a lender can do as he/she pleases with the vehicle after 31 days...in the state of Alabama
"YOU" dont, the debtor does. call the lender.
If it has been repossessed the lender will usually stop all collection activities until the vehicle is disposed of through sale. It is unusual but the lender could decide to keep the vehicle but should they do that than they waive their right to a deficiency.
No
YES,, CALL the lender and find out HOW MUCH it will cost to do so.

Depending on who the lender is and how they dispose of repos, it will go to the repo cos. storage lot and then to the auction.
The laws for all US states are much the same. In MO. when a vehicle is repossessed by the lender due to a default in the terms of the contract the lender is required to sell the vehicle at public auction for the amount closests to its assessed value.

Not without permission of the lender. A vehicle cannot be sold without a clear title of ownership. The lender is named on the title of a vehicle as the "lienholder" until the vehicle is paid for or otherwise released by the lienholder.
