How do you know if your lender has committed a breach of peace during a vehicle repossession?
Repossessors don't have real, "Power" as, Bounty Hunters. So to compensate, They do alot of, Huffing & Puffing. Scare & Intimidation are pretty much all they have. If they tell you, "Get out of the vehicle, I'm taking it!" That's, a "Breach of Peace." If they walk into your House, Garage etc. Uninvited, That's a, " Breach of
Peace." As a rule of thumb, anything other than a peaceful repossession, Is a,
You guessed it, "Breach of Peace." And keep in mind, this is taken very seriously.
This is when it turns from a civil to a criminal situation. If your neighbor calls the
Police, thats a, "Breach of Peace" So always remember that you have Rights and so does the Finance Company. You'll know when that Repo Guy starts to look nervous, The Repo is in jeopardy. If you tell them to get off of your property, they have to. Laws vary from State to State. Know Your Rights!
