Unusual question.

In multiple years in the industry, I never ran into this. Closest to it was the debtor who bought a Denver Boot and installed on the vehicle. The agent in that case was also a locksmith who popped the lock and took the car anyway.


The short of it is, provided the agent doesn't enter a private structure without the owner's permission, damage property, or breach the peace, he can take what steps are necessary to recover the vehicle.

They repo your car and sell it at auction or sometimes to a good buddy. What they sell it for is deducted from your debt but they add back the cost of the repo and selling at auction. Now - If they think the amount still owed is worth going after you and your assets -then they can go to court for a judgement. If you can't hang on to it ask them to take it back before they spend the money to repo it.

Can a repo company take your car from behind a locked gate in California?

No one has the right to enter your property to repo a vehicle. I your vehicle is out in the street, then its fair game. If you see the repo man coming but has not hooked up to your vehicle, you legally still have possession of the vehicle. Once the vehicle has made contact with the truck the vehicle belongs to him.
