It of course effects your credit score. To learn more about your credit score visit either Experian, TransUnion or Equifax.

If possible, return it back to the dealer you purchased the car from.

My car was repo. and what happens when i can't pay the difference. can i make payments instead paying it all back at once?

You can negotiate payments, but I always recommend saving at least 30% percent of the remaining balance and negitiating a settlement. Get everything in writing before making your negotiated final payment. Then request a letter stating that the account is now "Paid in Full", instead of "Settled for less". Very important that you request this, so that they do not sell the remaining balance to a third party collection agency.

Can i get in my car and drive away before getting towed?

If you are fast enough !

You definetly will not get away from this repossesion, they will find you eventually. What you should do is contact the lender and do a volunteer repossesion. This will look better on your credit report. Then when they sell this vehicle in an auction you will have a remaining balance less then the purchase price (hopefully). After you receive notice of this amount you can settle on this debt for .10 cents on the dollar or 30% of the balance. Get everything in writing first before making your final payment with the lender/collection agency.

What is this in reference to? If you're talking about getting in your car and attempting to drive away while your car's being hooked up, it might be illegal. You will have to discuss with the driver why you're being towed and if there's anything you can do about it. If in doubt, call the police.

Is there a time restriction where the repo man can't knock on my door?

Yes, per the FDCPA (Fair Debt Collections Practices Act) contact can only be made from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM seven days a week, at your home. There is no restriction on contact at your place of employment. Here's the thing, in most cases, if it is 10 or 11 o'clock PM and the repo agent sees your lights and TV on, he may do you the courtesy of letting you remove your personal items in exhange for the keys. Two reasons for this: first, if your personals stay in the car you will pay a storage fee to get them back; and second, with the key he can more easily unlock the shifter and steering column and can more safely tow your vehicle. The second part is important to you because if you redeem it, you will not be redeeming a stripped transmission/differential or wrinkled fender.

Can I cosign for my boyfriends vehicle?

If you are credit-worthy, you may be able to co-sign for your boyfriend's vehicle. But be aware that if he fails to make payments for any reason, you are liable for the debt and the creditor will come after you and possibly file suit against you. - I wouldn't do it.

When can a car be legally repossed?

After 60 days on non-payment. I always reccommend to do return the vehicle to the lender yourself. It looks better on your credit as a self repossesion. Then once the vehicle is auctioned off and sold, you will be left with a remaining balance. Save at least .10 cents on the dollar or 30% of the balance in a savings account. Once this is saved, call the creditor/lender and negotiate a settlement. Get the agreed amount in writing that same day before making your final payment. Then request another letter stating the account is now paid in full - instead of settled for less. Good luck!

Auto financing in case of death?

I hope I am interepreting your questions correctly. If you have a deceased individual with an auto loan then contact that lender and explain the situation. Usually this loan will no longer exist, and the vehicle will be picked up. If there is a co-signer on that loan, then that person will be responsible for that debt, and should take full ownership of that vehicle.
