Can you go to jail if you keep a repossessed car in a different state?

As the owner of a "tote the note" used car lot for 20 years I know of no effective way of prosecuting "skips". People occasionally move to other states with mortgaged autos and if there is statute forbidding it, I am not aware of it. Generally, the only remedy for the lienholder is to repossess the vehicle.

If you hold the title and its in your name can your vehicle still be repossessed?
Well, if the title lists no lienholders, it cannot be repossessed. If it lists one, it would be best to surrender it or don't keep anything in it of value. Yes. Even if the lien is not recorded on the title, it hass probably still been filed with the state.
How long can they keep you in jail when there has been a governors warrant issued?
A Governor's Warrant is also known as a Writ of Extradition. Once the state that wants you has indicated that they will extradite you, the holding state will keep you in jail until the formal legal process of extradition has been accomplished. This is not exactly a speedy process and if you are still in jail, awaiting extradtion, after 90 days I would suggest filing a Writ of Habeus Corpus.
How far away can they take your repossessed car?
They can sell the vehicle anywhere it is 'commercially reasonable". MOST lenders try to keep the vehicles in the same state they are repoed in. You should contact a LOCAL attorney for state/case specific advice.
