When selling a car, you typically keep the license plates and transfer them to your new vehicle. The buyer will need to get new plates for the car they are purchasing.

Can the bank cancel the plates on a car they have repossessed?

They can turn them in to the DMV, but do you want to take a chance on them doing that? Remember, the plates are yours and registered to you. If someone gets the plates and throws them on another vehcle and gets in an accident, say a hit and run and someone writes down the tag #, expect the police to come knocking on your door. To avoid a hassle, remove the plates from the vehicle. You have the right to since they belong to you, not the lender. If the car was taken before you could remove the plates, you have to get them back from the tow company. If your there when they are taking the car, the tow guy has to let you remove the plates. The plates do not stay with the vehicle and the tow co nor the lender has a right to keep them.

What can you do if your car was repossessed and they took the plates then your license was suspended for not returning the plates?

Contact your state DMV and ask them what them requirements are for reinstating your DL. You may have to contact the LENDER to obtain the plates. You have several options you can try to get the plates back from the repo co....if they refuse to give them to you you can go to the police and report the plates as stolen and they will give you a form to take to DMV. Or you can report them as lost to dmv and go from there.Or contact the bank and see if you can get a letter stating they have the plates because in some states the plates stay with the vehicle in a repo.You are going to have to pay a good sized fee to DMV to get your DL reinstated.Good luck!! You can email the National Finance Adjusters and ask them if your state requires the plates to stay with the vehicle or with the debtor. Their email is homeoffice@nfa.org Why involve other organisations to solve a two party problem?? Call your DMV,read your driver handbook,ect. and find out if your state requires the plates to remain with the vehicle. IF it does, then your DL was suspended for another reason that you cant/will never figure out. IF it does not, then the lender needs to return your plates and/or you neeed an attorney.


Does the repo men take the vehicle with the plates on it?

In most states the plates stay with the car. If it gets repo'd it will definitely be taken with the plates on it. If you are in a state where you keep the plates, they will give them back to you with your bag of personal items. I am not aware of state where they give you back the plates. Remember that the plates are registered to the car, so once the car is gone the plates are essentially useless to you. Also, if you happen to be asking this in order to somehow try to evade the repo or avoid it in some way...don't try. You may hide it for a few days, maybe a month, but eventually they will get it and you'll just owe them more money in the long run. Also, putting wrong plates on the car is not going to work (haha). Repo guys check the VIN number. Thanks.
