Although late payments (especially those over 60 days delequint) will have a strong negative effect on your score much like a repossession, the repossession will have a more severe, long-term negative effect than a late payment. Late payments dilute themselves relatively quickly as time passes - an initial 30 day late will hurt your score by about 50 points, but after a year this will diminish to about half, and will continue to do so over time, whereas a repossession's effects will take many more years to diminish.
Also keep in mind that in the future, whenever you wish to purchase a new or used car on credit, you will have to disclose your repossession to the dealer. This may hinder your ability to attain such credit. If you feel you are unable to make a scheduled payment on your automobile, call your creditor and see if you can arrange a new payment plan. Repossession is a costly procedure and creditors would like to avoid it if at all possible. Communication is key - it never hurts to ask for assistance.
Hope this helps!

What are the consequences of a voluntary repossession of a mobile home?
Under US law as I understand it, any repossession is detrimental to your credit record. Both a voluntary repossession or a standard repossession have the same effect on your credit rating. Both will appear as repossessions, and either will result in a negative mark on your credit history. Any repossession will appear on a credit report for 7.5 years from the date of first delinquency. You will likely see your credit score drop significantly, as having a repossession in your credit history marks you as a credit risk. The only advantage that I see in doing a 'voluntary' repossession is that it may cost you less in legal fees. In general, I would encourage you to work with the lender to find ways of keeping your home and coming to some kind of agreement on reduced monthly payments, or even weekly payments which will involve a lower interest rate. Good luck with it.
