How long can a repossession stay on your credit report?
This is tricky. There is no actual listing of the repossession on your credit report. There is a notation in relation to the debt owed. For example: say you borrowed the money for your car from ABC Bank. ABC Bank will then show as a credit action on your report. Next to that will be the balance of the debt, potentially the length of the contract, and a month by month code of your payment history in terms of thirty day payments. If the loan is defaulted, this will be noted. If the vehicle is repossessed, this will be noted as well. If no judgment is obtained, the notation will remain for seven years from the date of last payment. In the event of a judgment, it will remain for ten years.

When faced with a competent defense, most creditors, debt buyers in particular, cannot prove their case against you. Winning the case is court certainly goes a long ways toward providing you with a sound basis to dispute the alleged debt on your credit report.
