However the gate would have to LOCKED and not just closed. It would need a lock and/or chain that would prohibit them from opening up the gate. I don't know the exact procedure that you could do legally but I would contact an attorney if I were you.
The repo man will tell you that, but no it is not true.
Go to the banks and Savings and Loans or any place where they give Auto Loans and ask if they need a repo man. But you must have your own truck.
Most likely, the repo man will hook the car to a tow truck or put it on a flatbed tow truck.
If "you" are the lienholder then yes. If you're not the lienholder or their authorized agent (e.g. a repo man working for them), then no.
