Simple: call him on the telephone and demand that he bring your car back. When he declines your peaceful invitation (which he no doubt will) you will telephone the police and report your car stolen. Then you will give them the name, number, and address of the man who stole your car.

Can you legally repossess your car with a lien on the title?
That is the only way you can repossess a vehicle. Repossession comes under the UCC which grants a lienholder the right to repossess but only if they have perfected their lien by filing it on the title. One caveate is in most states the lienholder can not repossess a vehicle that is under a mechanic's lien without first paying that lien.

If a car that is being repossessed is at a residence of someone else and a vehicle is behind the car to be repossessed can they move it lawfully?
No. Absolutely not. If they enter a vehicle they do not have an order of repossession on, they've committed a crime. They may enter the vehicle they are there to repossess, and only the vehicle they are there to repossess.

No. Only the lender can "repossess" a vehicle. You need to keep making the payments to protect your own credit. It is likely you would need to bring a court action, prove you are making the payments and petition the court to order a transfer of title.

You bartered your car on Craigslist for some work to be done around your house It was never done Can you repo the car?
The only way you could repossess the vehicle legally is if you maintained a lien on the title or if the title remained in your name--and in most states the title was perfected (registered with the state DMV).Any attempt to take the vehicle back otherwise could result in criminal charges.Additionally, specific laws must be followed in most states to repossess property. Failing to do so often results in a wrongful repossession and return of the property to the person from whom it was repossessed. Substantial fines and criminal charges can be placed against those who wrongfully repossess.
How long will Title Max wait to repossess a vehicle?
Title loan companies are notoriously low in patience. Title Max is one of the least patient. The Title Max paper I ran in the past was as new as one week past due. Sadly, in most states, title loans are rarely larger than a couple thousand dollars, and the vehicle can only be sold no more than the ballance owed. Good for car buyers, bad for those who secure title loans.
