Can you go to jail if you hide your car from the repo man in Wisconsin?
It is possible; Wisconsin is a self-help repossession state. Hiding the vehicle is called hindering repossession and is comparable to auto theft. When you purchase a car by loan, you do not technically own the car outright. You own it cooperatively with the loan provider. When you default on your loan, you give up the rights you had to the vehicle, and via lien law, the loan provider now owns the vehicle. Therefore it is not yours to hide.

Can the bank send someone to your house if you have not paid your car note and tell you that you could go to jail?
If you are delinquent on your car note, and the lender has ordered repossession of the car, a repossession agent may come to your home or place of work and demand you surrender the vehicle. If you refuse, or attempt to hide the vehicle, you could, in some states be held criminally liable. The lender could pursue criminal charges against you for hindering their efforts to recover their property. You see, when you contract to make payments on a car, you do not own it, the lender does. You are in essence paying to use the car until the loan is paid in full.
