Usually, you get to keep at least one car in a bankruptcy, and in fact it's rare the bankruptcy will ask you to sell any car, unless it's clearly a luxury vehicle not required for work. So your Mustang is safe but your Rolls Royce might be in danger. If you owe money on the car, you can reaffirm the debt, and thus keep the car and the original payment plan. Alternately, it's up to the creditor -- they can repossess immediately if you don't reaffirm.

If someone files for bankruptcy can the Credit Card company take money out of your checking account to try and retrieve some of the debt after they were informed you were filing bankruptcy?

No, once a bankruptcy is filed an automatic "stay" is in place, and creditors cannot pursue any collection action. Even outside of bankruptcy, a creditor cannot arbitrarily garnish a debtor's bank account. The creditor needs to file and win a lawsuit, be granted a judgment and then enforce the judgment as a bank account garnishment.
