Scenarios:
1. If you sold the car for cash, and the buyer paid you in full, you have nothing to repossess.
2. If you signed the title (aka pink slip) and the buyer had their name listed as Registered Owner, you no longer own the car - nothing to repossess.
3. If you sold the car and did NOT sign the title, and allowed the buyer to make monthly payments to you, AND the buyer has defaulted on making payments for some specified time, you MIGHT have some rights in regards to respossessing the vehicle.
4. If no written agreement was made (and properly signed) at the time of sale specifically stating the monthly payment arrangements - in other words a handshake deal - you MAY not have any recourse.
Before proceeding, please consult legal help on this matter - Don't take what you may think is the law into your own hands.
