They will try to collect the balance themselves or sell it to a collection agency or seek a judgment thru the courts.

AnswerIt's called a deficiency. Google it and you can read more about the specifics and local laws that apply in your area. AnswerGenerally, they usually try and get you to come in and pay it off. If they can't, then they usually either proceed with legal action or charge it off. If they take legal action, you may lose and owe attn'y fees as well. In the end, if found responsible, you will have a judgment placed on you and they can garnish wages, tax refunds or any income you receive. A judge could also order you to sell other property to pay it off (in extreme cases). Bottom line, it's always just easier to pay off the loan.

Can a lender charge you interest in Illinois on the remaining balance of a car repossessed?

The lender can charge you interest on the LOAN, as long as it is not charged off. Once the loan is charged off, the account is essentially closed. It is at this point that they will begin legal proceedings and the big charges are added to the balance: court costs, legal fees, collections costs. And these do not stop mounting after the judgment is granted. It just keeps going.
