Yes. There are no laws stating that any creditor has to report to any more than one credit bureau (and the creditor is allowed to choose which one to report to).

What if the finance company after 8 months never get their vehicle one day the driver gets pulled over by the police will they take the vehicle?

This depends on where you are.If you are in an area where it is illegal to hide the vehicle from the finance company you will get arrested, the vehicle will be impounded and the finance company notified.Added: If you have been concealing the vehicle from the creditor and at the same time not beein making payments, the creditor may well have filed a stolen vehicle report with the police.You have wrongfully deprived the creditor of their property (i.e.: THEY own it - not you). If the vehicle turns up in the police records as stolen they will not only confiscate the vehicle - you could be facing criminal charges as well.

Why would the credit score of 1 agency stay the same while the other 2 increase over time?

The 3 agencies are independent from one another. They take info as it is submitted from creditors, empoyers and other sources and collate the data into a report that is rated by FICO or another scoring model to give your credit score. If you submit an application and the creditor only checks your Experian report, the inquiry does not appear on the other two. If you bank with a small lender or have a collection with a tow company or something similar, they may only report to one or two of the agencies.
