yes you have to pay the difference or you could file for bankruptcy, with a repo involved it sounds like your having money problems so that could be a way out of it a chapter 13 would allow you to be free and clear from the debt of property repoed or from an extra payment you could do without. trust me chapter 13 saved me from loosing my house when i lost two vehicles and stoped the wage garnishments for what i was left to pay on my repoed vehicles. hope this helps.

Look at it from the lenders viewpoint. They can repo a car with 1500.00 owed that might sell for 2500.00 from you. OR, they can repo a car from Joe Doe with 35000.00 owed that might sell for 23000.00. Which would you repo first? The one you lose money(Joe Doe) on oe the one you break even on (you)??

What is the difference between voluntary repossession and regular repossession and the pros and cons with it?

Neither are good. Call the lender and work something out. a repo is a repo by any standard ,they will sell the unit and go after you for the deficiency no matter what.it will be on your credit as a repo. You will not have to pay the towing and fees associated with the repo. That is the only difference.

Are you still going to have to pay the balance if they repossess your car?

You will pay the difference in what they sell the car for and the balance that is owed on the note. You may also pay the repo fees. Your credit will be ruined for 7 years. Contact the lender ASAP and work this out. They do not want to repo your car and I am sure you do not want to loose it. Actually they have to sue you first to garnish your wages but why let the facts get in the way.
