You will do what is called a Voluntary Reposession. Basically what this means is you have given the car back to the lending company on your own free will, HOWEVER, you are still liable to pay for the vehilce. Most places will attempt to sell the car for what the book value is, if you have negative equity (owe for than its worth) and they are unable to sell it for what you owe you may still have to pay the balance even after the car has been sold. Of course the biggest down fall to this is it still gets marked on your credit report as a default and reposession.

Depends on how much the car has sunk in value between when you took possession of it and when you returned it. Probably the company will want some money more on top of having the car back. It's far better to talk to the bank or the dealer though rather than waiting until it gets repossessed.

What could happen to a homeowner who is bipolar and receiving social security disability income that lives in West Virginia if she can no longer afford to pay her credit card debts?

Unfortunately she could lose her home if the Credit Card Co., decides to go after her for full payment which they can do. If she is even just making the minimum payment that is basically just paying off the high interest and not the total debt. See if she can't go to the bank and use her home as collateral to pay off the Credit Card Co. by "Line of Credit" which has a low interest rate.
