Legally NO!
Its NOT a matter of HOW late, just that you ARE late. Read your contract. That should explain when you are in DEFAULT.
It depends on the state, but usually it is only required that the lending institution have the papers. In general, you already know when the loan is in default.
Yes, and many people do object to their vehicles being repossessed, before and after the repossession. Unfortunately, your objection will have little effect. If you are delinquent or in default on your loan, and the vehicle was used to secure the loan, the vehicle will be repossessed. There are few legal options available to you to avoid this aside from paying the loan current.
READ your lease. The lender can repo as long as you are in DEFAULT. As long as there is money owed on a contract, the collateral can be repossessed IF the contract is in default. Subject to some state guidelines.
Read the contract you signed. it likely states that when in DEFAULT, the lender can repo the collateral. Default is when you dont pay a payment as agreed or any other condition of the contract. No rocket science here.
How long you can go before your car is repossessed depends on several things. Generally, as soon as you default on your note, your creditor can "repo" your vehicle. The definition of default may depend on your loan contract, but usually just missing one payment can qualify. It is best to communicate with your creditor before you miss a payment to work out other terms, and avoid having your vehicle taken from you.
Read the terms of the contract. Once the contract is "In Default", the note can be called in and the vehicle can be repossessed. It can be as soon as 1 day past due. But in reality, most banks know that they'll probably loose money on the process so most will try to give you a little extra time.

WE'RE ON OUR WAY!!!!!
Your car can be repossessed if you miss one payment. Not likely they would do that but it is possible.
In Hawaii, creditors can repossess vehicles without court order if the borrower defaults on the loan. However, they must do so without breaching the peace. Borrowers have the right to cure the default before the repossession occurs. Creditors must provide notice before selling the repossessed vehicle.
It means when you can't pay for something , you surrender it before it is repossessed.
