They can sue you and garnish your wages, your bank accounts, your state tax return, and the court could order you to liquidate real property to satisfy the judgment.

If you are two months behind on a payment can your car be repossed?

First off it is not your car. The car belongs to the lender until you pay for it. Legally if you miss 1 payment you are delinquent and they can start repossession proceedings on their vehicle.


When can a car be legally repossed?

After 60 days on non-payment. I always reccommend to do return the vehicle to the lender yourself. It looks better on your credit as a self repossesion. Then once the vehicle is auctioned off and sold, you will be left with a remaining balance. Save at least .10 cents on the dollar or 30% of the balance in a savings account. Once this is saved, call the creditor/lender and negotiate a settlement. Get the agreed amount in writing that same day before making your final payment. Then request another letter stating the account is now paid in full - instead of settled for less. Good luck!

If a vehicle was surrendered in bankruptcy but the lender will not pick it up can the lender be removed from the title?

The lender is not required to take possession of the vehicle and can let the lien stand until the debt is paid. In addition, the lender can sue the borrower/debtor for the entire balance of the loan plus applicable legal fees, etc. rather than go through the reposssession and selling of the vehicle. As long as the lender is a lien holder the vehicle cannot be traded, sold nor transferred to another party.
