Vehicles are put up for repossession in self-help states only after the loan has been defaulted upon. Provided you have made all of your payments, and these payments have been on time per the contract, then no. However, if you have ever been late on a payment, and you fall behind at anytime, the contract in most cases has been defaulted, and repossession may proceed. That a lender does not repossess every time a borrower falls behind is a testament to two things: one, it is an expensive and complicated process to repossess a vehicle; and two, they understand that people fall behind and are willing to allow people to pay current. Their interest afterall is the contract. They do not really want your vehicle; they want the payment.

If you're in California and both of your names are on the car you both have a say so in what happens to it. One may want to give the other half the blue book value or you may agree to give it to your wife in the divorce settlement. Whichever the case one must consult the other before they reposses, sell, junk, etc., the car.
