You returned a car you purchased because you could not pay for it?

That is called voluntary repossession. You will be required to pay the difference in what the lender sells the vehicle for and the balance on the note after that amount is applied to the loan. You did avoid repossession fees by voluntarily turning the car in. Your credit will also show this repossession for 7 years.


How does a willing reposession effect your credit?

Do you have to finish payments after your car is reposessed?

You have to pay off the debt. The car itself will take car of part of that when the lienholder sells it at auction. You'll have to make up the difference between what it sold for and what you still owed (and you'll have to pay for the repossession expenses also). If by some miracle the car sold for more than the debt and the repossession expenses, then you should get a check back for the balance. However, how they'll handle this is almost certainly not by having you "finish payments". Call the lienholder and find out what they want you to do.


Is there a statute of limitations on how much time they have to collect after a repossession?
