How long after a repossession can a lender come after you for the money owed still?
When the vehicle is recovered, it is taken to a lot, inventoried, and eventually taken to auction. The amount received at auction is applied to the amount owed, including repo fees and collection fees. In the event the lender obtained a judgment against you for the unpaid balance, they have 10 years from the date the auction proceeds were applied to the loan. If there is no judgment, they have 7 years.

What does a voluntary repossession do to your credit?
Any repossession will negatively impact your credit. Organizations using the credit report do not differentiate between voluntary and non-voluntary.

Generically, a repossession is considered the same as a chargeoff or writeoff, so the impact on the credit score may be anywhere from 50 to 200 points, depending on one's personal credit situation.

Yes, and many people do object to their vehicles being repossessed, before and after the repossession. Unfortunately, your objection will have little effect.

There are few legal options available to you to avoid this aside from paying the loan current.

What are my rights if a commercial vehicle is illegally repossessed?
Well, first, you'd have to explain how the repossession was illegal. There really isn't any such thing as "illegal repossession"... repossession is a legal process by which a lien holder can recovery property which does belong to them in response to a delinquency of payment or violation of the contract.A vehicle which has no grounds for repossession but was taken was not repossessed - that's theft, plain and simple, and if that's the case, then you'd file a police report, an investigation would commence, arrests would be made, and you'd either recover your vehicle or get an insurance payment if the vehicle was unrecoverable. I'm guessing that's not the case, since you're asking this question here.State laws on time which a delinquency must continue for before seizure of assets can be made varies by state... if this law was violated, then you're going to have to lawyer up and take the legal route against the lienholder (the repossessor is not liable in this instance, as they are contractors following the instructions of the lien holder).A criminal act on the part of the repossession agency has occurred if...A locked gate is breached in the course of the repossession.A secured building is unlawfully entered in the course of the repossession.A vehicle other than the one being repossessed was entered without permission during the course of the repossessionProperty damage occurs during the course of the repossession.In the case of a commercial vehicle, a cargo payload is taken with the vehicle.A trailer attached to the repossessed vehicle which itself is not up for repossession is taken with the vehicle.In those instances, a police report needs to be filed. However, if the repossession itself is legit, that still won't get you the vehicle back.

You might even, still politely, suggest some sort of compensation for you inconvience. Also ask for the contact number of the repossession agency. Call them and notify them also of the wrongful repossession. Suggest also to them some sort of compensation for your incovenience.

If you are not satisfied with how quickly your vehicle is being returned, push the auto theft charges.
