It will be reported stolen.
then they take your car and repo it.
A long time if you hide it well!

He will report it as a stolen vehicle.
I assume you mean from a repo man. It is illegal to hide a car to prevent repossession. In some states criminal charges can be filed against you. In the end they will get the car. The lender does not want to repo the car anymore than you want it repossessed. Both you and the lender loose.Even if you hide the car eventually they will find it. Don't be foolish and try to hide it. Just set down with them and see if you can work out a deal? If not, then just turn the car over to them. This will save you the repossession fees which you are obligated to pay.
According to the repo handbook, any debtor purposely hiding collateral from the bank to defraud them is illegal and you can be arrested when summoned to the court. I am a Repo man, and even if you hid thecar, no matter what eventually you will slip up and we will get the car...
yes they are allowed on your property hide it in the garage if you have one
That act in itself isn't a crime. However, if you tell a repo agent you don't know where the car is, then the repo agent will report the car stolen on behalf of the finance company (the rightful owner of the car).
It isn't unheard of for a repo company to call your friends to try and find out where you and your car might be. Some people try and hide their car from a repo company so that it can not be repossessed.
