Notice is not necessary in all state prior to repossession. In fact it is not necessary in most states.

If you have paid current on the loan, and the repossession occurred anyway, this is likely a communication lag between the lender and the repossession company. It happens often. Contact your lender and explain what happened. Be patient and polite--they are not required to return the vehicle. They likely will because they want your money not the car. Ask the lender how you can get your vehicle back. Ask them who has your vehicle, and call that company to explain the vehicle was "wrongfully repossessed" and why. Again, be patient and polite--these people have your car.

Will the car owner be notified prior to the repossession?

In a few states, you will get a "XX day right to cure" notice. But when it comes time to repo the car, NO. If you know you are in default, the lender has been begging you to pay something,ect., GET YOUR PP OUT. The lender and the repo company doesnt want your PP. They dont want to deal with it anyway. Then when its repo time, you can go on about life without the interruption of redeeming your PP and additional cost. It just doesnt have to be that way. NO you will not be notified

If your car was repossessed without notice and it was damaged when you went to get it back what can you do about it?

Mike, dont know what state you are in sooo cant say if you had to have "notice" or "repo papers". The LENDER is liable for Damage to the car. You will need some type of proof that damage was done during the repo. Cant just pop up and say, "oH'they broke my car". Tooo many folks try that so lenders are just not falling for it. But, get your ducks in a row and call the lender,explain what proof you have and try to reach a settlement. If that fails, call an attorney.
