if behind on payments how long before repossesion procedure can begin In Washington state there are no laws governing repo companies - they have to only take the vehicle they are after in a peacful manner - meaning even if you are going bezerk on them - they can only defend them and not assult you - also meaning they can't start the fight - they can block you in hook up your car and ask you to give the keys and exit the vehicle - they can charge you what ever fees they want and also they have to report the repo to the local law enforcement -

What are your rights when it comes to a car that just has a payment for half of the remainder owed and the private party it was being bought from has repossessed it for personal reason?
If the repossession occurred in a state that does not permit self-help repossession, report the car stolen; it cannot be legally repossessed. Louisiana and Wisconsin are two of these states. If you can show legal possession of the vehicle, and on time payment, report the car stolen. It cannot be legally repossessed in any state unless the debt is delinquent. If you do not wish to involve LEO's immediately, contact the private party who "repossessed" the vehicle and explain that if it is not returned within a reasonable amount of time, that you will report the vehicle stolen and give his name as the party responsible. There is no legal "personal reason" for repossessing a vehicle.
