Those who have had a vehicle must be notified, typically within 24 hours, but that may be done by the repossesion company, the actual agents, or the original lender. All are acceptable.

How do you write a voluntary repossession letter?

Simply state in the letter that you wish to surrender the vehicle, list the loan number, the VIN, or any other way to identify the vehicle and the account with the lender. Notify them where the vehicle can be picked up, and where the keys will be located. And, have it there when the agents come to recover it.

In the state of New York, provided there is a legal order for repossession, once the vehicle is located, it may be secured and recovered. The repossession agency has 24 hours to notify the registered owner of the repossession, but they are only required to do so by mail, and may do so to the address of record on the registration.

What do you do if your car got repossessed when it wasnt supposed to?

If it truly was a wrongful repossession, call local law enforcement and report the vehicle stolen. If they notify you that it was repossessed, inform them that it was a wrongful repossession. Next, contact the lender and demand politlely that they notify the repossession agency that the vehicle was wrongfully repossessed. You might even, still politely, suggest some sort of compensation for you inconvience. Also ask for the contact number of the repossession agency. Call them and notify them also of the wrongful repossession. Suggest also to them some sort of compensation for your incovenience. Vehicles that are wrongfully repoed must be returned as soon as possible and in the same condition as when taken. If there is damage, the lender and the repossession agency are liable. If you are not satisfied with how quickly your vehicle is being returned, push the auto theft charges.


How will you know what you still owe the creditor after a repossession?

How do you stop a repossession in process?

Pay the past due amount on the loan or pay the loan in full. In the event you are able to do this, it is a good idea to have the lender contact the repossession agency to cancel the repossession while you remain on hold. If you fail to do this, it could take several hours for them to notify the repossession agency, and your vehicle could still be taken.


How much time does bank have to notify us that they have repossessed your car in New York?

Notification occurs within 24 hours, however this may be satisfied by the lender issuing notification that your vehicle is subject to repossession due to your default on the loan. In many cases, notification is done by next day delivery to the address where the vehicle was recovered (private residences) or to the home of record. In most New York state jurisdictions, it is necessary for repossession agents to notify law enforcement. This is as easy as contacting local dispatch and letting the operator know that a vehicle has been secured not stolen. This can also substitute for debtor notification, especially in situations of antagonistic debtors.

Can a car be repossessed from a military base?

It is possible, and very probable considering that it is a violation of military regulations for any service member to dishonorably indebted. Some repossession agents have special permission to enter military installations from the commanders of those installations for the purposes of repossessing vehicles. In most cases, not that it matters for the answer, the agents must contact the Provost Marshall or MP/SF/SPs and notify them of the vehicle they are recovering; but, this is not always required.


Is it typical for the bank not to notify you of repossession?

They would normally send you statements reminding you that your balance is past due, and the vehicle could be repossessed if the matter isn't settled. The creditor normally won't inform you of when the order for repossession actually is sent out, and you won't normally be informed that your vehicle is being repossessed until the repo man shows up to claim it.
