Depends on what state you are in. Call a local attorney for state specific advice.


If the loan on your car was charged off then the lender has written it off as a loss but not repoed it. do you still owe the loan?

Yes. The statute of limitations governs how long you remain liable, in the sense that once the statute has expired, a suit by the creditor will be dismissed if the debtor raises the statute of limitations as a defense. In general, the statute of limitations begins to run when you default on the note or vehicle installment sales contract, not when the car is repossessed. Repossession is one remedy available to a creditor who has a security interest, but it is not the only one. Very few notes limit a creditor to a single remedy. In general, the creditor can also bring a suit against you for the balance owed regardless of whether or not the collateral is repossessed. In most states, the statute of limitations will begin to run when you missed enough payments to meet the definition of "default" specified in the contract or note. Relying on the statute of limitations to avoid a debt has its risks. The statute may be "tolled" by a variety of acts. Leaving the state where the debt was contracted, for example, often stops the clock until you return. In many states, making a partial payment sets the clock back to 0, so the limitations period begins to run from the date of the last payment. In some states, merely making a promise to make a payment, even orally, is enough to re-start the limitations period. Technically, when the statute of limitations expires, it does not wipe out the debt, it only prevents the creditor from bringing suit to enforce his/her rights. In theory, he/she or an assignee of the original creditor can continue to dun you forever, even if they can't take you to court.
