Can you find my car by the VIN if it was stolen or repossessed?
There are certain strict procedures that an automobile repossessor must follow when he is repossessing your car. The repossessor must notify the police that such vehicle is being repossessed, you did before or after the repossession has occurred. In either case, the police should know right away that the vehicle was repossessed. If this is not the case, then the vehicles like to have been stolen.
Why do the rep-omen use guns to gain your car if you are behind on payments?
Repossessors cannot seize the vehicle by threat of lethal force - they can only use them for purposes of self-defense. If they draw a weapon without being in a situation which justifies it, they've committed a felony. Likewise, the owner of the property they're repossessing a vehicle from has the right to prohibit them from entering the property armed.
Car repo's in North Carolina?
Perfectly legal, so long as they follow "peaceful repossession". If your vehicle is being repossessed, you may have some rights. For example, you may prohibit repossessors from carrying arms on your property, but ultimately, if they have an order of repossession for that car, they have a legal right to take possession of the vehicle they are there to repossess. They may not open locked doors or gates, or enter any vehicle other than the one they're repossessing.
What if the co-buyer says they are not going to make any more payments and the vehicle breaks down and need repair?
If the cobuyer is in possession of the vehicle in this scenario, then eventually the lender will put it out for repossession. Once located, the repo agent will secure the vehicle or will have it assessed for the lender to determine if they want it or not, if it is worth repossessing. Either way, if you are the primary on the account, it will negatively affect your credit. It might be better for you to contact the lender and divulge the location of the unit. As a signer on the loan, you have the right to sign a voluntary repossession and surrender the vehicle. In light of the irresponsible behavior of the cosigner, it is the right thing to do.

Depends on the contract you signed and the state that you live in. Some states require a 15 or 20 day Right to Cure letter be sent to the debtor prior to repossession and some states allow the vehicle to be repossessed the day after you miss your payment.
