Is it legal for them to take a car seat in a repossession?

Answer 1

Legally speaking, if the car seat is permanently installed in the vehicle and considered part of the car's fixtures, then yes, they can take it during a repossession. However, if it's a removable car seat that belongs to the owner and not permanently attached to the vehicle, they shouldn't take it. So, buckle up that car seat tight or take it with you when you say goodbye to your wheels!

Answer 2

well if you would of paid your bills on time it wouldn't of happend but yea its legal wat ever is in the car stays in the car

I do not know what "State" the above "answer" came from, but do both agree and disagree. When a vehicle is repossessed then naturally enough the person doing the repossession is going to reclaim the vehicle along with whatever personal property may happen to be inside the vehicle.

If the "owner" of the vehicle wishes to reclaim the personal property (for whatever reason, but basically because he/she can not reclaim the vehicle itself,) then that owner must be afforded a supervised opportunity to remove personal property from the vehicle within some period of days. The reason for that is very simple. The "lienholder" has no lawful claim upon the contents of the vehicle, (and the "repo man" has absolutely no legal claim to the vehicle at all, EXCEPT as being the "agent of" the lienholder (acting on the lienholder's instructions and in the lienholder's steed). The lienholder has a cliam only upon the vehicle itself. To put it simply: Generally, anything attached to, bolted onto or permanently made a part of the vehicle stays with/on the vehicle (i.e., stereo, speakers, wheels, tires and so forth). On the other hand, actual personal property (i.e., glasses, CD's, child's car seats, umbrellas, money, checks, etc.,) belong to the "owner" of the vehicle, NOT the lienholder.
