No, the vehicle will be sold at auction and after expenses are paid, any money left will be applied to the loan amount. You will still be responsible for the remaining amount of the loan. If you don't pay off the remaining amount of the loan, the debt will be turned in to a collection agency and possibly court action will be initiated.

Can you be sued for a charged off credit debt by the original creditor?
Yes.
Can a collection agency garnish wages for a debt for repossession after 9 years?
They are pushing your buttons. The original company has probably written the debt off and it is possibly off of your credit report. Do not pay them one red cent, or they will be able to resurrect the debt.
Can a credit card company still continue to charge interest if the debt has been charged off?
Yes, a "charge off" does not indicate that the debt is no longer valid. The creditor has several options on how to collect monies owed after the account has been charged off.
Should you file bankruptcy if most of your debt has been charged off?
Filing bankruptcyI may be wrong on this, but my understanding is that "charged off" simply means the creditor has written the debt off (as in written it off as a loss on their taxes, or turned it into their insurance company as a bad debt, etc.) but in no way affects the collectability of the debt. I suspect if they later collect on a charged off debt, they have to claim the money they receive as income on their taxes since they wrote it off earlier. I may be wrong about this though... I definitely don't think that "charged off" means "forgiven," though. Please note that nothing in this posting or in any other posting constitutes legal advice; this is simply my understanding of the facts, which I do not warrant, and I am not suggesting any course of action or inaction to any person.

Yes.
After a debt has been charged off can a third party start collection on the debt 2 years after the debt was charged off?
Yes, because all that charged off debt is just charged off by the original lender, not for the entire world. They will sell it for some amount of money to collections agencies in orde to get something and write off the balance of the debt on their taxes as a loss which you have to in turn enter charged off debt as income unless you pay it back. The collection agency starts the process all over and the seven years starts all over too, to infinity and beyond...It never goes away unless it is legally disccharged off through cp 13 or 7 bankruptcy unless is a student loan, federal IRS debt, child support, judgment, etc...
