I am assuming that the repossession happened 6 1/2 yrs ago. If that is the case then more than likely a third party collection agency is trying to collect the remaining balance after the vehicle was sold at auction. You need to check the statute of limitations in your state. Example in Texas it is 7 yrs , if you made a payment of 1 cent the debt would be valid and the statute would be reset.

Do you still owe on a repossession from 10 years ago?

Yes, you may still owe on a repossession from 10 years ago if the debt was not settled or discharged. Typically, creditors can pursue the remaining balance after a repossession, which is known as a deficiency balance. However, the ability to collect on that debt may vary based on state laws and the statute of limitations, which could limit the time a creditor has to pursue collection. It's advisable to check your credit report and consult with a financial advisor or attorney for specific guidance.
