You shouldn't have to, if it's financed they might want you to reaffirm but even that would be unusual, as long as you pay, they won't repo it. If not your exemptions can be used to cover enough of it to prevent a forced sale.

What if you hadn't paid in over eight months on your car can you file bankruptcy and keep my car?

Not likely. You will still be required to surrender the vehicle.


I am going into a bankruptcy in app 1 month the bank wants to reposses the car if I surrender the car before the bankruptcy is filed will it show up as a repo or go under the bankruptcy?

It will show up as both. If the bank auctions off the car, they may come after you for a deficiency judgment. Any chance of them coming after you would be taken care of in the bankruptcy.


What if in bankruptcy you ask to keep your car and then can't pay it?

The car will be repossessed, unless you surrender it. If you owe more than the car is worth, the lender will not likely want to accept a surrender unless you can pay the balance due on the loan. Your state may not allow creditors to go after loan balances if they repossess a vehicle. Consult a local bankruptcy or consumer debt attorney.


Do you need to renew the registration if you are planning to voluntarily surrender the vehicle?

I would surrender the car before the registration is due. Once you surrender the car, the car will go to auction and sold for the highest bid. You will then need to either pay the deficit to the finance company or file for bankruptcy protection to elimiate the debt. NOT if you turn it in B4 its due.


Can a dealer sell you a car if you are in bankruptcy?

If you are in the process of a bankruptcy, it is not likely that you would be able to secure a loan. If you are paying cash, and the court learns of the sizable asset, your bankruptcy may be vacated, or you may be required to surrender the vehicle. If the bankruptcy is resolved, there is nothing other than the dealer's and lender's personal judgments that would stop them from selling the car to you.


You kept making car payments after discharged in chapter 7 if you stop paying and don't surrender the car can the lender go and undo your bankruptcy?

No. But, the vehicle will become a repossession if payments are not made.


If you have a car loan included in a bankruptcy do you have to continue making payments?

If the vehicle is protected by the state or federal bankruptcy exemption, you can try to reaffirm the loan agreement with the lender. If that's not possible you will be required to surrender the vehicle and will be probably be held responsible for any deficiency and applicable fees after the car is resold.


Will a bank repossess a car from co signer if primary goes bankrupt?

Only if the primary has said s/he will surrender the property in the bankruptcy and/or if the cosigner does not make the payments due.


Even if you are current with your car payments should you give back my automobile during chapter 13 bankruptcy?

The simple answer is no. If you are current on your car note, then this is not the issue that lead to the bankruptcy. That you are paying it current may have contributed to your financial situation, but on the surface it is not a reason to surrender the vehicle. Either do not list it or reaffirm it with the lender.


What if a car as not been pick up after surrendering it in bankruptcy 4 months ago what should I do?

You have not surrendered it just because you said in your bankruptcy Statement of Intention that you were going to surrender it. Surrender means turning the vehicle over to the creditor or its agent. Call the creditor or its lawyer and ask what they want you to do. Usually they will have you drive the car to a place that will accept the vehicle and the keys. Make sure to remove the license plates - at the place you bring the car to, not before - and all personal property from the vehicle.
