If you owe a debt to the bank and they take you to court in order to recover the debt then the court may issue a judgment against you in favour of the bank which entitles the bank to cease you vehicle and to sell it in order for your debt to be paid to them but if the courts award a judgment lien then the bank has the right to seize your vehicle and to retain it in their possession until you have cleared the debt to which owe them whereas upon the debt being paid in full your vehicle shall be returned to you.

What happens to your credit when you give a car back to the bank?

You are not giving it back to the bank, you are having your car voluntarily repossessed. It ruins your credit for 7 years. Which may sound like a bad thing, but in reality will keep you from buying more car than you can afford for the next 7 years, which is a good thing. Remember if you do this, you will still be responsible for the difference in what the bank sells the car for, and the balance on the loan.


Does a clear car title mean not making payments on the car?

How can the cosigner of a car immediately have possession of it after it was repossessed by the bank?

When you cosign for anyone you are taking 100% responsibility for the payments on that car. If the person that gets the car doesn't keep their payments up it will be repossessed by the bank with an option for the cosigner to take over payments or sell the car and pay back the loan. Marcy

They cannot keep the car you were attempting to trade. They can and will take back the car that they were trying to get you financed on.

If that amount cannot be collected from you in cash or a bank in the form of a loan, then you are in default of payment.

If the car is repossessed then that means the bank owns it. So if they own it and they have it, then no you do not need to pay for insurance on it unless you plan on getting it back.

If you sign a finance agreement and now the bank wont finance you do you have to give the car back?

You have to look at the papers that you sign with the car dealer. Typically they make you sign an agreement to bring the car back in the event that they can not get you financed. If they did not have you sign something, then they will probably hold the note themselves and then you have to pay the car dealer. But the short answer is yes, you can not keep the car if you can not pay for it.
