A lien means that money is owed on your vehicle. If there is no more money owed, then there is no longer a lien, and the vehicle cannot be repossessed.

What allows a bank to repossess someones car?

Things may differ state to state, but in MI the lien holder basically owns the vehicle. I have the title to my truck, but it's got a big stamp on it from the credit union. The right to repossess the vehicle is in the paperwork that was signed at the closing of the loan, which also lists the vehicle as collateral for the money that was borrowed. If you can't pay the money back they have the right to take the vehicle because it's worth roughly the same amount.

Can a bank suspend your license or registration for non payment on a truck?

Your driver's license is an instrument issued to you individually by your state government. Your bank has no bearing in its status. What your bank has is a lien to your vehicle which essentially means that upon your failure to pay, they have the right to repossess the vehicle and sell it to recover the money that they are owed. So while your registration won't be suspended, your bank may send a tow truck to repossess your vehicle.

From what you describe it has no legal grounds on which to repossess your vehicle unless you missed some provision in the contract that has been breached. You may need to obtain a release of the lien from the lien holder to clear the title. You should try to contact the consumer division of your state attorney general for more information. If possible, you should get some advice from an attorney and act as soon as possible.
