Contact your state DMV and ask them what them requirements are for reinstating your DL. You may have to contact the LENDER to obtain the plates. You have several options you can try to get the plates back from the repo co....if they refuse to give them to you you can go to the police and report the plates as stolen and they will give you a form to take to DMV. Or you can report them as lost to dmv and go from there.Or contact the bank and see if you can get a letter stating they have the plates because in some states the plates stay with the vehicle in a repo.You are going to have to pay a good sized fee to DMV to get your DL reinstated.Good luck!! You can email the National Finance Adjusters and ask them if your state requires the plates to stay with the vehicle or with the debtor. Their email is homeoffice@nfa.org Why involve other organisations to solve a two party problem?? Call your DMV,read your driver handbook,ect. and find out if your state requires the plates to remain with the vehicle. IF it does, then your DL was suspended for another reason that you cant/will never figure out. IF it does not, then the lender needs to return your plates and/or you neeed an attorney.

Doubt your license will be suspended his might, but you run a risk of losing your plates and any plates in your name, along with fines etc. This is a state specific thing.
