Yes and No.

By "they", I'm guessing you mean whoever technically owns the car that you are making payments on, and is most often a bank/credit union. If you owe the dealership for a repair bill or something, it is separate from your car payment, and would most likely have no impact on your lease, therefore not be repossessed.

On the other hand, if you owe money because you didn't pay your insurance (in a State where insurance on a financed vehicle is required by law), then the lender will furnish insurance from a company they choose and add the cost of each month's insurance payment you missed, plus any months adding up to 6-months to a year right to your loan including interest and all. So while you could go a couple months paying the same amount you've been for the car, not paying the extra $100-$200 a month on the same bill will quickly get them to send the repo guy.

Yes. Once the lending agreement is in default the lender may take whatever action they choose in recovering the monies owed.

The lender can accept the payment, still repossess the vehicle or pursue litigation.

YES, IF YOU CLAIM NOT TO KNOW WHERE IT IS. If you call the bank and say I dont know where the car is its gone, they are going to tell you to report it stolen. If you stop making payments on it then they will repossess, if there is no car to repossess then you are still responsible to pay the monthly payment car or no car If you stop paying and there is no car to repossess then they at that point can take legal action against you. I dont know if its reported stolen but take my word for it you will pay somehow.

Can the lender repossess your car if you didn't make the payments because they never sent a payment book?

They can repossess your car if you defaulted on the loan. You knew you owed the money and you knew you didn't receive a payment book. It was your obligation to contact the lender to arrange to make your payments. You should seek the advice of an attorney who may be able to negotiate with the lender on your behalf. Not making your payments for your debt on such a technicality is really dangerous.
