A creditor cannot reposses a car without BK court approval (i.e. relief from the automatyic stay). However, if you do not keep paying the car loan, a BK will allow a creditor to reposses the car.

You have not made the car payment as you are filling for bankruptcy- can the bank reposses your car if it is not parked in your parking space?

Until the bankruptcy goes through, you continue to owe the money and the lender continues to own the security. Therefore they can indeed repossess your car. Where the car is parked is irrelevant. In most cases, they won't even know, let alone care, that the space is reserved for you. They will simply find the and remove it. Consult your bankruptcy attorney/solicitor or (in the UK) the Citizens' Advice Bureau for further advice. In the UK, at least, it is possible to be guilty of theft if you attempt to hide a car that belongs to someone else.


Does a lien still show on the title of a vehicle if you file bankruptcy?

Yes, liens survive a BK unless the debtor files an adversary proceeding to have it removed (because the lien impedes an exemption). In a BK, the note from the vehicle sale is discharged- meaning that you cant be forced to pay your car loan. However, the lien survives- so if you dont pay, the lender has the right to re-posses the vehicle. If the lender does go ahead and reposses, the lender cannot go after you for the difference between the loan amount and the amount the vehicle sold for at auction.
