No you can not "legally" hide a vehcile being sought for repossession. In most states you can be charged with a felony for hiding one.
A misprision of a felony is the concealment of a felony from the authorities, but without actually giving any degree of active support to its commission (i.e.: the person is not considered an accomplice to the crime). For example: Person 'A' robs a bank and kills a teller. He goes to Person'B's home and asks to hide out and tells Person 'B' that they just robbed bank. Person 'B' does nothing, but continues to hide the bank robber anyway. Person'B' has committed a Misprision of a Felony.

Employers do not have to give the location of an employee but they can choose to do so if they wish. It is difficult to hide when you are being sought after by creditors who wish to serve you.
You might be successful for a little while. But, if there's a warrant out for you, almost EVERYBODY eventually gets caught sooner or later.
Of course, you can be charged with any felony you commit, but I think you're asking if it is a felony to hide the car from the repossession agent. Technically, no. But, if you are obviously hiding it and the lender gets really PO'd, he can go to court and have a writ of replevna issued. Then the sheriff will come along with the repo man and they will leave with the car - or with you. The correct answer is: it not a felony to hide a car from creditors who are trying to reposses......period.This is a civil matter not a criminal matter.The writ is issued in rare cases.

if its not yours and you keep it it is stealing. stealing a car is grand theft auto. yes, you will go to jail for it. it is a felony.
Yes, it is a crime, if the 'secured party' (the party who orders the repossession) has demanded the car be handed over to them, then it is a crime to conceal it. You do NOT have to have been informed of anything by the repossession agent themselves. The only notification is that the secured party wants the car back. If you were to conceal the car in these circumstances, then under the Texas Penal Code, you would be 'Hindering Secured Creditors' (Section 32.33). If the car is worth less than $1500, it is a misdemeanor of varying degrees. If the car is worth $1500 or more, then it is a felony, of increasing severity for higher values.

Employers do hire Autistic people, however normally when they do they don't realize that the person is Autistic. There is a lot of prejudice against Autistic people so even in areas where there are discrimination laws in place Autistic people often cannot find work, Autistic people normally have to hide their Autism from employers to avoid facing discrimination.
