you should contact the lien holder and advise them of your situation. you might be able to get an extension for a few months and maybe during this time you have remedied your situation. if you simplycant affordthe car, we recommend you call and let them know. its always best to be in contant with them and voluntarily give up the car than to wait and them take it.

No. In my experience and from what I've read, it is not wise to lease a car from someone with a loan. They can still be held responsible for the car if anything happens to it.

How do you record Obligations under capital lease contracts?

When you book the capital lease, record the asset at its fair market value or the present value of minimum lease payments, whichever is less. The capital lease obligation is recorded at the same amount. Minimum lease payments include all rental payments required during the term of the lease plus any residual value guaranteed by the lessee. They also include any payment the lessee must make for not renewing or extending the lease, including a requirement to purchase the asset. They do not include any guarantee of the lessor's debt by the lessee, contingent rentals, or any penalty for which the term of the lease has been extended. They also do not include the portion of the rent payments which represent executory costs, such as insurance, taxes, and maintenance, and any related profit. Sources: SFAS No. 13; RIA Checkpoint
