Things may differ state to state, but in MI the lien holder basically owns the vehicle. I have the title to my truck, but it's got a big stamp on it from the credit union. The right to repossess the vehicle is in the paperwork that was signed at the closing of the loan, which also lists the vehicle as collateral for the money that was borrowed. If you can't pay the money back they have the right to take the vehicle because it's worth roughly the same amount.

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.
