I believe the best way to look at this is:

The money your being refunded is an overpayment made for earnings at some time.

If those earnings were pre-petition, so had you had the money it would have been part of the BK assets, then the refund should be. (The only reason the BK didn't have it as asset was because you over estimated a payment...you could have over estimated and had all you earnings withheld...that wouldn't mean you should get it all now and it properly shouldn't have been gone to your creditors from then).

How long after a Chapter 7 discharge does a creditor have to take back a car that you did not reaffirm?

There's no rule. It may not be worth it for the lender to repo or take the vehicle. To be safe, you may want to send the lender a letter, certified return receipt, giving a time, date and place to pick the vehicle up. If the lender does not, be sure to keep the letter and green card to prove the lender abandoned it. Then you will want to get the title. You may have to sue the lender for it.
