Can the police make you tell the repo man where your car is?

Answer 1

Yes, he can get it anywhere. No he cannot get it" anywhere".The repo men want you to think that.They can come on your property but they cannot damage your property or "cause a breach of the peace".Now this doesn't mean you have to let them, you can call the police etc.Calling the police is usually a good idea because then you have impartial witnesses.And no the cops won't arrest you. YES, IT CAN BE REPO'D anywhere,as long as it is not locked in. Yes and you don't get caught trespassing...... NO!!!!, A repo man cannot legally enter gated property to take a vehicle without the owners concent, in California. If I come out to a call like this I will arrest you for trespass if the owner wishes to press charges.

Answer 2

Yes. They consider your item of repossession 'their property' and if it is setting on your property, they will tresspass to get what belongs to them (or the bank). A repossession agent may not take any action which constitutes a breach of peace as defined under the laws of the state. They may not enter a garage locked or unlocked to remove a vehicle. They may not remove a lock or in anyway damage same if it is on the gate of residential/private property. They may enter a condo or apartment security gate if it is done properly and does not constitute a hazard or impediment to other tenants. They may not ask another tenant to allow them entrance to take possession of the vehicle. These laws do not apply if the repossession agent has a replevin or other such order issued by the court. If a consumer believes his or her rights have been violated pertaining to such issues, they should file a complaint with the justice department of the state attorney general's office.

Answer 3

Your vehicle can be repossessed wherever it's found. If you want to keep it, either pay the bills or find a really good hiding space for the car. Yes, the repo man can take your car while you are at work and anywhere else, except a church lot. There may be other private lots that may not be able to access but I'm not for sure.

Answer 4

No, at this point it you no longer have a legal claim to the title, if you don't pay for it you didn't buy it. Like going into a grocery store and throwing a nickel on the counter and you start eating a snickers, they will rip it out of your hands. Yeah, you threw a nickel at them but they can't give you a nickel's worth of snickers and put the rest back on the shelf. Same with a car, you can't make a few payments and then say ok, it's mine, no more payments.

Answer 5

Yes a repo man can call your job.
