Depending on the laws of the state you live in, you will have to pay the following charges:
1. The payments you're past due.
2. The repossession fee charged by the lender or dealership (if a buy here pay here).
3. The tow charge.
Depending on the flexibility of the lender or dealership that repo'ed your vehicle, you may be able to set up some kind of additional payment plan or try moving a payment or two to the end of your current loan.
Good Luck!
When you fail to pay for something that is security for the loan.
in the process of repossession?
Yes, usually at an auction.
Depends on the state you live in and their repossession laws. If you are smart you will return the car if you are unable to pay for it. The car belongs to the bank until it is payed for.
Yes you do. You can file for bankruptcy and may be afforded some consolation, but by law you are responsible for the difference between what was owed and what the lender was able to wholesale the car for.
Unless you have a payment plan figures out with your loan company(I.E. i can pay 100 this month instead of 200) they will usually wait 90 days to proceed with the repossion process.
The laws of the state the vehicle is in.
The state the borrower lives in.
No. But any debt that is forgiven is taxable as income.
It appears they are trying to help you with the 5 days part. READ the lease agreement for more info on when the lease is in DEFAULT.
If it was a divorce or other court order, it has nothing to do with bankruptcy, but you can be held in contempt after notice and a hearing. If your only income is from a protected source (child support, welfare, Social Security, etc.). you cannot be ordered to pay, as a rule. State laws vary, so check with local debt collection lawyer.
The spouse is not responsible and should not have this on her credit. But the estate of the deceased will still be responsible for the debt.
