It's not possible to give a definite answer as it would be the lender's decision alone. However, most lenders are willing to work with the debtor if it is at all possible rather than pursue litigation or perhaps force the debtor into bankruptcy.
Yes. The lender is legally required to sell the vehicle at public auction for as close to the fair market value as is possible. The proceeds of the sale of the vehicle is applied to the loan balance and the borrower is responsible for any deficiency and possibly additional fees.
The lender would have the option of filing suit to recover monies that are still owed.
No
You must leave it ON the dealers property somehow.
Im pretty sure even if you did voluntarily hand it back you'd still have to pay the remaining balance. They won't just tanke back a car and call it good.
In the state of Texas, yes the creditor can follow for the deficiency balance.
Yes, but why would anyone want to do this?
Yes.
What state are you in??? Laws VARY by state.
Yes. The debtor can take either action voluntarily, but that will not relieve the debtor of the original contract agreements. In the case of a vehicle the borrower/debtor would still be responsible for any deficiency between the price the vehicle was sold for and the loan amount. A voluntary foreclosed or the submission of the deed in lieu of foreclosure is a complicated matter and the extent of the debtor's financial responsibility would be stated in the terms of the loan agreement.
Once you sign that paperwork, you agree to relinquish the vehicle to the insurance company as is.
No. When a vehicle is repossessed either voluntarily or by the lender, it must be sold at public auction for the fair market value or as close to that amount as possible. Any deficiency between the sale price and the loan balance will be the responsibility of the primary borrower and/or cosigner.
