The car will be sold. You are then responsible for the difference in what it sells for and the balance on the loan. You credit is then also ruined for seven years.

AnswerI do repos. The creditor will sell the car and sue you for the difference and they will not try to get the most out of it. however in order to get a judgment on you they first have to have you served by a sherriff to court. but if you do not answer the door you can't be served. and if you get served the creditor must not breach the peace and has to send you a certified letter to your last known address giving you 10 days to recover your vehicle and or pick up your personals. if they do not then it is concidered an illegal repocession. and can be thrown out of court. this has worked for several debtors i know of after repo.
