From what you describe it has no legal grounds on which to repossess your vehicle unless you missed some provision in the contract that has been breached. You may need to obtain a release of the lien from the lien holder to clear the title. You should try to contact the consumer division of your state attorney general for more information. If possible, you should get some advice from an attorney and act as soon as possible.
