Many people dont know this but if your car is getting repoed and you see it happening you need to go up to the guy that is repoing your car and tell him that you cant pay for the repo/tow and by law they need to put down your car.
Hope it helps
-I hate to disagree with the above answer, but I own a repossession company that operates in WA, ID, and OR. This would never stop us. The reason is that we are hired by the lender, they will pay for the repossession. The first answer may be refering to a stay te that I do not operate in, or some subtle point of law that I'm unfamiliar with. The best advice is to call you lender and try to work out how you can get your car back. If you cannot work with them try contacting a company called LEAP financing, they finance cars that are in repo.
Then you should pay your bills.
If a person's car gets repoed, the bank can report it on their CR in any state. When they redeem it doesnt matter, its the fact that it got repoed that gets reported.
No. Who ever holds the note gets to decide how the vehicle is resold.
Even if you could you would still owe the bank the money they paid for the car.
it's still repoed it just takes a little longer
No As far as finance company is concerned the car came with wheels, it has wheels on it when repoed. Done deal.
You get a BIG black mark on your CR and future loans will be at a higher than normal interest rate and/or a higher DP. PLUS, you will still have to pay the remaining balance on the repoed car. Do your best to SELL the car before repotime.
NO.
THE REPO COMPANY IS LIABLE FOR THE COLLATERAL, CARE CUSTADY AND CONTROL. THE CLAIM WILL BE INVESTIGATIGED, YOU WILL BE INVESTIGATIED. AND IF ITS A LIGIT CLAIM ITS COVERED UNDER THIER GARAGE KEEPERS INS.
the possible thing that could happen is your car gets repoed and your credit goes down the toilet for that mistake
wife gets the car in the divorce** she may have gotten the car but YOU got the responsibility of paying whats owed. "Getting the car in a divorce" is a clever ploy by attorneys to placate all parties, BUT, that doesnt change the LEGAL part of a contract. YOU sign, YOU pay.
Then tell the Repossession agents where it is and who has it.
