Yes....yes....yes.....

The dealer will list it on your credit as "surrendered" or "voluntary repossession" and will go after you for a "cancellation" fee. If you don't pay that, they can post them on your credit report as well.

Some dealers have a satisfaction clause, but it's normally 3-5 days. Beyond that, they are not obligated to cancel the contract, and can sue you for the remainder of the note. Some also try to re-sell your car at a reduced price, and sue you for the ballance of that as well.

Either way, the result of them repossessing it for non payment or volutary repo, it will be put into your credit file.

Why people prefer only DA Payment terms?

Isn't it the bank is fully aware of the order is under certain # days of D/A so you will have the first priority to collect the payment before the account holder. This is how the payment term document against acceptance stands.


Is it legal to put stop payment o a check?

Yes. It is perfectly legal for the person who issued the check to put a stop payment on it. However, if the check was issued to pay for some goods or services offered by someone or for a loan, the receiving entity also has a legal claim and hence can file a police complaint against you for not making the payment. So, you need to talk to the person to whom you gave the check to settle the amount amicably before you issue the stop payment.


Should you apply for a credit increase before or after applying for a vehicle loan?

What is car loan calculator?

A car loan calculator is a tool used to figure out how much your monthly car payment will be, based upon the cost of the vehicle, the number of years you'll be making the payments, the interest rate and the down payment. It is a very useful way to see how much you can afford to spend on a car, particularly before you go looking at vehicles.


Can you put a stop payment on a check after it is cashed?

No. A stop payment can be issued only before the check payment is made by the bank. If you try a stop payment after the bank has paid for the check, the bank wont accept it because the stop payment instruction is useless now and cannot be executed.

If a vehicle has a previous lien against it and you purchase it from a dealer do you have anything to worry about with the lien?

The lien is still valid, even though you purchased the vehicle through a dealership. The lienholder's name should be on the vehicle title, though. If you were not notified of the lien before buying the vehicle, see the dealership and ask for "rescission of contract"--this means the dealership will take back the vehicle and refund your money. If the dealership is unwilling or unable to do so, contact you state's attorney general.


When signing a new contract does the dealership have to give the buyer a 45-day grace period before the first payment?

Is it illegal to sell a vehicle with a lien on it?

In most cases, no. It is done all the time. Consider that when someone trades in a vehicle that is still owed on, they are in effect selling the vehicle to the dealership. That the dealership writes the loan for the new car, and transfers the unpaid balance of the first to it, means only that the dealership bought the car, but the buyer of the new car (the former owner) paid for it. Additionally, when the vehicle is sold, before the lien holder will release the title, the unpaid balance must be paid.

I have not paid for your car in over a year and they will not come get it?

This is something I never heard of. You definetly want to make arrangements of returning this car to the lender or dealership. Call them and make arrangements. Returning the vehicle is better when it comes to your credit. Once this vehicle is auctioned off and sold, you will be left with a remaining balance. Once you receive notice of this, you can actually prepare to negotiate a settlement of .10 cents on the dollar, or 30% percent of the balance. Get everything in writing before making your final payment. This is something I never heard of. You definetly want to make arrangements of returning this car to the lender or dealership.
