If you sent a payment to the bank clearly noted for a car loan but they deposited it in your account instead and then your car was repossessed can you sue the bank?

It depends. What was the result of that error being made? Was your vehicle repossessed because the payment went to the wrong account? As far as "legally filing a lawsuit" you can do that to anyone for anything. Most banks will rectify the mistake by correcting the routing of that deposit and clearing the late fee if they see that the payment was received on or before the due date. However, they can tell if it was an honest error or if you are trying to slip one by on them.
