You must not have a garage. There are a number of ways, I wouldn't recommend any of them. It is illegal in most states, usually called something along the lines of "Hindering a Secured Creditor." In Texas it is a felony, I'm sure most states have similar penalties. Best thing to do is give it up when they knock on your door, they'll usually be nice and let you get your belongings. You can hide it for as long as you want but why keep a car you can't drive because you're hiding it? Also, the finance company will eventually sue you for the amount owed and get the car too, so you will be out a car and a lot of money.

Can the repo man bring the police to your work to get the car if you hide the car?

It isn't your car. If you defaulted on the loan, you are no longer the owner. The repo man can take numerous steps to re-claim the property up to seeking law enforcement assistance. He is the agent of the owner and reclaiming the owner's property is how he gets paid.


What itf you hide a car?

I assume you mean from a repo man. It is illegal to hide a car to prevent repossession. In some states criminal charges can be filed against you. In the end they will get the car. The lender does not want to repo the car anymore than you want it repossessed. Both you and the lender loose.Even if you hide the car eventually they will find it. Don't be foolish and try to hide it. Just set down with them and see if you can work out a deal? If not, then just turn the car over to them. This will save you the repossession fees which you are obligated to pay.
