If you fail to do either, they lender can get permission from the bankruptcy court to repossess the vehicle. In some states, such as Missouri, you may keep the vehicle if you continue to pay on it.
No, once a vehicle is repossessed it is no longer your vehicle. The only way to get it back is to make some sort of arrangement with the financier for you to keep the vehicle.

Can u keep your checking account after filing chapter 13?
This is not a question. The truck could not legally be repossessed after the filing of a bankruptcy. Notify the creditor of the filing, giving the court's location (District of ?) and docket number. If you don't have a lawyer, send it by certified mail, return receipt and by regular mail, and make sure you keep a copy for yourself. If you've gotten a notice of your 341 meeting, send a copy of it to the creditor as well.
Sure...you can not want to keep the house without filing BK too

If it has been discharged (At the end of the Chapter 13 plan), then you will most likely have to work out some type of payment with the lender. You can also consider filing another Chapter 13. (The car would most likely be the only debt)
