not legally their suppose to have police with them to repo a vehicle but they do stuff like that alot of times * No, repossession agents are not accompanied by authorities unless they have a relevin order or other instrument issued by a court of jurisdiction. The repo agent has committed a crime (actually several) and should be reported to the authorities immediately. The agent can also be held liable for any damages incurred by the driver of the car, regardless of the fact that an attempt to repossess the vehicle was in progress.

Does the repo guy have to let you know when he is here when he is taking your vehicle?

The "repo" man does not have to inform you if he is at your residence to repossess your vehicle. Once the vehicle has been repossessed he must call it in to either the local police department or Sheriff department. This will prevent any false stolen car reports. Also, the "repo" man does not have the authority to go into your garage or involve the police in the act of repossessing your vehicle. So, if for some reason the "repo" man does get into contact with you and threatens you by saying that he has called the police, he is lying. Bottom line, just pay your bills and you won't have to worry about the "repo" man.

No one has the right to enter your property to repo a vehicle. I your vehicle is out in the street, then its fair game. If you see the repo man coming but has not hooked up to your vehicle, you legally still have possession of the vehicle. Once the vehicle has made contact with the truck the vehicle belongs to him.


Can repossession happen in the middle of the night?

The repo man will pick up the vehicle anytime and anywhere he can do it while watching out for his personal safety. Repo men have been shot at, cursed at, hit, and everything in-between from the person whose vehicle is being repossesed. I would think that night time would be the safest time for a repo.
