Best Answer

The lender regardless of status (corporation, bank, "buy here, pay here" private seller, etc simply needs to hold a valid lien against the vehicle and have the vehicle recovered by a licensed repossession agency. A few states require the borrower to be notified before a repossession is possible, in most states a vehicle can be recovered as soon as the contract is defaulted upon. Wisconsin is the only state that requires a lender to obtain a replevin order from the court before seizing a vehicle.
