Bad idea!! This is called a voluntary repossession. Your credit will be ruined for 7 years, and you will still be responsible for the difference in what the bank sells the car for and the balance on the note. Go to the bank and sit down and work out new payments. Sell the car yourself and borrow the difference if you are upside-down on the loan. Have someone possibly take over the payments. Do whatever is necessary to avoid a repossession.

Can you willingly repossess a car?
Unless you are a creditor, I assume you mean can you surrender a car to the lender in a voluntary repossession. If the creditor will do it, you can. Obviously it will depend on the mileage and condition of the car, but these days it is complicated by the state of the economy, so not likely. You can surrender the vehicle in a Chapter 7, where the creditor has no choice.
Can the bank send someone to your house if you have not paid your car note and tell you that you could go to jail?
If you are delinquent on your car note, and the lender has ordered repossession of the car, a repossession agent may come to your home or place of work and demand you surrender the vehicle. If you refuse, or attempt to hide the vehicle, you could, in some states be held criminally liable. The lender could pursue criminal charges against you for hindering their efforts to recover their property. You see, when you contract to make payments on a car, you do not own it, the lender does. You are in essence paying to use the car until the loan is paid in full.

You don't. You voluntarily surrender the vehicle to the lender, or at least offer the ooprtunity for the lender to secure it.

According to the contract you signed when you bought the car, you should surrender it any time you are in default. Sooo, what difference does a day, a few days or a month make?
