Typically, no. Now if you hide the vehicle and tell the repossessor that you don't know where it is, they might try to report that vehicle stolen, or, more likely, file a missing property report.

If the finance company can't get your vehicle, then they'll simply let the courts do their work for them.

Can the repo man search through your personal items such as your purse and briefcase and turn illegal items over to the police and then get charges filed against you or have you arrested?

How personal items are handled when a vehicle is repossesed is pursuant to state laws. However, even if said person(s) turned illegal substances over to the authorities, it is unlikely charges could be brought, it would in the majority of instances not be considered a legal search.

Most people dont know you can ask to pay just the intrest on your car note you can do this three times at most any finance co.

Get your agreement in writing!!!!!They can tell you anything and still repo especially at 60 days out.

What do you do when repo man is here?

Repo agents aren’t allowed to ”break the peace”. By simply confronting or sitting inside your vehicle, they will be unable to tow. This doesn’t mean law enforcement won’t be called in which case you may possibly have to turn over the car, usually depending on your states laws.

What itf you hide a car?

I assume you mean from a repo man. It is illegal to hide a car to prevent repossession. In some states criminal charges can be filed against you. In the end they will get the car. The lender does not want to repo the car anymore than you want it repossessed. Both you and the lender loose.Even if you hide the car eventually they will find it. Don't be foolish and try to hide it. Just set down with them and see if you can work out a deal? If not, then just turn the car over to them. This will save you the repossession fees which you are obligated to pay.
