Yes, but a BK will only, at most, delay a repossession. A chpt. 7 isn't really a way to pay back arrears and its possible the creditor can get a relief from stay. Moreover, its not advisable to file a chpt. 7 merely over late car payments, as you will be prevented from filing another chpt. 7 for a few years.

Yes, you can lose a car if you file for bankruptcy, but it depends on several factors, including the type of bankruptcy you file and the value of the car.
