Contact the lender, in person if possible. Have a written estimate of the damage done by the repossession company. See what the lender has to say about the damage to their vehicle, which until you pay off the loan they jointly own with you. Communicate with them and I am sure this can be worked out. Remember this would never have happened if you had not missed a payment. So keep that in mind. They still should not have damaged your car, but things happen.

You can start to worry about repossession of your vehicle as soon as you miss your payment.

If you keep in touch with the lender of your car, you have a better chance of not loosing your vehicle right away.


If you make one payment when payments are behind can this stop the repossession?

Check your loan contract, but in most cases (99.99%) if the payment does not represent the total past due amount, or if you do not have arrangements with the lender setting asside repossession actions in lieu of payment arrangements, no; one payment toward a past due balance will not stop or delay repossession of the vehicle.
