YES The bank can file suit, receive a writ of judgment and execute the judgment pursuant to state garnishment laws to recover any deficiency or other monies owed relating to the repossession. However, if the debtor has an account at the same bank where the loan is held, the bank probably has the legal right to remove whatever amount is necessary from a savings or checking account w/o the regular lawsuit process. The majority of loans procured through a bank will have a "set off" clause in the contract which allows them to take this action.
