No. You would not be arrested for a civil dispute.

If the finance company has exhausted all means to locate and reposess the vehicle they would turn this over to their legal department who would petition the court in your jurisdiction for a civil suit to recover the amount owed....eventually a judgment could be issued forcing you to pay the amount owed. A civil judgment also shows up on your credit report as a negative type deal.

Can you return a car bought on a personal loan when you were told it was on finance?

Have the car voluntarily repossessed. Using this option means that you voluntarily return the car to the finance loan company if you are too far behind on your payments and can't recover. If you decide to return the car, the finance company may pick up the vehicle or it may require that you return the car to its location.
